NCT03717298

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesized that with the administration of the nutritional supplement Ocoxin-Viusid® is expected to improve the quality of life and enhance tolerance to chemotherapy in at least 70% of patients diagnosed with advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma, treated at the "Hermanos Ameijeiras" Surgical Clinical Hospital. Phase II clinical trial, open, multicenter, nonrandomized.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Quality of Life: EORTC QLQ-C30

    Life quality measurement through the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire 30 (ORTC QLQ-C30): an integrated system for assessing the healthrelated quality of life (QoL) of cancer patients participating in international clinical trials. It's composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status / QoL scale, and six single items. All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level. Thus a high score for a functional scale represents a high / healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status / QoL represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale / item represents a high level of symptomatology / problems.

Study Arms (1)

Ocoxin-Viusid

EXPERIMENTAL

It will be used at a rate of 60 ml daily (1 vial every 12 hours).

Dietary Supplement: Ocoxin-Viusid®

Interventions

Ocoxin-Viusid®DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

An oral solution of Ocoxin-Viusid® (30 ml vials) will be used at a rate of 60 ml daily (1 vial every 12 hours), preferably administered after breakfast and lunch. It will be prescribed for a period of 2 weeks before starting the QT. The treatment with Ocoxin-Viusid® will continue in the possible periods of time of suspension of the chemotherapy treatment due to toxicities attributable to the oncospecific treatment. The treatment will be administered continuously from the inclusion of the patient in the study, up to one year.

Ocoxin-Viusid

  • Patients with decompensated intercurrent diseases, including: hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease, active infections, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, liver damage or any other special condition that at the discretion of the doctor puts their health at risk and his life during the study or his participation in the trial.
  • Patients with brain metastases.
  • Patients with mental disorders that may limit adherence to the requirements of the clinical trial and may hinder the collection of information, treatment or follow-up.
  • It is planned to include a total of 30 patients in the study, taking into account 10% of losses.
