Approximately 60-70% of patients with advanced prostate carcinoma (CaP) suffer from cachexia, one of the most devastating conditions associated with advanced malignant disease. The pathophysiology of cachexia is multifactorial, and several cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) and interleukin 1 (IL-1), IL-6, and IL-8, may be involved. The objective of the current study was to determine whether cachexia associated with advanced CaP is accompanied by increased serum levels of TNFalpha, IL-1beta, IL-6, and IL-8.
