Can a High-Fat diet help fight deadly brain cancer?

NCT ID NCT05708352

Summary

This study is testing whether following a strict ketogenic diet (high-fat, very low-carb) alongside standard cancer treatment helps people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma live longer. Researchers will compare the keto diet to standard dietary advice in 170 patients over 18 weeks. The main goal is to see if the diet improves survival, while also tracking quality of life, fatigue, and thinking skills.
