Official Title: Efficacy of Immunonutrients in Reducing Oral Mucositis in Patients With Locoregionally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Study ID: NCT05892354

Study Description

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of immunonutrion compared with standard nutrition in reducing oral mucositis in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Detailed Description: Oral mucositis is the most common adverse reaction in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma receiving chemoradiotherapy, of which 40-50% of patients are severe (grade 3-4). Oral mucositis usually results in pain, dysphagia, reduced feeding, and malnutrition. Severe malnutrition in turn increases the risk of severe oral mucositis. Persistent severe oral mucositis will lead to delay and interruption of treatment, impairing patients'quality of life and prognosis. It's reported that nutritional intervention can not only reduce the risk and severity of oral mucositis and improve the nutritional status of patients with head and neck tumors, but also improve patients' tolerance to radiotherapy, quality of life, and prognosis. Immunonutrition refers to the addition of high content of immune nutrients on the basis of sufficient calories, which not only ensures the supply of nutrition, but also takes into account the effects of anti-inflammation, regulating immunity, improving treatment tolerance, improving prognosis and so on. It has been reported that, comparing with standard enteral nutrition, the incidence of severe oral mucositis and esophagitis in patients with head and neck tumors treated with immunonutrition was lower, suffering less weight loss, and the antitumor immune response was enhanced. The 3-year OS and PFS were significantly improved in patients with good compliance. It remains to be seen whether or not NPC patients receiving chemoradiotherapy can be benifit from immunonutritional therapy. Therefore, we conducted a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled clinical study in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma who received radiotherapy and chemotherapy without metastases, to further improve the quality of life and prognosis of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
