Summary
Alteration in the sense of taste is a frequent symptom that is closely linked to chemotherapy exposure, lowering quality of life and nutritional status. Malnutrition is of particular concern in muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), as malnutrition is associated with many negative outcomes from radical cystectomy (the surgical procedure in MIBC), which include higher morbidity, poor wound healing, and higher rate of infections after surgery.
It is essential to understand taste changes among participants receiving chemotherapy for MIBC to create future treatment trials.
