What is being measured

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

  1. complete response (CR)

    CR means no vomiting \& no rescue medication

    Measured: acute phase (within 24 hrs after onset of chemotherapy)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. complete response

    Delayed phase means 'from day 2 to day 5' after onset of chemotherapty whole study period means 'from day 1 to day 5' after onset of chemotherapty (acute phase + delayed phase).

    Measured: during delayed phase and whole study period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ramosetron and ondansetron in people with Cancer and Malignancy, run by Hallym University Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hyo Jung Kim, M.D. Ph.D. (82313803704, hemonc@hallym.or.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

complete response (CR) (time frame: acute phase (within 24 hrs after onset of chemotherapy)). 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 3 Oct 2012.
