Prostate Cancer Research have been investigating how to prevent prostate cancer spreading to the bones as metastatic prostate cancer. Such tumours are a form of prostate cancer, they are not actual bone cancer.
Two key enzymes linked to metastases have been discovered, and the PCR team are now researching what role these enzymes play, and what targeted drugs might be able to help prevent prostate cancer from spreading to the bone. www.prostate-cancer-research.org.uk
