Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Currently there is a lack of evidence for recommending specific oral supplements (OS) for nutritional support in patients with cancer, including leucine-enriched supplements.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Dietary Supplement: Standard hypercaloric hyperproteic oral nutritional supplement
  • Dietary Supplement: Leucine-enriched hypercaloric hyperproteic oral nutritional supplement
N/A

Detailed Description

Appropriate clinical trials that compare anthropometric and biochemical changes in nutritional parameters and clinical outcomes in patients with cancer-induced sarcopenia are required
