Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois
232 participants

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial research study is to evaluate the impact of preoperative oral immunonutrition (IN) on post-operative complications in patients undergoing a cystectomy. As a secondary focus, this study will aim to develop a signature that would identify patients that would benefit the most from IN. This is a multicentric (Swiss: N=3), prospective, controlled, pragmatic, parallel-group comparative study with block randomization stratified by centers.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria3
- Patient undergoing open cystectomy (for all reasons)

- Severe diarrhoea requiring medical attention
- Current treatment with any immunosuppressive drug
- In standard practice, pregnant or lactating women are systematically rejected by the surgeon for this surgical procedure. Furthermore, during the pre-surgical anaesthesia consultation, the eligibility of each patient for anaesthesia will be assessed according to the usual criteria and recommendations of the anaesthesia service of the CHUV
- Other clinically significant concomitant disease affecting immunity (e.g., severe renal failure, HIV, SLE, transplant recipient, ...)
- Inability to follow the procedures of the study, e.g. due psychological disorders, dementia, etc.
- Participation in another study with investigational drug within the 30 days preceding and during the present study
- Previous enrolment into the current study
- Use of IN independently of the study
- Enrolment of the investigator, his/her family members, employees and other dependent persons
- Emergency procedure (less than 7 days between screening and surgery)
