Breast cancer is the most common malignant cancer among women worldwide, in both developing and developed countries. The survival rate of breast cancer is highly correlated with the degree of disease at the time of diagnosis, with early stage disease conferring superior survival rates. However, the majority of patients with advanced breast cancer develop bone metastases.1 Some studies have reported that increased osteoclast activity in patients with breast cancer and breast cancer bone metastases leads to skeletal-related events (SREs), which include bone fractures, hypercalcemia, nerve compression, and severe pain.2 These skeletal complications, in turn, increase the need for palliative radiation or surgery to bone, limit functional independence, adversely affect quality of life, and continue to cause morbidity of the affected patients.3,4
