Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of Rosmalip® nutritional supplement compared to placebo in subjects with solid cancer for the prevention of infections including COVID-19.

Detailed Description
Cancer patients undergoing oncologic treatments frequently have comorbidities and suffer immunosuppresion, toxicities and exposure to nosocomial pathogens. As a result, they are at increased risk of infections, including COVID-19. It is of utmost importance to find therapies that can prevent infections with as less toxicity as possible. Rosmalip® is a nutritional supplement developed as a molecular nutrition, composed of a rosemary supercritical extract at concentrations approved by EFSA -with in vitro and in vivo antitumor effects that are independent of its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties- in a lipidic vehicle that has shown in preclinical and clinical studies to potentiate innate immunity without apparent toxicity. Being a product of easy synthesis its effects on immunity, inflammation and cancer, could be of interest to prevent and ameliorate infections, including COVID-19.
In this pilot study it is hypothesized that Rosmalip® could help to prevent or ameliorate infections, including COVID-19, in oncologic patients under active treatment. Secondarily, it is also hypothesized to have metabolic beneficial effects.
