Dysregulation of Whole-body Metabolism in Ovarian Cancer: A Longitudinal Study
Sponsor: University of Tennessee Graduate School of Medicine
Summary
Minimal information is available regarding changes in whole-body metabolism in ovarian cancer patients, and no study has assessed whole-body lipid metabolism in this patient population. In this pilot study we will assess fasting and postprandial lipid metabolism of ovarian cancer patients before, during, and after treatment via indirect calorimetry.
