Tolerance to Immunomodulatory Nutritional Therapy in Oncology Patients Undergoing Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Jun 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The importance of nutritional support is established in some types of neoplasms, especially those involving the digestive tract. Recently, nutritional supplements containing substances with proposed immunomodulatory action have been developed. It is still unclear whether the use of immunomodulatory supplements can reduce the occurrence of treatment-related toxicities in oncology, such as radiodermatitis and mucositis. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the use of supplements with immunomodulatory action could reduce the occurrence of cutaneous and mucosal toxicities in oncology treatment, such as radiodermatitis and diarrhea.
