    • The present invention relates to therapy and the use of agents in the therapy of cachexia and wasting syndromes due to diseases other than congestive heart failure. Cachexia occurs in a number of other chronic diseases, like liver cirrhosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic renal failure, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis. Cachexia and weight loss are linked to inflammatory processes and they are linked to increased mortality and/or morbidity. Cytokine activation is a potential causal mechanism for the development of cachexia also in these other diseases. The invention describes a method of treating or ameliorating body wasting or cachexia in a patient with liver cirrhosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic renal failure, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis in a patient. The method comprises administering to the patient an effective amount of a compound that is able to reduce the production, absorption and/or the effect of an endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide; LPS). The invention describes also a method of treating, preventing or ameliorating endotoxin-mediated immune activation in body wasting or cachexia in a patient with liver cirrhosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic renal failure, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis. The method comprises administering to the patient an effective amount of a compound that is able to reduce the production, absorption and/or the effect of an endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide; LPS).
