Bone is the second most common metastatic site in patients presenting with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Bisphosphonates have been approved to reduce bone pain and the risk of skeletal-related events (SREs) in such patients; however, new research suggests bisphosphonates do not improve survival or prevent development of SREs.
