Model 1 adjusts for age, race/ethnicity with center site, treatment, Charlson comorbidity score, and waist circumference. Model 2 adjusts for model 1 covariates plus body fat percentage. Model 3 adjusts for model 1 covariates plus BMI. Model 4 adjusts for model 1 covariates with body fat percentage plus tumor stage. Model 5 adjusts for model 1 covariates with body fat percentage plus physical activity
