Since the seminal findings of McCay and colleagues, there has been a growing interest in applying CR as an adjunct in a variety of conditions, including longevity, cardiovascular disease, chronic inflammatory conditions and more recently, cancer [2,3]. As global rates of obesity have continued to soar, there is increasing evidence suggesting a link between dysregulated metabolic pathways and carcinogenesis. In a recent landmark study, a direct linear effect of weight on cancer development was observed in several common malignancies [4]. Furthermore, there is compelling evidence that not only is obesity implicated in cancer development, but it may also be a key driver of cancer progression and recurrence.Due to the number of overlapping pathways involved in metabolism and cancer, utilization of CR may have a number of benefits in the cancer patient. At the molecular level, CR is thought to exert its effects by targeting growth factor regulated proliferation pathways, including insulin-dependent pathways that are dysfunctional in both obesity and cancer development [5]. In this paper, we will discuss the clinical applications of CR and the settings it may be most beneficial to the cancer patient, including its utilization in prevention, as a complement to existing therapies, and in survivorship.PreventionSince Moreschi initially demonstrated the antitumorigenic properties of CR in rodents over a century ago, the link between diet and carcinogenesis has been explored [6]. Reduced caloric intake in experimental animal models has been repeatedly shown to be one of the most effective ways of decreasing spontaneous mammary tumors. A 14-study meta-analysis of the effect of CR on the spontaneous formation of mammary tumors in mice revealed that CR decreased tumor incidence by more than half [7]. Similarly, a growing body of evidence seems to demonstrate this effect in humans. A retrospective cohort study of over 7000 women with history of anorexia nervosa and low BMI demonstrated a comparable 50% reduction in the incidence of breast cancer, suggesting severe CR in humans may confer protection from invasive breast cancer [8]. Correspondingly, excess caloric intake has been directly associated with an increase in the incidence of cancer in a number of studies. In one of the largest population-based studies covering almost 1/10th of the UK population, a linear link between BMI and cancer incidence was found. In this study, a 5 kg/m2 increase in BMI was linearly correlated with increasing incidence of cancers of the uterus, gallbladder, kidney, cervix, thyroid and bone marrow.The molecular underpinnings regarding the role of CR in cancer prevention remain under investigation. It is thought that CR may confer an advantageous molecular phenotype that inhibits carcinogenesis. Through alteration of driver hormone and growth factors, CR leads to an increase in apoptosis and a decrease in cellular proliferation and angiogenesis [9]. In particular, IGF-1 pathways have been found to be significantly downregulated in calorically restricted mice. Downstream targets of the IGF-1 receptor such as PI3K and Ras G-protein are thought to be reduced in response to CR, leading to an increase in cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis [10]. Additionally, CR is associated with a significant anti-inflammatory response and may inhibit neoplastic progression and malignant conversion by blunting chronic inflammatory states [11]. In human studies, the combination of exercise and implementation of CR led to a reduction in various inflammatory biomarkers, including high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, IL-6 and serum amyloid A [12].TreatmentMore recently, CR is being increasingly utilized as a novel complement to standard cancer therapies and as an aid to help reduce treatment-related morbidity. A growing body of evidence has begun to demonstrate the benefits of using concurrent diet modification to enhance cancer treatment. Previous data from our laboratory have demonstrated that in a murine model, CR combined with radiation therapy (RT) aids in tumor regression and delays metastases [13]. Similar to use of metformin, CR is thought to increase the therapeutic ratio by targeting key molecular pathways altered in cancer progression such as IGF1-R, mTOR and AMP-K, therefore rendering cells more susceptible to cytotoxic treatment [14]. CR is an attractive complement to standard therapies due to its nonoverlapping side-effect profile with traditional cytotoxics. In addition, CR may even be useful in mitigating treatment-related chemotherapy toxicity by inducing a differential stress resistance response in normal tissues but preserving cytotoxicity in cancer cells [15].Currently, there are a number of clinical trials investigating the use of CR in conjunction with standard treatments. One particular trial, the CAREFOR study, is currently underway at Thomas Jefferson University investigating the use of CR in patients with stage 0–I breast cancer during surgery and radiation therapy (identifier: NCT01819233) [16]. This pilot trial aims to measure diet adherence over the course of radiation treatment, subsequent weight change, tumor recurrence and metastasis and progression-free survival. Other trials are currently exploring the application of CR in several other disease sites, including head and neck, brain, colorectal and prostate cancers [16].SurvivorshipCR has a number of applications in the survivorship setting. Perhaps its greatest applicability is its role in normalizing BMI and ameliorating metabolic syndromes following treatment. It is well documented that post-treatment weight gain is a negative prognostic factor in a number of cancers. The greatest amount of research in this area has come from the breast cancer literature, where a post-treatment increase in BMI of as little 0.5 kg/m2 has been associated with an increase of breast cancer-related mortality [17]. Similarly, in other hormone-sensitive cancers such as prostate cancer, there is growing evidence that there may be a direct link between increasing BMI and biochemical disease recurrence [18].Mechanisms underlying the role of weight gain in cancer recurrence are likely multifactorial. CR may target multiple pathways related to both metabolic disturbances and cancer recurrence. In breast cancer, CR can potentially decrease circulating hormones that could be drivers of cancer recurrence, such as circulating reproductive steroid hormones [19]. In prostate cancer, it is hypothesized that hyperinsulinemia may be a candidate mediator driving increased biochemical failure [18]. In addition, a number of studies have implicated chronic inflammation as a risk factor for not only cancer development, but also disease recurrence. In women with breast cancer, elevated levels of biomarkers of inflammation following treatment are associated with reduced survival [20]. Similar to the prevention setting, CR may play a role in preventing recurrences by altering the pro-inflammatory milieu, particularly in those involving adipokine pathways [21].Additionally, CR may also be indirectly beneficial by alleviating post-treatment morbidity and minimizing late effects of treatments. One of the most common complications from breast cancer treatment is lymphedema. Development of lymphedema is strongly associated with weight and BMI. Normalizing body mass through CR may not only decrease incidence of lymphedema in breast cancer patients, but also in other cancers where lymph node dissections routinely are performed, such as head and neck and gynecologic cancers.ConclusionCR is an attractive complement to standard approaches in cancer prevention, treatment and survivorship. On the basis of its effects on metabolism alone, CR may be a useful tool in the armamentarium against cancer. Although preclinical research regarding its usefulness in cancer treatment has been known for decades, only in recent years has data emerged in the clinical setting of cancer patients. Currently, there are over 500 studies looking at the impact of diet and cancer registered on ClinicalTrials.gov. As data in this field continue to develop, a greater understanding of the mechanisms of CR will become available and its role in cancer treatment better defined. At the current time, there appears to be ample evidence that the potential benefits of supplementing CR with standard therapies may be well worth its low toxicity profile and may reap benefits across multiple health domains in the cancer patient.Financial & competing interests disclosureThe authors have no relevant affiliations or financial involvement with any organization or entity with a financial interest in or financial conflict with the subject matter or materials discussed in the manuscript.
