President of ASCO in May 2019 said that there are useful not only clinical trials but real-world-medicine data to obtain better care for oncologic patients. Hence we think to give some useful data (as a retrospective clinical report) about our experience (tetra-decades) of study and ‘evidence based’ use of oral-enteral / parenteral diets and of enriched/functional foods & nutri-phytaceuticals (NPs) integrated with drugs to obtain a better and complete tailored & translational care (for ill-Person) and cure (against illness); i.e. Integrative Oncology (a main topic of Oncology-Rome-2019) to ensure better general and digestive conditions and particularly in those patients subiected to surgery and/or chemo-bio-radio-therapies to prevent or reduce sequelae/complications, also. We report some of the most relevant clinically useful and effective experiences, as reinforced with related & updated best references from literature, mainly in following 4 scopes: 1-to prevent/to reduce: nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, heart-muscle wasting and fatigue; 2-tailored (personalized) integrated supportive care to improve digestive and immune-system diagnosis and cure according to specific kinds of ablative & digestive-tract reconstruction surgery; 3-prevention or recovery of Lymphopenia, anaemia, chemo-radio dermatitis-mucositis, hair loss; 4-metabolic approach (because special several kind of intense metabolism): anti-metabolitic foods/substrates against cancer-angiogenesis-flogosis.
