Summary:
Sarcopenia is common in lung cancer patients. It is one of the significant factors
affecting the overall survival, radiotherapy and chemotherapy efficacy, and quality of
life of patients with lung cancer. Previous studies have shown that increased protein
intake can stimulate postprandial muscle synthesis, and improve muscle mass, strength,
function, and overall survival. However, most previous studies have focused on the
intervention of whey protein, while the protective effect of soybean protein on lung
cancer-related sarcopenia (LCRS) has not yet been fully explored and reached an
agreement.
So, this study aims to explore the effects of soy and whey protein on muscle, gut
microbiota, and clinical outcomes among patients with lung cancer-related sarcopenia, to
provide a reference for further nutrition treatment.
Detailed description:
This study will last 6 months. For the duration of the study, an anticipated total of 90
participants will be randomly assigned to receive either a 30-gram protein supplement or
a placebo daily. There will be a total of 5 study visits, and dietary records,
questionnaires, blood and stool collection, and functional testing will occur at all
study visits. Intention-to-treat analysis (ITT) and per-protocol analysis (PP) will be
conducted in statistical analysis.
