Filter by:Many patients with cancer have insufficient vitamin D levels, and low vitamin D levels are associated with increased 'all-cause mortality' and especially mortality due to cancer. Vitamin D has anti-cancer effects, including anti-proliferation, anti-angiogenesis, and anti-inflammation. Besides, low vitamin D levels are associated with higher opioid dose usage, fatigue, and impaired quality of life in palliative cancer patients. Therefore, patients with low vitamin D levels needs instant vitamin D supplement with "stoss therapy" which is single high dose vitamin D with maintenance dose by enteral route. The stoss therapy has been applied in many fields, including neonatal, diabetes, hemodialysis, heart failure, osteoporosis. In critically ill patients, such as surgical, medical, burn intensive unit admission patients, high dose vitamin D supplement was associated lower mortality amount the vitamin D deficiency patients. This study aims for evaluating the effects of enteral high dose vitamin D supplement on advanced cancer patients with pain, serum concentration changes of vitamin D, quality of life, symptom burden, and analyze its correlation with inflammation, immune and nutritional markers.
