Summary

In this pilot study, observational data will be collected to describe the usual trajectory of changes in dietary intake, ability to be physically active, body composition, environmental exposures, and the gut microbiome over the course of R-CHOP treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).

Detailed description

Rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) is the "gold standard" first-line treatment for patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, yet it is estimated that R-CHOP is not curative for 30- 50% of patients. Preliminary studies suggests that modifiable lifestyle factors such as body composition, exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals, and changes in the gut microbiome may contribute to variation in R-CHOP treatment response. If true, it could be possible to modify these factors in an effort to improve treatment outcomes, however more detailed information is needed to confirm these preliminary findings and test whether lifestyle modification can improve outcomes. In this observational study, data will be collected on dietary intake, ability to be physically active, body composition, environmental exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals and changes in the gut microbiome over the course of R-CHOP for NHL. The study will provide more detailed information on the usual trajectory of these lifestyle factors during R-CHOP treatment than has previously been collected, especially how these factors co-vary over time. The study findings are expected to inform future intervention studies aimed at improving R-CHOP treatment outcomes.

Conditions

• Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	24-hour dietary recall	Dietary intake assessment conducted by a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. This assessment will occur prior to starting R-CHOP chemotherapy, during the clinic visits for each round of R-CHOP chemotherapy, and again at the end of the scheduled course of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
OTHER	Hand grip strength	Measurement of grip strength using a hand dynamometer. This will test occur prior to starting R-CHOP chemotherapy, during the clinic visits for each round of R-CHOP chemotherapy, and again at the end of the scheduled course of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
OTHER	International Physical Activity Questionnaire	Survey about physical activity over the previous 7 days. This survey will be administered prior to starting R-CHOP chemotherapy, during the clinic visits for each round of R-CHOP chemotherapy, and again at the end of the scheduled course of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
OTHER	Patient-reported outcomes survey	Survey about symptoms and side effects experienced during cancer treatment. This will be administered prior to starting R-CHOP chemotherapy, during the clinic visits for each round of R-CHOP chemotherapy, and again at the end of the scheduled course of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
OTHER	Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index	Survey about sleep habits and quality over the past month. This will be administered prior to starting R-CHOP chemotherapy, during the clinic visits for each round of R-CHOP chemotherapy, and again at the end of the scheduled course of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
OTHER	Functional Assessment of Cancer Treatment - Lymphoma	Survey about quality of life for people with a diagnosis of lymphoma. This will be administered prior to starting R-CHOP chemotherapy, during the clinic visits for each round of R-CHOP chemotherapy, and again at the end of the scheduled course of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
OTHER	urine sample (optional)	Collect three urine samples either in the clinic or at home. This specimen collection will occur prior to starting R-CHOP chemotherapy, after the third round of R-CHOP chemotherapy, and again at the end of the scheduled course of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
OTHER	fecal sample (optional)	Collect a fecal sample either in the clinic or at home. This sample collection will occur prior to starting R-CHOP chemotherapy, after the third round of R-CHOP chemotherapy, and again at the end of the scheduled course of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
