Evaluation of the Advantage in the Use of Enteral Nutrition in Children Treated for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

October 26, 2023 updated by: DEUTSCH Hélène, Central Hospital, Nancy, France

This is a multicenter retrospective study (Reims and Nancy), with data collection over 12 years from 01/01/2010 to 12/31/2022 Patients included are children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia between 2010 and 2021 in the 2 centers.

Patients will be categorized into 3 groups:

  • No nutritional support
  • Support by enteral nutrition
  • Parenteral nutrition support Their nutritional status will be assessed at the end of induction, at 6 months and then at 12 months from diagnosis.

The main objective of this study is therefore to compare the nutritional status of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia depending on whether they received enteral or parenteral nutritional support during their treatment.

The secondary objective is to evaluate the occurrence of complications during treatment according to the nutritional support received.
