RESUMO

PURPOSE: Malnutrition is a common problem among pancreatic cancer (PC) patients that negatively impacts on their quality of life (QoL) and clinical outcomes. The main objective of this consensus is to address the role of Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) into the comprehensive therapeutic management of PC patients. METHODS: A Spanish multidisciplinary group of specialists from the areas of Medical Oncology; Radiation Oncology; Endocrinology and Nutrition; and General Surgery agreed to assess the role of MNT as part of the best therapeutic management of PC patients. RESULTS: The panel established different recommendations focused on nutritional screening and nutritional screening tools, MNT strategies according to PC status, and MNT in palliative treatment. CONCLUSIONS: There is an unmet need to integrate nutritional therapy as a crucial part of the multimodal care process in PC patients. Health authorities, health care professionals, cancer patients, and their families should be aware of the relevance of nutritional status and MNT on clinical outcomes and QoL of PC patients.

RESUMO

La xerostomía es la complicación más frecuente en los pacientes que reciben radioterapia para el cáncer oral. La reducción en la tasa de flujo salival y una disminución de su pH están directamente relacionado con un cambio en la composición de la saliva y el desplazamiento de la microflora oral hacia especies bacterianas cariogénicas. Por otro lado sabemos que la xerostomía se asocia a dificultad para el habla, la masticación, la deglución, cambios en el sabor, caries dentales, sensación de ardor, infecciones microbianas y un deterioro de la calidad de vida. El manejo de la xerostomía incluye la prevención, la estimulación y el tratamiento sintomático. La prevención no siempre es posible a pesar de que con radioterapia de intensidad modulada (IMRT), se puede administrar dosis más bajas de radiación a las glándulas parótidas. Los fármacos estimuladores, como los agonistas colinérgicos, han demostrado mejorar la xerostomía, sin embargo tienen efectos secundarios y están contraindicados en algunas patologías. Hoy disponemos de una gran variedad de productos tópicos para el alivio de los síntomas de la boca seca, como la goma de mascar, pastillas sin azúcar, sustitutos salivales, cremas hidratantes o pastas dentales. Un trabajo previo nos indica que el uso diario de productos de boca seca tópicos que contienen aceite de oliva, betaína y xilitol es seguro y eficaz en el alivio de los síntomas de xerostomía en pacientes con xerostomía inducida por fármacos. En este trabajo se revisa la eficacia de las diversas opciones de tratamiento para la hiposalivación inducida por la radiación y presentamos nuestros resultados con el uso de productos tópicos específicos en estos pacientes (AU)


Xerostomia is the most frequent complication among patients who receive radiotherapy for oral cancers. A reduction in salivary flow rate and decrease of its pH is paralleled with a change in saliva competence and shifting of oral microflora to cariogenic bacterial spices. Therefore difficulties in speech, mastication, swallowing, changes in taste, dental caries, burning sensation, microbial infections and a compromised quality of life are associated with the presence of xerostomia. Studies have led to three therapeutic approach for xerostomia treatment: prevention, stimulation and symptomatic treatment. Prevention it is not always possible, although intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) technique, gives the ability to delivering lower doses of radiation to parotid glands. Stimulation agents as cholinergic agonist have all demonstrated some ability to improve xerostomia, however have side effects and are contraindicated for certain medical disorders. There are a huge variety of products for relief dry mouth symptoms as Chewing gum, sugarfree lozenges, salivary substitutes and moisturizers, toothpastes. A previous study report that the daily use of topical dry mouth products containing olive oil, betaine and xilitol is safe and effective in relieving symptoms of xerostomia in a population with polypharmacy-induced xerostomia. The objective of this study is to review efficacy of various treatment options for radiation-induced hyposalivation and present our results with the use of specific topical products in this patients (AU)
