Loss of appetite in patients with cancer: an update on characterization, mechanisms, and palliative therapeutics.
Purpose of review: Over the past year, loss of appetite in patients with cancer has continued to be an area of active investigation. This review provides an update of recently published findings.
Recent findings: Despite the emergence of new cancer therapeutic agents, this symptom of loss of appetite continues to trouble patients, and it continues to be associated with poor survival. Recent preclinical research promises to lead to newer approaches and newer, more effective palliative agents. Recent clinical research shows that agents such as olanzapine, anamorelin, and cannabis either do or might palliate this symptom.
Summary: Loss of appetite in patients with cancer remains an important area of clinical and research focus. Recent published data provide greater clarity with respect to how to palliate this symptom. Today, although clinicians have more options to palliate cancer-associated loss of appetite than ever before, questions remain unanswered about how to palliate this symptom optimally and how to improve the quality of life of patients who suffer from it.
