Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a prospective randomized crossover trial. Patients will be randomized to the FMD or regular diet during three rounds of chemotherapy. After the third round, patients will cross over to the opposite arm. The primary hypothesis is that there will be fewer cases of Grade 2-4 nausea when patients are in the FMD sequence. The primary objective is to assess differences in toxicities in patients undergoing chemotherapy with a combination of taxol/carboplatin when using a fasting mimicking diet when compared to normal diet before and after treatment.
