Prevention and Treatment of CINV Caused by TC Regimen in Gynecological Malignant Tumor Patients
brief summary
To determine the best method to prevent CINV caused by TC regimen in patients with gynecological malignant tumor. Paclitaxel-carboplatin (TC) is the most widely used regimen for gynecologic malignancies, yet chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remain common and distressing. Optimal prophylaxis is uncertain. This trial evaluated whether adding the NK1 receptor antagonist aprepitant to standard two-drug prophylaxis (5-HT3 receptor antagonist plus dexamethasone) improves CINV control.
detailed description
The risk of vomiting caused by high-dose carboplatin is controversial, and there is currently no prevention of TC in patients with gynecological malignant tumors High-level evidence-based medical evidence for programme-induced CINV. Therefore, different guidelines recommend the best antiemetic regimen as well It's different. This study is intended to conduct a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study The designed Phase III clinical study provides important data and basis for clinical practice and guideline formulation.
In this prospective, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover phase III trial, patients with gynecologic malignancies scheduled for at least two cycles of TC were randomly assigned to receive aprepitant or placebo with ondansetron and dexamethasone during cycle 1, crossing over to the alternate regimen in cycle 2. The primary endpoint was complete response (CR: no emesis, no significant nausea and no rescue therapy) in the delayed phase (24-168 hours). Secondary endpoints included CR in acute and overall phases, nausea severity, rescue medication use, adverse events, and patient satisfaction.
