简要总结
This study is being done to better understand how time restricted eating (eating all food in an 8 hour window) can help a person receiving chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer, stages I-IV. The aim is to find out if time restricted is feasible and acceptable to individuals starting chemotherapy for breast cancer. We will test 3 different eating window options compared to a control group for 24 weeks.
详细描述
Little is known about how nutrition therapy can affect breast cancer treatment outcomes. Current standard care suggests enough daily calories and protein to maintain body weight and avoid muscle loss. However, this approach may be antiquated given weight gain is common during treatment and emerging pre-clinical and clinical evidence suggest that fasting during chemotherapy may improve clinical and patient-reported outcomes. For example, preliminary human trials examining the fasting mimicking diet (very low-calorie, low-protein diet 1-week per month) or short-term fasting (48-120 hours (h)), known as periodic fasting, surrounding chemotherapy may increase effectiveness of treatment and decrease side effects related to chemotherapy. Yet these diets have low adherence, side effects of their own, and may increase patient burden and decrease quality of life. In contrast, time restricted eating (TRE) is a form of intermittent fasting with high adherence that may have similar positive effects on treatment outcomes without the untoward side-effects. Moreover, TRE may have beneficial effects on glucose regulation and body composition (i.e., decreased weight and body fat gain) suggesting the potential importance of this regimen to breast cancer recurrence. TRE is extremely accessible with no calorie counting or financial burden to the patient, individuals just shorten their eating window daily.
The aim of this trial is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of 24-weeks of 8-h TRE among female breast cancer patients initiating chemotherapy. Additionally the preliminary effect of 8-h TRE on treatment outcomes, treatment related side-effects, and patient reported quality of life and fatigue will be explored. Exploratory outcomes will include glucose regulation, body weight, body composition, IGF-1, IGFBP3, SHBG, estradiol (e2), TNF-alpha, and hsCRP

研究组 & 干预措施
Standard Care control
Participants assigned to standard care will follow the recommendations by American Association for Cancer Research and the American Cancer Society.
8-h TRE
Participants assigned to this arm will follow the 8-h TRE protocol. Participants will consume food ad libitum (no calorie or food restrictions) during a self-selected 8-h eating window (beginning at 10:00 am, 11:00am, or 12:00 pm) and fasting for 16 hours daily. They will follow this same eating pattern for the length of the intervention. Calorie free drinks such as water, black coffee, and diet soda, are permitted during the fasting period. The eating window will allow for a typical breakfast/lunch/dinner eating pattern.
干预措施: Time restricted eating (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Recruitment feasibility
时间窗: 24 weeks
women eligible and referred by staff to the research team. We will also track the number of referred women approached (by phone \& in person) by our research team for screening/enrollment and the number of women who decline and their reasons for non-enrollment
TRE Acceptibility
时间窗: 24 weeks
attendance at study visits, completeness of data, and overall and treatment specific loss to follow-up/withdrawal will be closely monitored
TRE adherence
时间窗: 24 weeks
Diet adherence will be monitored either by patient reported start and stop times of food intake and diet pattern scoring and will be assessed by the study coordinator with a total score of 7 days per week followed by a post intervention qualitative survey.
