About this study

Official title: A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Anti-emetic Drug Aprepitant Upon the Combination Chemotherapy of Nedaplatin and Docetaxel for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of anti-emetic drug Aprepitant upon the combination chemotherapy of nedaplatin and docetaxel for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of anti-emetic drug Aprepitant upon the combination chemotherapy of nedaplatin and docetaxel for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The incidence and grade of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomit (CINV) will be assessed in patients receiving Aprepitant for the prevention of CINV upon the combination chemotherapy of nedaplatin and docetaxel for NSCLC. These data will be compared with those surveyed retrospectively in patients who had received the combination chemotherapy with anti-emetic agents except Aprepitant.

Being tested
Aprepitant
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AprepitantDrug

    Also called Emend

    The incidence and grade of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomit (CINV) will be assessed in patients receiving Aprepitant for the prevention of CINV upon the combination chemotherapy of nedaplatin and docetaxel for NSCLC. These data will be compared with those surveyed retrospectively in patients who had received the combination chemotherapy with anti-emetic agents but Aprepitant.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of anti-emetic drug efficacy: Incidence and grade of nausea/vomiting

    Measured: Fifteen days after beginning of each cycle of chemotherapy

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Influence on clinical outcome: Survival

    Measured: Participants will be followed for 3 years after the last treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Shiga University at 1 site in Japan.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Sep 2020. 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 Japan. 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.

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?

Evaluation of anti-emetic drug efficacy: Incidence and grade of nausea/vomiting (time frame: Fifteen days after beginning of each cycle 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 1 Sep 2020.
