Nutrition support to help tolerance of cancer chemoradiotherapy
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial studies whether adding special nutrition support (“immunonutrition”) can help people with head-and-neck cancer tolerate treatment with chemoradiotherapy, and possibly improve comfort and treatment completion. You may be eligible if you are starting or will have curative or extra (adjuvant) chemoradiotherapy and can complete study measurements.
