The Effect of Cachexia On Survival In Metastatic Gastric Cancer Patients Treated With Best Supportive Care

In this retrospective study, we aimed to investigate the effect of cachexia on survival in metastatic gastric cancer (GC) patients treated with best supportive care (BSC) using real-life data. From 2015 to 2019, metastatic GC patients who were treated with BSC were included in this study. The study enrolled 53 metastatic GC patients, 36 (67.9%) were male and 17 (32.1%) were female . The median age of the patients was 66 years. The patients were assigned into two groups, according to body mass index (BMI): BMI
