What is being measured

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

  1. The average protein intake (g/day and g/kg/day) corrected for baseline at the end of the first treatment cycle assessed with a 3-day food diary.

    The average protein intake (g/day and g/kg/day) corrected for baseline at the end of the first treatment cycle assessed with a 3-day food diary.

    Measured: end of first treatment cycle (cycle length varies from 2-week, 3-week, 4-week or 6-weeks)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Proportion of subjects with a protein intake above the lower limit of the ESPEN recommendations for protein intake

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 125 mL Fortimel/Nutridrink Compact Protein in people with Colorectal Cancer and Lung Cancer, run by Nutricia Research at 14 sites in 7 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in Netherlands, Belgium, Estonia, Poland, Lithuania and 2 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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 average protein intake (g/day and g/kg/day) corrected for baseline at the end of the first treatment cycle assessed with a 3-day food diary. (time frame: end of first treatment cycle (cycle length varies from 2-week, 3-week, 4-week or 6-weeks)). 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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Jan 2023.
