Gastric Cancer, Pancreatic Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
For gastric and pancreatic cancer patients scheduled for primary chemotherapy, we would like to report muscle mass preservation and improvement in quality of life in Chinese characters that received only exercise therapy and high protein supplements at the same time
Detailed description
Sixty patients with gastric and pancreatic cancer will be eligible, and 30 patients will be randomly assigned to the exercise therapy + high protein supplement group and 30 patients to the exercise therapy + placebo supplement group.
Interventions

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Comparison of muscle mass between exercise therapy alone and high protein supplement combination groups | 6weeks | Comparison of muscle mass between the exercise therapy single group and the high-protein supplement combination group as assessed by Bioelectrical impedance analsis (BIA) (performed in Week 6) |
| Comparison of muscle variation between exercise therapy alone and high protein supplement combination groups | 6weeks | Comparison of muscle variation between the exercise therapy single group and the high-protein supplement combination group as assessed by Bioelectrical impedance analsis (BIA) (performed in Week 6) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Quality of Life (QoL) Evaluation (Korean version EORTC QLQ-C30) | 3years | European Organization for Research and Treatment Core Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) Korean version EORTC QLQ-C30 consists of 30 questions, and total score will be reported. Response options for each EPIC question form a Likert scale, and multi-item scale scores will be summed and transformed linearly to a 0-to-100 scale. The higher the score, the higher the quality of life. Using the QOL questionnaire (EOGRTC QLQ-C30), a total of 3 measurements were taken before chemotherapy and 1 week after chemotherapy. |
| Nutritional status assessment | 3years | Nutritional status assessment for the exercise therapy single group versus the high-protein supplement combination group as assessed by PG-SGA(the Scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment) |
| Exercise Compliance | 3years | As assessed by compliance for planned exercise (aerobic/strength exercise) adherence rate (%) |
| Overall Survival (OS) | 3years | Overall Survival (OS): The time from the date of first dose and the date of death from any cause. |
| Progression-free survival (PFS) | 3years | Progression-free survival (PFS): To evaluate the treatment effect of High Protein/Placebo Supplement on progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 3years |
| High Protein/Placebo Supplement rate | 3years | As assessed by compliance for planned high protein/placebo supplementation rate (%) |
