Cachexia is a condition known as wasting disorder, which causes extreme weight loss and muscle wasting. It is a symptom of various chronic conditions, such as cancer, chronic renal failure, COPD, HIV or AIDS, and multiple sclerosis. The difference between cachexia and other types of weight loss is that it isn’t involuntary. People who developed cachexia, don’t lose weight because they’re trying to trim down with diet or exercise, but because they eat less due to a diversity of reasons. Simultaneously, their metabolism changes, which causes their body to break down too much muscle.
According to the research article published by Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, it is estimated that over 160,000 people in the United States visit the hospital with a cachexia diagnosis every year, with approximately 1.5–2 million cachexia-related deaths per year, across the globe. Several approaches to develop cachexia and muscle wasting treatments have failed to be successful in phase III clinical trials, but new approaches are currently in development. Given the high prevalence and very high mortality associated with cachexia, advances are urgently needed for patients worldwide.
