AbstractObjective To investigate the influence of enteral nutrition on body weight,nutritional status,treatment toxicities,and short-term outcomes in esophageal carcinoma patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Methods Eligible esophageal carcinoma patients were randomly assigned (2:1) to receive either CCRT combined with enteral nutrition (study group) or CCRT alone (control group).The primary endpoint was changes in the body weight during and after radiotherapy. The secondary endpoints were nutrition-related hematological parameters,the toxicities of chemoradiotherapy,the completion rate of treatment,and short-term outcomes. The differences was using χ2 or t-test. Results Between September 2014 and June 2017,203 patients were included in the study,consisting of 139 patients in the study group and 64 patients in the control group. Compared with the control group,the study group had significantly less body weight loss during and after radiotherapy (P<0.05) and significantly less decreases in serum albumin and hemoglobin (P<0.05),but there was no significant difference in the reduction in total lymphocyte count between the two groups (P>0.05).The study group had significantly lower incidence rates of grade ≥3 myelosuppression and infection and a significantly higher completion rate of chemoradiotherapy compared with the control group (P<0.05).The incidence of radiation pneumonitis and esophagitis showed no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05).The study group had an insignificantly higher Objective response rate than the control group (P>0.05). Conclusions For esophageal carcinoma patients treated with CCRT,enteral nutrition can reduce body weight loss during and after radiotherapy,improve nutritional status and treatment tolerance,and reduce toxicities.
