Nutrition Intervention Among Stem Cell Recipients: Post Hospital Discharge

NCT02791347 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 52

Last updated 2018-02-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Chemotherapy conditioning, preceding Stem Cell Transplantation (SCT), has been associated with severe gastrointestinal toxicity, commonly compromising patients' food intake, nutritional status and functioning level. Malnutrition has been associated with worse functional status, reduced survival, increased rate of infections, complications, hospitalizations, and therapy toxicity in oncology patients.

To date, there is no Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) assessing the impact of a nutrition intervention on SCT patients who remain at risk of malnutrition even 100 days post SCT. The proposed study is a single center, prospective, RCT with a parallel design that aims to assess the impact of a nutrition intervention on the nutritional and functional statuses of SCT recipients 100 days post SCT.
