Oncoxin® and Quality of Life in Cancer Patients
- Conditions
- Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage IINon-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage IIIGastric Cancer Stage IIGastric Cancer Stage III
- Interventions
- Dietary Supplement: ONCOXIN®
- Registration Number
- NCT03550482
- Lead Sponsor
- Catalysis SL
- Brief Summary
It is expected that additional support with certain micronutrients may improve prognosis, decrease the frequency of side effects and complications and maintain high relative dose intensity of anticancer treatments. Food supplement ONCOXIN (ONCX) contains amino acids, vitamins, minerals and biologically active substances of natural origin with high immunostimulatory and antioxidant activity. Present study is a real world experience study intended to evaluate the efficacy of ONCX in cancer patients.
- Detailed Description
The study was conducted at 9 centers across the Russia and Kazakhstan. Patients were allocated in 2:1 comparison groups for the ONCX and control groups, respectively. A total of 133 patients were enrolled in the study; 84 in the ONCX group and 49 as controls.
ONCX contains microelements, vitamins, amino acids and certain naturally occurring, biologically active substances.
It is expected that additional support with certain micronutrients may improve prognosis, decrease the frequency of side effects and complications and maintain the Quality of life in cancer patients.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Quality of life improvement 20 days The proportion of patients who had an improvement in the QoL corresponding to the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) that any patient was able to feel at Visits 2 in total SDS ESAS (6 points within patient change for improvement)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Emotional Quality of life 20 days emotional SDS ESAS domains
Toxicity produced by Chemotherapy 20 days Body Mass Index (BMI) combined with albumin. High body mass index (BMI) has been inconsistently associated with overall survival. Preoperative body mass index, blood albumin and triglycerides predict survival for patients with gastric cancer.
Physical Quality of Life 20 days Physical SDS ESAS scores
Nutritional level 20 days Serum albumin level measures
