Arginine-restricted diet

"Targeted Arginine Metabolism: The intervention zeroes in on arginine metabolism. As solid tumors often have arginine synthesis flaws and rely on external arginine, dietary restriction of arginine is a novel approach.~Dietary Intervention: The -Arg liquid diet in this study is precisely defined. Dosage is determined by patient weight, following 30 kcal/kg/day for energy and 1.5 g/kg/day for protein. A low - arginine food list is provided.~Study Design and Endpoints: It's a Phase I single - arm study. Its main goal is to evaluate the safety and tolerance of the combined treatment. Secondary and exploratory endpoints cover efficacy, nutritional state, and immune status."
