Chemotherapy-Induced Cachexia and Model-Informed Dosing to Preserve Lean Mass in Cancer Treatment

Abstract: Although chemotherapy is a standard treatment for cancer, it comes with significant side effects. In particular, certain agents can induce severe muscle loss, known as cachexia, worsening patient quality of life and treatment outcomes. 5-fluorouracil, an anti-cancer agent used to treat several cancers, has been shown to cause muscle loss. Experimental data indicates a non-linear dose-dependence for muscle loss in mice treated with daily or week-day schedules. We present a mathematical model of chemotherapy-ind… Show more

“…Historically, sensitivity analyses were conducted after the system reached a steady state; however, now it is common practice to choose a meaningful timepoint, such as immediately following a treatment administration to assess parameter sensitivity. One can extend this analysis to a dynamic sensitivity, by computing S i (t) for 0 ≤ t ≤ t final , to explore the robustness of parameters over a timeframe of interest (Farhang-Sardroodi et al, 2022).…”
