Study to Assess Efficacy of Risedronate in Preventing Bone Loss in Postmenopausal Women Treated for Breast Cancer (RISAROS)

October 30, 2013 updated by: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo Controlled Study to Assess Efficacy of Oral 35 mg Per Week Risedronate in Preventing Bone Loss in Postmenopausal Women With Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy for Breast Cancer.

Aromatase inhibitor therapy is in France the adjuvant reference treatment for postmenopausal women with early-stage breast cancer. This treatment induces bone loss and a higher risk of fractures.

This study aimed to document the effect of bisphosphonate therapy in preventing bone loss and osteoporotic fractures in postmenopausal women with aromatase inhibitor treatment for breast cancer
