Sarcopenia and body mass index predict sunitinib-induced early dose-limiting toxicities in renal cancer patients

BACKGROUND: Little is known on factors predicting sunitinib toxicity. Recently, the condition of low muscle mass, named sarcopenia, was identified as a significant predictor of toxicity in metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) patients treated with sorafenib. We investigated whether sarcopenia could p...
