Omega-3 drink before abdominal cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests an omega-3 enriched nutritional drink taken before surgery to see if it improves recovery and outcomes in patients having cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC for peritoneal carcinomatosis. The drink might help reduce inflammation and support healing.

This Phase 2 study tests whether spraying chemotherapy into the abdomen (through a small procedure) after colon cancer surgery can lower the chance the cancer comes back. It is meant for people with high-risk tumor features but who have had surgery and have no proven relapse yet.
This trial tests a treatment called HIPEC (heated chemotherapy given directly into the abdomen during surgery) for stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly. The goal is to see if this approach can help remove or shrink the cancer and improve outcomes.
This trial tests whether taking a nutritional supplement before and after surgery can help patients with colorectal cancer recover better after their operation. It may improve nutrition and healing, but we need to check if you are eligible first.
This study tests whether a special nutrition drink with omega-3 fats, given before major abdominal surgery, helps improve recovery. It may help reduce complications and shorten hospital stay.
This study tests whether a special nutrition drink with omega-3 (a healthy fat found in fish) can help people recover better after lung cancer surgery. You may qualify if you are about to have lung removal surgery.
