EAT-ING: Enhancing Anticancer Treatment Safety Via Immunomodulatory Nutritional Support in Advanced Gastrointestinal Cancers (EAT-ING)

EAT-ING: Enhancing Anticancer Treatment Safety Via Immunomodulatory Nutritional Support in Advanced Gastrointestinal Cancers: A Single-Center Randomized Trial
The use of immunomodulants in patients with GI cancer has been progressively gaining attention in the last years, as a high-calorie-high-protein nutritional blend enriched in immunonutrients has shown efficacy in several studies in reducing the risk of post-operative complications and the length of stay of patients undergoing major cancer surgery.
The guidelines for the nutritional management of patients with cancer agree on the utility of nutritional support, whenever it is necessary, to improve clinical outcomes, and the efficacy and tolerability of treatments.
To our knowledge, this is among the first clinical trial specifically designed to evaluate the role of immunomodulants-enriched ONS in combination with nutritional counseling in reducing serious AEs rate in patients with advanced GI cancers undergoing systemic treatments.

Detaljerad beskrivning
The aim of the present project is to evaluate, with a randomized open-label study, the effect of providing nutritional counselling combined with a high-protein and high-calorie ONS enriched with immunonutrients named LH BLU in reducing serious AEs rate in patients with advanced GI cancers undergoing first-line treatment.

Experimentell: LH BLU
Patients of interventional group will receive the immunomodulant LH BLU and nutritional counseling consisting of a personalized dietary prescription (including sample meal plans and recipe suggestions) tailored on personal eating patterns and food preferences in order to achieve estimated protein-calorie requirements and taking into account chewing and swallowing abilities.

LH BLU is a FSMP containing fats, carbohydrates, proteins and soluble fibers.
In addition, LH BLU contains L-Glutamine, carnosine, vitamin D3, zinc, selenium, fructooligosaccharide, inulin and botanical extracts.
