Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to estimate the effect of the practice of a short-term partial fasting compared to a usual alimentation on nausea and vomiting within 5 days after the start of a chemotherapy session on 2 successive chemotherapy courses (4 sessions of chemotherapy) in patients starting treatment with highly emetogenic chemotherapy (ABVD or AVD protocol).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients in fasting arm will practice partial fasting during 3 days (D-1, D1 (D day of chemotherapy) and D2) following a food guide during 4 chemotherapy sessions. Patients in usual alimentation arm will continue to take food as usual practice.

In each arm, patients will be interviewed at each chemotherapy sessions about nausea and vomiting (number and intensity of nausea and vomiting, treatments taken). Denutrition, quality of life improvement, compliance to partial fasting, treatment response will be evaluate too.
