A benign but locally aggressive tumor that arises from the bone and is composed of mononuclear cells admixed with macrophages and osteoclast-like giant cells. It usually arises from the ends of long bones or the vertebrae. Clinical presentation includes pain, edema, and decreased range of motion in the affected joint.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for bone giant cell tumor has been reported in the published literature.
2 FDA-approved treatments are available for bone giant cell tumor, including DENOSUMAB (BILPREVDA, approved 2025) and DENOSUMAB-MOBZ (OZILTUS, approved 2025).
