Abstract Leukemia, the most common malignancy in childhood, affects individuals from prepubertal girl to women of reproductive age.

1 Introduction CAC is a complex, multifactorial metabolic disorder [1, 2] and a major contributor to morbidity and mortality in the advanced stages of various cancers, including pancreatic, gastric, oesophageal, lung, colorectal, liver, head and neck, ovarian, leukaemia, lymphoma and sarcoma [3-6]. Characterized by involuntary weight loss, CAC leads to severe frailty due to skeletal muscle atrophy, adipose tissue depletion and organ dysfunction [7, 8].
