Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage II
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stage III
Gastric Cancer Stage II
Gastric 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
NameTimeMethod
Quality of life improvement20 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
NameTimeMethod
Emotional Quality of life20 days

emotional SDS ESAS domains

Toxicity produced by Chemotherapy20 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.
