About this study

80% of endometrial cancer patients are overweight or obese. Preclinical and clinical data have shown that caloric restriction (CR) protects against organ injury and decreases perioperative morbidity. This is a feasibility trial to evaluate the effect of a 6 week perioperative CR on surgical and patient-reported outcomes in 20 obese newly diagnosed endometrial cancer patients. The intervention will provide individualized CR program, meal replacement products and nutritional counselling sessions.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Perioperative Caloric Restriction Program in people with Obese and Endometrial Cancer, run by Abramson Cancer Center at Penn Medicine at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of completed perioperative caloric restriction program in obese newly diagnosed endometrial cancer patients (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
