J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 146:106099. [PMID: 37660446 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2023.106099] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
Bone regeneration is a rapidly growing field that seeks to develop new biomaterials to regenerate bone defects. Conventional bone graft materials have limitations, such as limited availability, complication, and rejection. Glass ionomer cement (GIC) is a biomaterial with the potential for bone regeneration due to its bone-contact biocompatibility, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness. GIC is a two-component material that adheres to the bone and releases ions that promote bone growth and mineralization. A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed-MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science databases and registered in the PROSPERO database to determine the evidence regarding the efficacy and bone-contact biocompatibility of GIC as bone cement. Out of 3715 initial results, thirteen studies were included in the qualitative synthesis. Two tools were employed in evaluating the Risk of Bias (RoB): the QUIN tool for assessing in vitro studies and SYRCLE for in vivo. The results indicate that GIC has demonstrated the ability to adhere to bone and promote bone growth. Establishing a chemical bond occurs at the interface between the GIC and the mineral phase of bone. This interaction allows the GIC to exhibit osteoconductive properties and promote the growth of bone tissue. GIC's bone-contact biocompatibility, ease of preparation, and cost-effectiveness make it a promising alternative to conventional bone grafts. However, further research is required to fully evaluate the potential application of GIC in bone regeneration. The findings hold implications for advancing material development in identifying the optimal composition and fabrication of GIC as a bone repair material.

Calcium phosphate bone cements as local drug delivery systems for bone cancer treatment. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2023; 148:213367. [PMID: 36921461 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2023.213367] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2022] [Revised: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023]
Abstract
Bone cancer is usually a metastatic disease, affecting people of all ages. Its effective therapy requires a targeted drug administration locally at the cancer site so that the surrounding healthy organs and tissues stay unharmed. Upon a thorough literature search, a tremendous number of published articles are reporting on development of calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) for the treatment of a variety of diseases, such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteomyelitis, and other musculoskeletal disorders. However, just a limited number of research employs CPCs specifically for bone cancer treatment. In this review article, we study the factors influencing the local drug release from CPCs and particularly focus on bone cancer therapy. Finally, we locate the deficiencies in the literature regarding this specific topic and propose which other perspectives should be considered and discussed in future articles.

Abstract
Metastatic bone lesions are common among patients with advanced cancers. While chemotherapy and radiotherapy may be prescribed immediately after diagnosis, the majority of severe metastatic bone lesions are treated by reconstructive surgery, which, in some cases, is followed by postoperative radiotherapy or chemotherapy. However, despite recent advancements in orthopedic surgery, patients undergoing reconstruction still have the risk of developing severe complications such as tumor recurrence and reconstruction failure. This has led to the introduction and evaluation of poly (methyl methacrylate) and inorganic bone cements as local carriers for chemotherapeutic drugs (usually, antineoplastic drugs (ANPDs)). The present work is a critical review of the literature on the potential use of these cements in orthopedic oncology. While several studies have demonstrated the benefits of providing high local drug concentrations while minimizing systemic side effects, only six studies have been conducted to assess the local toxic effect of these drug-loaded cements and they all reported negative effects on healthy bone structure. These findings do not close the door on chemotherapeutic bone cements; rather, they should assist in materials selection when designing future materials for the treatment of metastatic bone disease.

JOURNAL OF SPINE SURGERY (HONG KONG) 2019; 5:273-284. [PMID: 31380482 PMCID: PMC6626732 DOI: 10.21037/jss.2019.04.11] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2018] [Accepted: 04/17/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Present day multimodality treatment with advances in systemic chemotherapy and radiotherapy has increased the survival of patients significantly even in those primary tumours which were once considered to have a poor prognosis. However, local recurrence can severely jeopardise the quality of life and even reduce survival. Hence local recurrence is considered as the worst complication in the management of spinal tumours and the need to achieving adequate local tumour control cannot be overemphasised. Techniques like en bloc resections which significantly reduce the chances of local recurrence are always not possible due to anatomical and technical reasons and sometimes, not feasible in debilitated patients. Local administration of chemotherapeutic drugs has already been recognised as a treatment strategy in the management of bladder and brain tumours. In this literature review, an attempt is made to explore the available evidence in the English literature for local administration of chemotherapeutic drugs in the surgical management of primary, recurrent and metastatic spinal tumours.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The fixation of impending or pathologic fractures is challenging and their successful management can have a favourable impact on the quality of life of the patient. The progression of the metastatic bone disease can cause significant pain and disability but also could result in the loosening and subsequent failure of the implants. To prevent the additional local growth, postoperative radiotherapy is often recommended, and many patients receive endocrine or chemotherapy. AREAS COVERED Several reports support the antineoplastic drugs to bone cement as an adjuvant to improve implant stability as well as to prevent local cancer progression and failure of reconstructive devices used to treat patients with pathologic fractures. The aim of the present review is to present our current understanding on the effect of local delivery of antineoplastic drugs at the bone site. EXPERT COMMENTARY Encouraging evidence support the application of bone cement loaded with antineoplastic drugs to fill defects and strengthen the fixation of orthopaedic implants. This is an inexpensive and safe method that can improve implant stability, prevent local cancer progression and failure of reconstructive devices. To fully evaluate its clinical effectiveness randomized clinical studies are needed.

Abstract
Germanium (Ge)-based glass ionomer cements have demonstrated the ability to balance strength with extended setting times, a unique set of characteristics for aluminum-free glass ionomer cements. However, the mechanical properties of current Ge-based glass ionomer cements significantly deteriorate over time, which jeopardizes their clinical potential. This work explores the effect of incrementally decreasing the Si:Ge ratio in the glass phase of zinc-silicate glass ionomer cements to identify potential mechanisms responsible for the time-induced mechanical instability of Ge-based glass ionomer cements. The influence of Ge was evaluated on the basis of changes in mechanical properties and molecular architecture of the cements over a 180-day period. It was observed that the compressive strength and modulus of the cements were sustained when Si:Ge ratios were ≥1:1, but when Si:Ge ratios are <1:1 these properties decreased significantly over time. These mechanical changes were independent of structural changes in the glass ionomer cement matrices, as the level of metal–carboxylate crosslinks remained constant over time across the various Si:Ge ratios explored. However, it was noted the temporal decline of mechanical properties was proportional to the increased release of degradation byproducts, in particular Ge that was released from the cements in substantially greater quantities than other glass constituents. Unexpectedly, the slowest setting cement (Si:Ge 1:1) was also the strongest; behavior that is uncommon in Si-based glass ionomer cements, supports the potential of Ge-containing glass ionomer cements as injectable bone cements in applications such as percutaneous vertebroplasty.
