This is a multi-center, retrospective observational study in patients with liver cancer (HCC) to assess the impact of sarcopenia (muscle loss) on the prognosis, duration, and tolerance of systemic treatment.
The impact of sarcopenia will be assessed 12 months after the start of chemotherapy. Additionally, other factors affecting prognosis will be investigated to develop a specific predictive model for the risk of death at 12 months. Finally, an external validation of this predictive model for the risk of death will be carried out.
