Cancer therapies, notably chemotherapy, have significantly improved survival rates and quality of life for many patients. However, chemotherapy's cytotoxic effects also impact normal cells, leading to adverse effects, including metabolic disturbances. This paper explores the link between chemotherapy and metabolic syndrome, a cluster of metabolic abnormalities that increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes. Understanding the predictors, such as specific chemotherapy regimens, patient characteristics, comorbid conditions, lifestyle factors, and genetic variations, is crucial for formulating personalized care plans and preventive strategies. Research indicates that older age, female gender, pre-existing diabetes, and baseline obesity are significant predictors of metabolic syndrome in cancer patients. Chemotherapy-induced molecular changes, including insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue fibrosis, contribute to the development of this syndrome. Effective management strategies require a multidisciplinary approach, incorporating lifestyle interventions, pharmacological treatments, and regular monitoring. This paper underscores the importance of personalized medicine in mitigating the risks associated with metabolic syndrome and improving long-term health outcomes for cancer survivors. Future research directions include longitudinal studies to track metabolic health over time, mechanistic studies to uncover the molecular pathways involved, and the development of integrative therapies. By adopting comprehensive care models, healthcare providers can enhance the overall quality of life for cancer survivors, addressing both cancer and metabolic health challenges.
