Patients are usually diagnosed in advanced stages and, consequently, more than 45% of all patients are diagnosed with cachexia. This syndrome is characterized by a loss of muscle mass with or without fat loss and it cannot be reversed by nutritional support. In the physiopathology of cachexia, generally are present exacerbated inflammation, severe loss of muscle contractile proteins, leading to fatigue and increased mortality. Furthermore, patients with cachexia usually do present lower response rates to anticancer treatments and it is also associated with a worse overall prognosis.\n\nTreatments directed to mitigate muscle loss in these patients are awaited. Cohort studies do suggest a significant positive impact of physical fitness and prognosis in different chronic diseases; however, its impact in advanced NSCLC patients is not clear. Here our aim is to better understand the relationship between cachexia and physical fitness variables (muscle and cardiorespiratory function, body composition, and daily physical activity level) with prognosis and mortality in a group of NSCLC patients, as well as to study the effect of chemotherapy on these variables. Besides that, will be evaluated the skeletal muscle, Treg lymphocytes, and inflammatory biomarkers and compare cachectic and non-cachectic patients.\n\nSixty NSCLC patients will be accrued. Will be assessed the maximum oxygen consumption, daily physical activity, muscle function, muscle morphology, anxiety, depression, performance status, and fatigue pre-treatment. Blood and muscle biopsy samples will be collected. The prognostic impact of these physical fitness variables will be defined, as well as their predictive value in terms of response to anticancer treatments in advanced NSCLC patients.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '100 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'NSCLC patient, current smokers or ex-smokers treatment naive with good Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance status (ECOG-PS).
