Weight gain after adjuvant TAC (docetaxel, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide) chemo
 
http://www.abstract.asco.org/AbstView_65_32925.html

"Conclusions: Though larger scale prosepctive randomized trials should be required to get the definitive conclusion on this matter, we think that current dexamethasone premedication may aggravate weight gain than to prevent it. If shorter schedule is as much effective as longer one, abbreviated and reduced dexamethasone premedication is more helpful for patients having TAC chemotherapy."

Hopeful
