Study of a High-Fiber Plant-Based Diet to Improve Quality of Life in Adults with Clonal Hematopoiesis

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating whether a high-fiber plant-based diet HFPBD can improve quality of life for people with clonal hematopoiesis CH. This diet mainly includes plant foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, and whole grains. The study measures quality of life using questionnaires and surveys filled out by participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group will receive high-fiber plant-based meals delivered to their homes for 12 weeks and have regular phone or video calls with a dietitian every 2 weeks for the first 12 weeks, every 4 weeks from weeks 13 to 24, and every 8 weeks from weeks 25 to 52. The other group will receive usual care with phone calls every 4 weeks for the first 12 weeks and dietitian calls at weeks 13 and 53. During the study, participants will complete quality of life surveys using the EORTC QLQ C30 questionnaire. Assessments include phone or video visits with dietitians, dietary intake monitoring, and adherence to the assigned diet. The main outcome is improvement in quality of life within the first 12 weeks. The total study duration for participants is 52 weeks, with ongoing monitoring and support throughout this time.
