The KD cohort will receive a rotating 7 day meal plan prepared by the Clinical Translational Science Center (CTSC) at Weill Cornell Medical Center (WCMC) with weekly food pick-up. The meal plan will provide a 3:1 fat to net carbohydrate ratio and calories for weight maintenance (30kcals /kg for a BMI\< 30kg/ m2 and 25 kcal/kg for a BMI.30 kg/ m2.

Patients randomized to the SD group will consume their normal diet plan. They will meet with the dietitian from the CTSC at WCMC weekly and receive standard nutritional counseling from the CTSC. Average intake will be documented through analyzing a 3 day intake pre and post the 4 week period.

Standard Diet (SD)

Vicky Makker, MD

The purpose of this study is to test any good and bad effects of an experimental diet, called a ketogenic diet, in endometrial cancer. A ketogenic diet is one that is very low in carbohydrates (simple and complex sugars). The goal of this diet is for the body to go into a state of ketosis. Ketosis is when the body does not have enough sugar for energy so it burns stored fats which create acids called ketones, which can be used for energy. Researchers hope to learn whether or not a ketogenic diet is well-tolerated and safe to eat before surgery in endometrial cancer patients.

This is a prospective, MSK investigator-initiated, multi-center, randomized, pilot study of KD vs SD consumption in treatment naïve endometrial cancer patients during the presurgical window period between diagnosis and surgical staging.

Quality of Life

Standard diet (SD): Nutrition following the standard recommendations of the German society for nutrition

Nutritional intervention: Ketogenic diet (KD).

Intervention: Nutritional support (hospital) + self support (outpatient phase) with KD

Nutritional intervention: low glycämic and insulinemic" diet (LOGI)

Intervention: Nutritional support (hospital) + self support (outpatient phase) with LOGI

Standard diet (SD)

Nutritional intervention: recommendations to follow a ketogenic diet

Experimental 1: Ketogenic diet (KD).

Nutritional intervention: patients were instructed to follow the "LOGI" diet regimen

Experimental 2: "Low glycämic and insulinemic" diet (LOGI)

The aim of the study is to analyze if a ketogenic diet (KD) compared to either a "low glycämic and insulinemic" (LOGI) diet or to a standard diet (SD) is feasible, safe and tolerable and will improve quality of life and physical performance in patients with Breast Cancer during the rehabilitation phase.

It will be an open-label trial of nutritional intervention for 20 weeks spanning three phases: 3 weeks of stationary intervention, 16 weeks of outhouse phase and one final week of stationary intervention.

Cancer patient's whole body metabolism is characterized by an increased fat oxidation rate and a decrease ability to metabolize glucose for energy demands (insulin resistance). In preliminary studies it was shown, that a fat rich diet allows to spare muscle mass from being reduced due to catabolic mechanisms. The resulting better body composition relates to less fatigue and higher quality of life, the latter was shown in advanced cancer patients for a ketogenic diet.

The aim of the KOLIBRI-study is to analyze if a very fat rich ketogenic diet (KD) or a moderate fat rich "low glycämic and insulinemic" (LOGI) diet compared to a standard low fat diet (SD) are feasible, safe and tolerable and will improve quality of life and physical performance in patients with Breast Cancer during the rehabilitation phase.

The most stringent nutritional regime high in fat and low in carbohydrates is the ketogenic diet (KD) comprised of at least 75% of daily calories via fat (derived from several plant oils, nuts, avocado, butter, cream, cheese, eggs, fatty fish and fat rich meat), balanced in protein (1.4 g/kg body weight/day) and very low in carbohydrates (approx. 20-30 grams per day, derived from salad, vegetable, some berries or fruits, and milk products like yoghurt).

A less strict but even lower in carbohydrates and richer in fat and protein than a standard diet is the LOGI regimen. It allows up to 120 grams of carbohydrates (inclusion of more vegetable and fruit and rare grains and potatoes compared to KD), is high in protein (1.7 g/kg body weight/day) and rich in fat (remaining calories) The control nutritional regime follows the standard recommendations of the German society for nutrition (DGE) and is comprised of at least 50% of the daily energy derived from carbohydrates, 0.8 grams/kg of body weight protein and 30% of daily energy expenditure from fat.

It will be an open-label trial of nutritional intervention for 20 weeks spanning three phases:

The first phase spans 3 weeks of stationary intervention in a hospital (location: Bad Kissingen, Bavaria, Germany) with the initial examination (medical, body composition, food preferences, quality of life, blood samples, physical performance) followed by implementation of the allocated diet and respective training of the patients in diet calculation, cooking and realization of the diet regimen in routine daily life.

The second phase encompasses16 weeks of an outhouse phase with continuing the selected nutritional regime under close contact and supervision of the study team accompanied by urine measurements (KD group), food diaries, questionnaires covering the quality of life and one blood sample) The third phase of the study represents one week of stationary intervention at the hospital with the final examination and further teaching in eiterh sticking to the selected diet or in changing the diet to the individually preferred one.

Ketogenic Or LOGI Diet In a Breast Cancer Rehabilitation Intervention (KOLIBRI)

To study the effect of a ketogenic diet (KD) or a low glycämic and insulinemic diet (LOGI) compared to a standard diet (SD) on quality of life in patients with Breast Cancer during the rehabilitation phase.

This will be done by comparing the results of the EORTC QLQ-30 and the QLQ-BR23 questionnaires.

For all patients in the three groups (KD, LOGI and SD ) in parallel:

Feasibility measured as average calorie and carbohydrate intake per day during weeks 1-20 as documented by food diary at one random day/week Safety as defined as number of patients with adverse events \[ Time Frame: weeks 1-20\] Ketosis as dokumented daily in urine and blood \[Time Frame: days 1-21\] and in urine daily \[Time Frame: week 4-20) Physical performance as obtained by spiroergometry \[Time frame: day 1, day 21 and week 20\] Body composition as analyzed by standard-Bioimpedance analysis(BIA), Dual- measurement \[Time frame: day 1, 21 and week 20\] Metabolic parameters (triglycerides, cholesterine, glucose, insulin, IGF-1) in patients serum via standard laboratory procedure \[Time frame: day 1, 21, week 11 and 20\]
