About this study

Official title: A Phase III Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the 30 mg Intravenous Formulation of the Neurokinin-1 Receptor Antagonist GW679769 for Prevention of Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting in Female Subjects at High Risk for Emesis

This study is being conducted to see if adding GW679769 (casopitant) to ZOFRAN will significantly decrease the number of patients who experience nausea and vomiting after surgery.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of participants who achieved a complete response

    Complete response defined as no vomiting or retching and no rescue therapy during the first 24 hours following placement of the last suture/staple. Vomiting defined as the forceful expulsion of gastrointestinal contents through the mouth or nose. Retching defined as the labored, spasmodic, rhythmic contraction of the respiratory and abdominal muscles in an attempt to vomit that is not productive of gastrointestinal contents (also known as "dry heaves"). Study participants who receive antiemetic rescue medication(s) during the initial 24 hours was considered treatment failures.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. The severity of nausea experienced by participants in each cohort during the 2, 6, 24 and 48 hour periods, as assessed by an 11-point, linear, numerical rating scale referred to as a "0-10 Likert scale"

    Nausea is defined as a subjectively unpleasant sensation associated with the awareness of the urge to vomit; the desire to vomit without the presence of expulsive muscular movements. Each participant completed a Likert scale at 2, 6, 24 and 48 hours after placement of the last suture/staple. The Likert scale used a range of 0-10, where 0 = no nausea and 10 = nausea as bad as it could be.

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  2. The severity of nausea experienced by participants in each cohort during the 2, 6, 24 and 48 hour periods, as assessed by a categorical scale (none, mild, moderate or severe), as defined in the protocol

    Nausea is defined as a subjectively unpleasant sensation associated with the awareness of the urge to vomit; the desire to vomit without the presence of expulsive muscular movements. Each participant completed a categorical scale at 2, 6, 24 and 48 hours after placement of the last suture/staple. In the categorical scale, each participant asked to rate the severity of nausea as, none: no nausea, mild: queasiness/upset stomach that is manageable and minimally (if at all) affects daily activities, moderate: increased queasiness, sometimes with the feeling of having to vomit (but not vomiting), that has a significant negative effect on daily activities (for example, being unable to work, eat and drink, prepare food, care for children or others), severe: feeling sick and vomiting or feeling like you are going to vomit, and unable to perform most daily activities.

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  3. Number of participants with first emetic event

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  4. Number of participants with first antiemetic rescue medication

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  5. Participant satisfaction with the prophylactic antiemetic regimens, as assessed by participant satisfaction assessments in the participant diary

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  6. Participant willingness of participants to use the same treatment regimen for future surgical procedures, as assessed by participant satisfaction assessments in the participant diary

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  7. Number of participants with chemistry data outside the reference range

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  8. Number of participants with hematology data outside the reference range

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  9. Safety and tolerability of the antiemetic regimens, assessed by clinical observation (including time to awakening from anesthesia, defined as ability to respond to a verbal command)

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  10. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence (MO) in a participant temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product (MP), whether or not considered related to the MP and can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with its use. The SAE was any untoward MO that, at any dose, results in death, life threatening, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, results in or prolongs inpatient hospitalization, congenital abnormality or birth defect, that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the participant or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed in this definition. Refer to the general AE/SAE module for a list of AEs and SAEs.

    Measured: Up to Days 6-14 visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing casopitant in people with Nausea and Vomiting, Postoperative and Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 70 sites in 11 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 70 sites in United States, Germany, Spain, Czechia, Russia and 6 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants who achieved a complete response (time frame: Up to 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Mar 2017.
