INTERVENTIONAL
Parenteral Nutrition Support for Patients With Pancreatic Cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the additional nutrition support is improving the nutritional status of patients suffering cancer caxechia or not.
To examine the impact of additional parenteral nutrition (APN) we prospective evaluated 32 pts suffering APC and progressive cachexia. This assay is based on a bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) as a proven tool for nutritional investigation in patients with chronic disease. Phase angle, determined by BIA, has been found to be a prognostic indicator in several chronic and malignant conditions, such as HIV, liver cirrhosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease lung cancer and pancreatic cancer.
These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.
