Abstract
Bone is one of the most common metastatic sites in metastatic breast cancer (mBC). The presence of bone metastases can lead to various complications including pain, spinal cord compression, hypercalcaemia, pathological fractures. The treatment of bone metastases of breast cancer (BC) is mainly based on the biological characteristics of the primary tumour, but there are also specific treatments for bone lesions including bone modifiers, radionuclides, or localized treatments such as radiotherapy, surgery or vertebroplasty. In this review, we analyse the state of art of the common treatments and the advances of bone metastases of BC. Finally, we summarize the state of art of biomarkers in diagnosis, prognosis and prediction to therapy.
