prednisone and Bone Neoplasms

prednisone has been researched along with Bone Neoplasms in 200 studies

Prednisone: A synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid derived from CORTISONE. It is biologically inert and converted to PREDNISOLONE in the liver.
prednisone : A synthetic glucocorticoid drug that is particularly effective as an immunosuppressant, and affects virtually all of the immune system. Prednisone is a prodrug that is converted by the liver into prednisolone (a beta-hydroxy group instead of the oxo group at position 11), which is the active drug and also a steroid.

Bone Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer located in bone tissue or specific BONES.

Timeframe: From start of study treatment until 4 weeks after last study treatment, up to 65 months

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Bone Fractures

Treatment-emergent fractures were adverse events identified as fractures that occurred after start of study treatment until the end of the treatment period. All bone fractures and bone-associated events (e.g., osteoporosis) were reported as either AEs, or SAEs if the criteria of SAE were met, regardless of the investigator's causality assessment. (NCT02043678)

Overall Survival (OS)

OS was defined as the time (months) from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Subjects alive at the survival cut-off date were censored at the last date known to be alive. (NCT02043678)
Timeframe: From randomization until death from any cause, up to 67 months

Radiological Progression Free Survival (rPFS)

rPFS was defined as the time (months) from the date of randomization to the date of confirmed radiological progression or death (if death occurred before progression) based on independent assessment. (NCT02043678)
