Group Intervention Description Ocoxin-Viusid Ocoxin-Viusid® It will be used at a rate of 60 ml daily (1 vial every 12 hours).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Quality of Life: EORTC QLQ-C30 12 months Life quality measurement through the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire 30 (ORTC QLQ-C30): an integrated system for assessing the healthrelated quality of life (QoL) of cancer patients participating in international clinical trials. It's composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status / QoL scale, and six single items. All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level. Thus a high score for a functional scale represents a high / healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status / QoL represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale / item represents a high level of symptomatology / problems.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Compliance with the treatment with chemotherapy (CT) and Immunotherapy (IT) test 12 months Test with the next parameters: if the administration of chemotherapy (CT) and Immunotherapy (IT) treatments will be considered at planned time, number of the cycle administered out of date, days elapsed since the previous cycle and, cause that caused the administration of the CT/IT outside the planned date. In the case of the dose, the medication in which it was modified will be taken into account, as well as the modified dose.
Hematology test 12 months Levels of Hemoglobin, Platelets, Hemogram with differential in blood extractions.
Blood Chemistry test 12 months Measure levels of GPT, GOT, Creatinine, Glycemia, Bilirrubin, Alkaline Phosphatase, LDH in blood.
Nutritional Status of the patient during Chemotherapy 12 months Variations in the patient's nutritional status will be considered, measured by body mass Index (a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women)
Adverse Events-AE during Chemotherapy Test 12 months A test with the following questions:
Occurrence of an AE in the subject \[Yes, No\]; Description of the AE \[Name of the event\]; Duration of the AE \[Difference between the start and end date of the event\]; Intensity of the AE \[According to CTCAE version 4 it will classify in Light, Moderate, Severe, Life-threatening consequences, Death related to AE\]; Seriousness of the AE \[serious or not serious\], Attitude with respect to the treatment under study \[No changes, dose modification, temporary or definitive interruption of the study treatment\], Result of the AE \[recovered, improved, persisted or sequelae\], Causal relationship \[According to WHO algorithm it will classify in very probable, probable, possible, improbable, unrelated, not evaluable\]
