Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
weight loss1 month after chemoradiotherapyDifferences in the proportion of patients who lost \>10% of their body weight at 1 month after chemoradiotherapy between experimental and control groups

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
weight loss >10%at the end of chemoradiotherapyDifferences in the proportion of patients who lost \>10% of their body weight at the end of chemoradiotherapy between experimental and control groups
weight loss >20%at the end of chemoradiotherapyDifferences in the proportion of patients who lost \>20% of their body weight at the end of chemoradiotherapy between experimental and control groups
ncidence rate of adverse events (AEs)at the end of chemoradiotherapyAnalysis of acute and late adverse events (AEs) are evaluated. Numbers of patients of treatment-related adverse events(acute toxicity) as assessed by CTCAE v5.0.Numbers of patients of late radiation toxicities were assessed using the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer late radiation morbidity scoring scheme.
change of PG-SGA1 month after chemoradiotherapyScored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA).It consists of two parts: the patient's self-assessment part and the medical staff's assessment part. The specific contents include seven aspects, including body weight, food intake, symptoms, activity and physical function, the relationship between disease and nutritional needs, metabolic needs, and physical examination. The first 4 Each aspect is evaluated by the patient himself, and the last three aspects are evaluated by the medical staff. The overall evaluation includes qualitative evaluation and quantitative evaluation.
change of NRS20021 month after chemoradiotherapyThe outstanding advantage of NRS2002 is that it can predict the risk of malnutrition, and can proactively and dynamically judge the changes in the nutritional status of patients, which is convenient for timely feedback of the nutritional status of patients, and provides evidence for adjusting nutritional support programs. It is a better nutritional risk screening tool.
