The Nutritional Status of Chemo-radiotherapy Patients

NCT01937273 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 50

Last updated 2020-07-16

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cancer patients are one of the patient groups at highest risk for the development of malnutrition. Anti-cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy, can further heighten the risk due to the nutrition-related toxicities experienced during this time.

This study aims to baseline the nutritional status of chemo-radiotherapy patients undergoing treatment at the Alan Walker Cancer Care Centre (Darwin), identify contributors to nutritional deterioration and determine if there is a difference between Indigenous and non-Indigenous patients.
