ABSTRACT:
Bone metastasis and the efficacy of drugs in the treatment of malignant tumors such as breast cancer, prostatic cancer and lung cancer that cause the bone metastasis are diagnosed using a marker that reflects the activity of osteoblasts and a marker that reflects the action of osteoclasts.
