Summary

Based on existing literature, we posit that a leucine-restricted diet is safe and well-tolerated in patients with advanced gastric cancer receiving combined chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Patients adhering to this dietary regimen exhibit a significant reduction in serum leucine concentrations, with no notable impact on the serum levels of other amino acids. Furthermore, leucine restriction promotes the activation of immune cells within the tumor microenvironment. When applied in conjunction with chemotherapy and immunotherapy for advanced gastric cancer, this approach demonstrates synergistic anti-tumor efficacy. It is expected to enhance tumor response rates , improve the 1-year survival rate, prolong overall survival (OS), and ultimately optimize patient prognosis.

Conditions

  • Advanced Gastric Cancer

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Lucine-restricted diet

During each hospitalization cycle for combined chemotherapy and immunotherapy, study participants will undergo a 3-day leucine-restricted diet concurrently with PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy administration; following this 3-day intervention period, the dietary restriction will be discontinued, and patients will gradually resume a normal diet.
