About this study

Official title: "The Impact of Enteral Immunonutrition on Gut Microbiota, Intestinal Permeability, and Inflammation of Intestines in Colorectal Cancer as Well as Gastric Cancer Patients - a Randomized Trials"

Enteral immunomodulating nutrition modifies the gastrointestinal microbiota as well as improves the intestinal barrier integrity in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer in the perioperative period. As a consequence, it contributes to the reduction of the incidence of postoperative complications and diarrhea, which is a side effect of anti-cancer treatment often used preoperatively in this group of cancers.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Impact Oral Nestlé Health Science, Cubitan® Nutricia, Nutridrink® Nutricia, Resource 2.0 Nestlé Health ScienceDietary supplement

    Gastric and colorectal cancer patients will receive 1 bottle of immunonutrition or standard nutrition for 10 days. The aims of this study is to assess the effects of these immunonutrition on gut microbiota, intestinal permeability as well as inflammation of intestines in gastric and colorectal cancer patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The impact of immunonutrition on gut microbiota in gastric and colorectal cancer patients.

    The composition of gut microbiota (bacteria and fungi) will be assessed from stools. The amounts of bacteria/fungi will be presented using bioinformatics tools and there is no precisely described units (only the total number).

    Measured: at baseline and after 7 and 10 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The impact of immunonutrition on intestinal permeability in gastric and colorectal cancer patients.

    The ratio lactulose/mannitol will be described to assess intestinal permeability. There is no units. Only ratio of two numbers.

    Measured: at baseline and after 7 and 10 days

  2. The impact of immunonutrition on intestines in gastric and colorectal cancer patients.

    The calprotecin will be assessed. The unit is μg/g.

    Measured: at baseline and after 7 and 10 days

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?

The impact of immunonutrition on gut microbiota in gastric and colorectal cancer patients. (time frame: at baseline and after 7 and 10 days). 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?
