Abstract | OBJECTIVES: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of serum bone turnover markers for detection of bone metastasis in patients with prostate cancer (PCa) and to assess the usefulness of these markers as predictors of mortality from PCa. METHODS: RESULTS: Serum total alkaline phosphatase, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, 1CTP, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5 b, and PSA levels were significantly elevated in patients with bone metastasis, and correlated significantly with the extent of disease on bone scintigraphy. Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis demonstrated that serum PSA and 1CTP were significant predictors of bone metastasis. Receiver operating characteristics analyses showed that serum 1CTP level was the most reliable predictor of bone metastasis (area under the curve = 0.85). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed that only serum 1CTP was an independent prognostic factor for PCa-related death. CONCLUSIONS: Serum 1CTP level was a more reliable marker than the others to detect bone metastatic spread and to predict survival probability in PCa patients with bone metastasis.
