Immunonutrition

Glutamine has the potentials of immunomodulation and adjustment of protein metabolism. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of glutamine on sarcopenia in gastric adenocarcinoma patients undergoing gastrectomy. The secondary endpoints, including the physical activity, weight loss, and nutritional profiles, will be evaluated among these patients.

ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) protocols are step-by-step care plans that help patients recover faster after surgery. They focus on keeping the body's normal functions, lowering stress from surgery, and supporting a quicker recovery. In gynecologic cancer surgeries, ERAS has been shown to help patients do better, have fewer problems, and leave the hospital sooner. A prehabilitation program, in combination with ERAS protocols, aims to optimize patients' physical and psychological condition prior to surgery for gynecological cancers. Interventions may include tailored exercise, nutritional support, respiratory training, and psychological preparation. By enhancing baseline fitness and resilience, prehabilitation improves the body's ability to tolerate surgical stress, reduces complications, and facilitates a faster, smoother recovery within the ERAS framework.

A prospective, single-arm clinical trial is conducted to investigate the role of oral immunonutrion in reducing acute toxicity after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy among pancreatic cancer patients.

Chemoradiotherapy has been a standard modality for inoperable locally advance esophageal carcinoma. The goal of this randomized control study is to compare the feasibility, and survival benefits of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs for local advanced patients with inoperable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: • If the feasibility and safety of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is better. • If the survival benefits (1, 2 and 3-years progression free survival) of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is longer. The Experimental group will receive a combination immunonutrition of omega-3 fatty acids, and glutamine, whereas the control group will receive standard formula.
