This trial is testing whether a personalized nutrition and exercise program can help people with pancreatic cancer maintain their muscle strength and body composition during chemotherapy. You would receive high-protein nutrition support, fish oil supplements, pancreatic enzyme replacement, and a personalized daily step goal. Some participants will also receive extra visits with a nutritionist and physiotherapist to provide additional guidance and support.
Chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer often causes people to lose muscle mass and strength, which can affect their quality of life and ability to recover. This trial wants to see if structured nutrition care and exercise guidance can prevent this muscle loss during treatment.

You would participate for 12 weeks while you receive your chemotherapy. Both groups receive a high-protein diet plan, fish oil supplements, pancreatic enzymes, and a personalized daily step goal. If you are in the extra-support group, you would have 7 visits with a nutritionist (instead of 4) and 6 visits with a physiotherapist to help guide your exercise and answer questions about nutrition. The study team will measure your muscle strength and muscle mass at the beginning and end of the trial using hand grip strength tests and CT scans.
