First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a special low-calorie diet (fasting-mimicking diet) before and after surgery can help colorectal cancer patients recover faster and reduce the chance of cancer coming back. About 600 adults with stage III colorectal cancer will be followed for years. The diet aims to protect healthy cells while making cancer cells more vulnerable, but it is not a cure and ongoing monitoring is needed.
