Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Immunonutrition refers to the addition of high content of immune nutrients on the basis of sufficient calories, which not only ensures the supply of nutrition, but also takes into account the effects of anti-inflammation, regulating immunity, improving treatment tolerance, improving prognosis and so on. It has been reported that, comparing with standard enteral nutrition, the incidence of severe oral mucositis and esophagitis in patients with head and neck tumors treated with immunonutrition was lower, suffering less weight loss, and the antitumor immune response was enhanced. The 3-year OS and PFS were significantly improved in patients with good compliance.
It remains to be seen whether or not NPC patients receiving chemoradiotherapy can be benifit from immunonutritional therapy. Therefore, we conducted a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled clinical study in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma who received radiotherapy and chemotherapy without metastases, to further improve the quality of life and prognosis of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Control Group
Induction chemotherapy+Concurrent chemoradiotherapy and standard enteral nutrition
Patients receive gemcitabine (1000 mg/m² d1,8) and cisplatin (80mg/m² d1) every 3 weeks for 2-3 cycles before radiotherapy and then receive intensity modulated-radiotherapy (IMRT), concurrently with cisplatin(100mg/m² d1) every 3 weeks for 2-3 cycles.
Patients receive isocaloric standard enteral nutrition formula (ENSURE®), 250 mL per administration, 3 times per day, from 5 days before radiotherapy to the end of radiotherapy. Preparation of the 250 mL dose involves adding 200 mL of potable water to a cup and slowly stirring in 52.7 g of ENSURE powder (approximately 6 scoops).
Standard enteral nutrition
Isocaloric standard enteral nutrition formula (ENSURE®), 250 mL per administration, 3 times per day. Preparation of the 250 mL dose involves adding 200 mL of potable water to a cup and slowly stirring in 52.7 g of ENSURE powder (approximately 6 scoops).
Immunonutrition Group
Induction chemotherapy (IC) + Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) and enteral immunonutrition
Patients receive gemcitabine (1000 mg/m² d1,8) and cisplatin (80mg/m² d1) every 3 weeks for 2-3 cycles before radiotherapy and then receive intensity modulated-radiotherapy (IMRT), concurrently with cisplatin (100mg/m² d1) every 3 weeks for 2-3 cycles.
Patients receive enteral immunonutrition, Oral Impact®, Nestle, 250ml/ bottle, 2 bottles per day, from 5 days before radiotherapy to the end of radiotherapy.
Enteral immunonutrition
Enteral immunonutrition (Oral Impact®, Nestle), 250ml/ bottle, 2 bottles per day, from 5 days before radiotherapy to the end of radiotherapy.
