Chapter B: General Concepts of Treatment Relevant to All Cancer Patients
Section B1: Screening and Assessment
B1-1 Screening
To detect nutritional disturbances at an early stage, we recommend to regularly evaluate nutritional intake, weight change and BMI, beginning with cancer diagnosis and repeated depending on the stability of the clinical situation.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Very low
Questions for research: relationship of screening to assessment, Interventions and clinical outcomes
Strong consensus
B1-2 Assessment
In patients with abnormal screening, we recommend objective and quantitative assessment of nutritional intake, nutrition impact symptoms, muscle mass, physical performance and the degree of systemic inflammation.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Very low
Questions for research: Linking outcomes from current and future intervention trials with appropriate screening and assessment tools
Consensus
Section B2: Energy and substrate requirements
B2-1 Energy requirements
We recommend, that total energy expenditure of cancer patients, if not measured individually, be assumed to be similar to healthy subjects and generally ranging between 25 and 30 kcal/kg/day.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: improve prediction of energy requirements in the individual patient
Consensus
B2-2 Protein requirement
We recommend that protein intake should be above 1 g/kg/day and, if possible up to 1.5 g/kg/day
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Moderate
Questions for research: effect on clinical outcome of increased supply (1-2 g/kg/day) and composition of protein/amino acids
Strong consensus
B2-3 Choice of energy substrates
In weight-losing cancer patients with insulin resistance we recommend to increase the ratio of energy from fat to energy from carbohydrates. This is intended to increase the energy density of the diet and to reduce the glycemic load.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: effect of a high fat diet on clinical outcome in patients with systemic inflammation/insulin resistance effect of varying the fat composition
Consensus
B2-4 Vitamins and trace elements
We recommend that vitamins and minerals be supplied in amounts approximately equal to the RDA and discourage the use of high-dose micronutrients in the absence of specific deficiencies.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Assessment of micronutrient status in cancer patients and effect of supplementation
Strong consensus
Section B3: Nutrition Interventions
B3-1 Efficacy of nutritional intervention
We recommend nutritional intervention to increase oral intake in cancer patients who are able to eat but are malnourished or at risk of malnutrition. This includes dietary advice, the treatment of symptoms and derangements impairing food intake (nutrition impact symptoms), and offering oral nutritional supplements.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Moderate
Questions for research: effect of dietary advice and ONS on clinical outcome
Consensus
B3-2 Potentially harmful diets
We recommend to not use dietary provisions that restrict energy intake in patients with or at risk of malnutrition.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Effects of fasting or fasting mimicking diets on wanted and unwanted effects of anticancer agents
Strong consensus
B3-3 Modes of nutrition: when to escalate
If a decision has been made to feed a patient, we recommend enteral nutrition if oral nutrition remains inadequate despite nutritional interventions (counselling, ONS), and parenteral nutrition if enteral nutrition is not sufficient or feasible.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Moderate
Questions for research: effect of EN or PN or combinations on clinical outcome in patients with inadequate food intake
Strong consensus
B3-4 Refeeding syndrome
If oral food intake has been decreased severely for a prolonged period of time, we recommend to increase (oral, enteral or parenteral) nutrition only slowly over several days and to take additional precautions to prevent a refeeding syndrome.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Assessment of phosphate, potassium and magnesium levels in malnourished cancer patients and response to artificial feeding
Consensus
B3-5 Home artificial nutrition
In patients with chronic insufficient dietary intake and/or uncontrollable malabsorption, we recommend home artificial nutrition (either enteral or parenteral) in suitable patients
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Effect of long-term EN and PN on clinical outcome
Strong consensus
Section B4: Exercise
B4-1 Exercise in combination with nutrition
We recommend maintenance or an increased level of physical activity in cancer patients to support muscle mass, physical function and metabolic pattern.
Strength of recommendation: STRONG
Level of evidence: High
Questions for research: effect of physical activity before, during and after anticancer treatment on clinical outcome, effect of combining an exercise program with nutritional support in curative and palliative settings
Consensus
B4-2 Type of exercise recommended
We suggest individualized resistance exercise in addition to aerobic exercise to maintain muscle strength and muscle mass.
Strength of recommendation: WEAK
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Differential and combined effects of resistance and endurance exercise on clinical outcome during anticancer therapy, in survivors and as a component of supportive and palliative care
Strong consensus
Section B5: Pharmaconutrients and Pharmacological Agents
B5-1 Corticosteroids to increase appetite
We suggest considering corticosteroids to increase the appetite of anorectic cancer patients with advanced disease for a restricted period of time (1-3 weeks) but to be aware of side effects (e.g. muscle wasting, insulin resistance, infections).
Strength of recommendation: WEAK
Level of evidence: High
Questions for research: Better define settings for a beneficial effect of corticosteroids
Consensus
B5-2 Progestins to increase appetite
Strength of recommendation: WEAK
We suggest considering progestins to increase the appetite of anorectic cancer patients with advanced disease but to be aware of potential serious side effects (e.g. thromboembolism).
Level of evidence: High
Questions for research: Prospective studies to evaluate the combined effects of appropriate nutritional support and progestins
Consensus
B5-3 Cannabinoids to improve appetite
Strength of recommendation: -
There are insufficient consistent clinical data to recommend cannabinoids to improve taste disorders or anorexia in cancer patients
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Effects of cannabinoids on nutritional state in anorectic cancer patients with taste alterations
Consensus
B5-4 Androgens to increase muscle mass
Strength of recommendation: -
There are insufficient consistent clinical data to recommend currently approved androgenic steroids to increase muscle mass
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Mechanism and long term effects of SARMs in patients with cachexia.
Consensus
B5-5 Amino acids to increase fat free mass
Strength of recommendation: -
There are insufficient consistent clinical data to recommend the supplementation with branched-chain or other amino acids or metabolites to improve fat free mass.

Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Effect of NSAID on body composition and clinical outcome in cancer patients with systemic inflammation
Strong consensus
B5-7 N-3 fatty acids to improve appetite and body weight
Strength of recommendation: WEAK
In patients with advanced cancer undergoing chemotherapy and at risk of weight loss or malnourished, we suggest to use supplementation with long-chain N-3 fatty acids or fish oil to stabilize or improve appetite, food intake, lean body mass and body weight.
Level of evidence: Low
Questions for research: Effect of long chain N-3 fatty acids on body composition and clinical outcome in cancer patients undergoing antineoplastic treatment. Effect of long chain N-3 fatty acids on quality of life and clinical outcome in patients with cancer cachexia.
Strong consensus
B5-8 Prokinetic drugs to improve early satiety
Strength of recommendation: WEAK
In patients complaining about early satiety, after diagnosing and treating constipation, we suggest to consider prokinetic agents, but to be aware of potential adverse effects of metoclopramide on the central nervous system and of domperidone on cardiac rhythm
Level of evidence: Moderate
Questions for research: Effect of prokinetics on oral nutritional intake in the context of optimal nutritional counselling
Consensus
