Glutamine Plus L. Reuteri Prevents TKI Therapy-diarrhea in Patients With NSCLC
Sponsor: Instituto Nacional de Cancerologia de Mexico
Summary
This open-label randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate the glutamine plus Lactobacillus reuteri supplementation effect in a standard-of-care diet in EGFR mutant patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) under tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) therapy. The main question it aims to answer is ¿What is the effect of glutamine plus L. reuteri added to an astringent diet in preventing diarrhea generated by TKI therapy? Patients will receive an astringent diet supplemented with 10 grams of glutamine and L. reuteri (100 million CFU). Researchers will compare the Glutamine plus L. reuteri diet with a standard astringent diet to see if TKI therapy diarrhea is prevented.
