Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The average protein intake per day corrected for baseline after 1 cycle of first line treatment with chemo-, concurrent chemoradio- or immunotherapy (3-day food diary)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary and exploratory outcomes of the study are: • Body weight • Proportion of subjects with a protein intake >=1.0 g/kg/day (3-day food diaries + 1-day food diaries • Total dietary energy intake, macronutrient intake, micronutrient intake (3-day food diaries + 1-day food diaries) • Factors impacting nutritional intake (question with each food diary) • Taste and smell changes (questionnaire) • Health-related Quality of Life (EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-CAX24, in a subgroup) • Tolerance questionnaire • Performance status (ECOG) • Anti-cancer treatment adherence and dose-limiting toxicities • Body composition from CT scan (optional, when data available from routine clinical care)
