Early trial tests common bone drug against rare bone cancer

NCT ID NCT03173976

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether a drug called zoledronic acid, commonly used to strengthen bones, can help control tumor growth in patients with a rare bone cancer called chondrosarcoma. The drug is given once before surgery and once after, and researchers are checking if it's safe and if it affects the tumor. The main goal is to see if this approach can help prevent the cancer from coming back after surgery.
