Supporting Treatment Resilience With Optimized Nutrition and Guided Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Undergoing Chemoradiation (NCT07160296)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study to find out whether a structured lifestyle intervention-combining nutrition counseling, guided exercise, and wellness education-can help reduce treatment-related side effects and improve physical function, resilience, and quality of life in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing chemoradiation therapy (chemoRT). Benefits of research cannot be guaranteed but we hope to learn whether this intervention is feasible and acceptable during active cancer treatment, and whether it can help preserve lean body mass, improve strength and endurance, and support emotional well-being. The findings will inform the design of a future larger clinical trial.
