Oncological validation of bone turnover markers c-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (1CTP) and peptides n-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P1NP) in patients with prostate cancer and bone metastases.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Bone formation markers c-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (1CTP) and peptides n-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P1NP) were reported to be increased in patients with prostate cancer (PC) and bone metastases. The objective of the presented study was to investigate the utility of serum 1CTP and P1NP values in the diagnosis of bone metastases and in predicting oncological outcome in patients with PC.

Methods

In total, serum samples of 186 patients were included retrospectively including 53 (28.50%) benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients and 133 (71.50%) PC-patients. The group of patients with PC consisted of 58 patients with non-metastatic PC (cM0) (43.61%) and 70 (52.63%) patients with bone metastases (cM1b). Serum 1CTP and P1NP were measured b
