What is being measured

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

  1. complete response rate for the acute phase (0-24 hours) after chemotherapy

    Measured: during 24 hours after first cycle of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy (MEC)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. complete response rate for the delayed phase (24-120 hours) and overall phase (0-120 hours) after chemotherapy

    Measured: during 0-120 hours after first cycle of MEC

  2. no vomiting for the overall phase

    Measured: during 0-120 hours after first cycle of MEC

  3. significant emesis for the overall phase

    Measured: during 0-120 hours after first cycle of MEC

  4. numbers and time for rescue medicaions

    Measured: during 0-120 hours after first cycle of MEC

  5. effects on quality of life by FLIE questionnaire

    Measured: during 0-120 hours after first cycle of MEC

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Olanzapine in people with Cancer, run by Korean South West Oncology Group.

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 7 inclusion and 11 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 27 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Jooyoung Lee (82-42-280-7399, poppoya99@naver.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

complete response rate for the acute phase (0-24 hours) after chemotherapy (time frame: during 24 hours after first cycle of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy (MEC)). 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 27 Mar 2015.
