Brief Summary

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

Zoledronic acid selectively binds to bone and protects it from being metastasized by tumor cells. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of zoledronic acid when added to standard therapies in breast cancer patients with metastatic bone lesions.
