Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis in Estimating Body Composition in Patients With Stage I-IV Head and Neck Cancer Undergoing Radiation Therapy

Head and Neck Carcinoma Clinical Trial

Official title:
Validation of Eight-Electrode Multifrequency Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis to Estimate Body Composition in a Head and Neck Cancer Population Undergoing Radiation Therapy

Clinical Trial Summary

Bioelectrical impedance analysis measures body mass (the amount of muscle and fat in the body) and the level of hydration to help researchers identify patients who are losing muscle mass during radiation therapy. This information may help researchers make decisions about nutritional supplementation and the placement of feeding tubes in patients receiving radiation therapy.

Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To validate body composition estimates derived from the seca (SECA) medical body composition analyzer (mBCA) bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) scale by comparing with computed tomography (CT) measured lean and fat body mass. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate sensitivity of mBCA to detect changes in body composition during treatment. II. Identify whether BIA-estimated loss of lean body mass (LBM) during treatment predicts development of sarcopenia. III. Determine whether BIA-derived estimates of body water correlate with requirements for intravenous (IV) hydration and unplanned hospital admissions. IV. Explore associations between body composition and symptom burden during treatment. OUTLINE: Patients undergo bioelectrical impedance analysis with seca mBCA and CT or positron emission tomography (PET) at baseline, weekly for 6-7 weeks during standard of care radiation therapy (RT), and at 10-12 weeks after completion of RT. After completion of study, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years. ;
