Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Bisphosphonates have been used extensively in the treatment and the prevention of skeletal complications associated with bone metastases in patients with breast cancer and prostate cancer.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of zoledronic acid patients with prostate cancer or breast cancer and bone metastasis.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Prostate cancer with at least one cancer-related bone lesion with or without hormonal treatment.
* Breast cancer with at least one cancer-related bone lesion
* Negative pregnancy test at screening in case of child-bearing potential and Performance status ECOG 0-2
* Normal liver and kidney function
* Prior surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy is allowed. At least 4 weeks must have elapsed since the completion of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy to breast or bone.

Exclusion Criteria

* Prior treatment with bisphosphonates within 6 months before study start, and during treatment with zoledronic acid. Known hypersensitivity to zoledronic acid or other bisphosphonates. Corrected (adjusted for serum albumin) serum calcium concentration \< 8.0 mg/dl (2.00 mmol/L) or ≥12.0mg/dl (3.00 mmol/L)
* Current/active dental problems including
* infection of the teeth or jawbone
* dental or fixture trauma
* current or previous osteonecrosis of the jaw
* exposed bone in the mouth
* slow healing after dental procedures
* recent (within 6 weeks) or planned dental or jaw surgery (extraction, implants)
* Patients with clinically symptomatic brain metastases. Severe physical or psychological concomitant diseases expected to impair compliance with the provisions of the study protocol or impair the assessment of drug of patient safety
* Clinically significant ascites, NYHA III or IV, cardiac failure, clinically relevant pathologic findings in ECG
* History of diseases with influence on bone metabolism such as Paget´s disease and primary hyperparathyroidism and with need of treatment for osteoporosis (defined according to DVO, T-Score ≤2.5).
* Previous radiation therapy to bone (including therapeutic radioisotopes such as strontium 89) within 1 month
