Introduction: Patients with bone metastasis due to prostate cancer often present allover reduced bone mineral density. Additionally, patients with bone metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) have a relevant risk for skeletal-related events (SRE). We herein present real-world data (RWD) regarding osteoprotection in mCRPC patients with bone metastasis treated by German urologists in private practice.

We herein present real-world data (RWD) regarding osteoprotection in patients with non-metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (nmHSPC) receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) treated by German urologists in private practice.
Material And Methods: This is a questionnaire-based study including members of d-uo ("Deutsche Uro-Onkologen", German uro-oncologists).
Background: Recent publications suggest a benefit from surgical removal of urothelial carcinoma metastases (UCM) for a subgroup of patients.
Objective: We report the combined experience and outcome of patients undergoing resection of UCM gained at 15 uro-oncologic centers in Germany.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Retrospective survey of 44 patients with distant UCM of the bladder or upper urinary tract who underwent complete resection of all detectable metastases in 15 different German uro-oncological centers between 1991 and 2008.
