Brief summary

Nutritional therapy implementation in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) have undergone changes recently due to new conditioning regimen and graft versus disease prophylaxis, novel enteral and parenteral nutrition solutions: the value of enteral nutrition is increasing, the indications for parenteral nutrition are becoming more strict. The study aims to identify the role of parenteral nutrition in the context of rapidly changing supportive care approaches in HSCT

Detailed description

The study is interventional: in children and adolescents (2-17 years), adults with blood malignancy and inherited diseases who underwent autologous or allogeneic HSCT, nutritional status, parenteral nutrition tolerability and effectiveness will be assessed before and one month after HSCT. All patients who require parenteral nutrition will pass randomization via envelope technique - solutions containing glucose/amino acids or glucose/amino acids/lipid emulsions. The results will be compared with a control group which will not receive additional nutritional support. The methods used for measurement of nutritional status are: weight, body mass index, bioimpedance and hand grip strength (for adults only), blood tests, diet amount record.

Interventions

DRUGGlucose/Amino acids

If indications for parenteral nutrition appear, it's dose will be calculated according patient's age and weight and will consist of glucose and amino acids solutions. To prevent potential complications of parenteral nutrition, the target dose will be reached by the third day of therapy. It will discontinued, when the patient oral food intake will be more than 60% for three consecutive days.

DRUGGlucose/Amino acids/Lipids

If indications for parenteral nutrition appear, it's dose will be calculated according patient's age and weight and will consist of glucose, amino acids and lipid emulsions. To prevent potential complications of parenteral nutrition, the target dose will be reached by the third day of therapy. It will discontinued, when the patient oral food intake will be more than 60% for three consecutive days.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of patients with low tolerability of different parenteral nutrition schemes in HSCT According CTCAE ver. 5.060 daysGastrointestinal toxicity symptoms (anorexia, vomiting, nausea, mucositis, diarrhea) before, during and after discontinuation of parenteral nutrition

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Changes in body mass index in HSCT depending on nutritional support approach30 daysChanges in body mass index (kg/m\^2) from baseline to day +30
Changes in body composition in HSCT depending on nutritional support approach30 daysChanges in body composition via bioimpedance by Tanita bc-418 ma, Japan (total body water (kg), muscle mass (kg), fat (kg)) from baseline to day +30
Changes in body weight in HSCT depending on nutritional support approach30 daysChanges in body weight (kg) from baseline to day +30
Severity and duration of anorexia, nausea, vomiting prevention60 daysAccording CTCAE ver. 5.0, amount and duration of patient's oral food intake
Impact of parenteral nutrition on infection episodes after HSCT60 daysTo compare the incidence of sepsis between patients with and without parenteral nutrition. The sepsis criterions are: laboratory tests - positive blood culture, enchanced serum level of C-reactive protein (mg/L) and procalcitonin (mcg/L); clinical signs - fever.
Changes in resting energy expenditure in HSCT depending on nutritional support approach30 daysChanges in resting energy expenditure (kcal) measured via bioimpedance from baseline to day +30 (device - Tanita bc-418 ma, Japan)
