Effect of Zoledronic Acid on Chemotherapy Induced Bone Loss

Summary

Primary Objective: * Evaluate the effect of zoledronate on change in bone mineral density (BMD) at the total lumbar spine and femoral neck. Secondary Objectives: * Evaluate the effect of zoledronate on change in BMD at the total hip * Evaluate risk factors for developing osteoporosis on chemotherapy * Determine correlative markers for response to zoledronate 4. Evaluate zoledronate effect on new bone fractures 5. Evaluate the cost-effectiveness of zoledronic acid (with calcium and vitamin D) versus standard treatment (calcium and vitamin D alone).
