NOURISH Study: Food Support for Transplant and Cell Therapy Patients
This study, called NOURISH (Nutrition OUtReach In Systems of Healthcare), is for children and adults aged 8 to 80 who are planning to receive a stem cell transplant (allogeneic or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation) or CAR-T cell therapy. It focuses on helping people who are experiencing food insecurity, meaning they worry about running out of food or not having enough money for groceries. Participants will receive bags of shelf-stable food twice a week in the clinic, along with recipes and educational materials. The study aims to see if providing this food support can improve nutrition, lower costs, and lead to better outcomes for patients undergoing these important medical treatments. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 210 participants.
