Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Chemotherapy-related toxicity during 12th week of observation
graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE Version 4.0); to determine whether nutritional support with high protein ONS in adult oncologic patients in the first step of cancer cachexia - asymptomatic precachexia, influence on the toxicity of systemic therapy during 3 months observation period (comparison of the results at the baseline and after 12 weeks)
at baseline and after 12th week
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Changes in the Nutritional status / metabolic status
at baseline and after 12th week
Changes in the Quality of life and patients well-being
at baseline and after 12th week
