New study aims to boost use of Life-Saving nutrition in cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07571564
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether training for doctors and educational workshops for patients can increase the use of enteral nutrition (feeding through a tube) in cancer patients who are malnourished. About 80 adults with cancer who need this type of nutrition will take part. The goal is to see if these measures help more patients follow medical guidelines and get the nutrition they need.
