Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Incidence of Treatment Related Adverse Events Per Study Arm

Time Frame: Up to 48 months

Overall toxicity from therapy as assessed by NCI Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v. 5.0 that directly correlates with toxicity from concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Based on another randomized trial using pretreatment immunonutrition, investigators want to see if this nutritional intervention will likely decrease overall chemoradiotherapy related toxicity. All toxicity and adverse events (CTCAE v.5.0) will be assessed weekly and attributed by the treating radiation oncologist and entered into the clinical trials management database OnCore for later statistical analysis. Differences in toxicity events at the end of the study in participants receiving Impact® and those receiving Boost® will be compared using two-sample t-test.

Change in Plasma Levels of IL-6 Per Study Arm

Time Frame: Up to 48 months

Measurement of the marked change of IL-6 that directly correlates with toxicity from concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Multiplex immunoassay will be used to determine the plasma levels of IL-6 in pg/ml as a continuous variable. Two-sample t-test for change in IL-6 at the last visit from the baseline will be compared between the two arms. Kolmogorove-Smirnov and Jarque-Bera tests will be performed to test for normality assumption on the primary endpoints prior to t-test analysis. If either test indicates a violation of the normality assumption, investigators will use an appropriate rank-based Wilcoxon rank-sum test instead of t-test.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Progression-free Survival (PFS)(Up to 2 years)
  • Rate of Treatment Changes or Interruptions Per Study Arm(Up to 2 years)
  • Overall Survival (OS) 9OS)(Up to 2 years)
  • Rate of Participant Regimen Compliance Per Study Arm(Up to 2 years)
