Patients with cancer expect prolonged life (overall survival, OS) or better life (quality of life, QOL) from cancer treatments.

Sarcopenia can be considered a component of cachexia, with the bidirectional interplay between adipose tissue and skeletal muscle potentially serving as a molecular mechanism for both conditions. However, the underlying mechanisms differ.
