Frequency of Cachexia in Ambulatory Cancer Patients and Psychological Burden in Both Patients and Their Primary Caregivers Who are Referred to an Outpatient Supportive Care Clinic

Description

This trial studies the frequency of cachexia in ambulatory cancer patients and the psychological burden in patients and their primary caregivers who are referred to an outpatient supportive care clinic. Studying how often loss of appetite and/or unintentional weight loss (cachexia) occurs in patients seen in the supportive care clinic may help researchers develop new ways to lower stress in patients who suffer from loss of appetite and weight loss as well as their family caregivers.
