This is a single center, randomized, open label study to assess the feasibility of a low-protein diet intervention in cancer patients who are receiving immunotherapies. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either immunotherapy plus control diet arm (~20% protein content) or immunotherapy plus intervention low-protein diet arm (10% protein content).
The main idea of this study is that a low protein diet may alter the environment surrounding the tumor, enhancing the body's immune response leading to greater anticancer effects of treatment. This study intends to use a low-protein diet as a tool to enhance the immune response generated by immune check point inhibitor treatments.
