Detaljeret beskrivelse
- A sample size of 102 patients was identified to achieve 30% reduction in prevalence of malnutrition at the end of treatment (50% to 20%), with a significance value of 5% (p < 0.05), 90% power. The second calculation was for a sample size of 88 patients for 30% reduction in prevalence of malnutrition at the end of treatment (50% to 20%) with the significance value 5% (p<0.05), 85% power and effect size 70%. Based on these numbers, our aim is to recruit 100 patients, with the assumption that 12% patients would be lost to follow up.
- Randomization will be performed by the minimization procedure with the Minim Program® (http://www-users.york.ac.uk/~mb55/guide/randsery.htm). The allocation will be done according to the following criteria: 1) Stage I-II vs. Stage III-IV; 2) age <65 vs. >=65 year; 3) Body Mass Index <20 vs. >=20 kg/m2 and 4) tumour location (oral cavity-oropharynx-tonsils vs. hypopharynx-larynx vs. nasopharynx).
- Adverse events of chemoradiotherapy will be classified according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events-3.0 (CTCAE v3.0)
- Nutritional status will be assessed by patient-generated subjective global assessment, nutritional risk screening-2002, upper-arm anthropometry (MAC, triceps skinfold thickness, MAMA), Bio-impedance, hand grip strength and weight loss.
- Survival: overall survival, disease-specific survival and disease-free survival are calculated.

Ingen indgriben: Individualised on-demand counselling
Individualized on-demand counselling group was assigned to receive baseline nutritional counselling, that consisted of one dietetic consultation before (chemo)radiotherapy.
During (chemo)radiotherapy on-demand counselling group patients received further counselling only on demand.

Eksperimentel: Intensive nutritional counselling
Intensive nutritional counselling consisted of protocolled counselling given by a dietitian once at baseline and on the 2nd and 4th week of treatment and at the end of chemoradiotherapy.
|
In both study arms, daily estimated energy requirements were calculated from the basal energy requirements according to WHO multiplied by a 1.5 activity factor and protein requirement (g/day) was calculated multiplying ideal body weight (defined as BMI 22) by 1.2 to 1.5.
