#4171 Prevalence of sarcopenia in patients with advanced intestinal neuroendocrine neoplasms at time of diagnosis

Introduction: Sarcopenia is defined as the loss of muscle mass, strength, and physical performance. First-line therapy for NENs includes somatostatin analogues (SSAs), which could be responsible for malabsorption conditions (e.g. exocrine pancreatic insufficiency - EPI), that can affect clinical outcomes and treatment response. However, the relationship between sarcopenia and NENs is still lacking in the literature.
