A Case Crossover Study of Intermittent Fasting in CLL/SLL

Does Timing Matter? A Case Crossover Study of Intermittent Fasting in Patients With CLL/SLL at BC Cancer- Victoria

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 8 Mar 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this study is to compare the 16/8 intermittent fasting method with the 5:2 Method in a subset of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma at BC Cancer- Victoria. The purpose is to find out which is the preferred method by patients and which has the greatest effect on: * cancer cells (lymphyocyte count), * metabolism (autophagy activation), * inflammation (CRP), * gut microbiome (metabolomic analysis). Participants will have already completed our previous trial, "Intermittent Fasting in CLL/SLL" (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04626843) where they followed the 16/8 Fasting Method followed by a minimum of a 3 months washout period, and will now follow the 5:2 Method for 90 days. The same samples and outcome measures will be collected in order to directly compare the two diets in the same patient cohort.
