About this study
Official title: Efficacy of Ondansetron Oral Soluble Film Combined With Dexamethasone Versus Ondansetron Intravenously Combined With Dexamethasone in Prophylaxis of Chemotherapy-induced Nausea and Vomiting in Pediatric Patients : A Multi-center, Randomized, Parallel Controlled, Non-inferior Clinical Study.
The purpose is to evaluate the efficacy of ondansetron oral soluble film plus dexamethasone in preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) with MEC/HEC chemotherapy in children with solid tumor.
Read the detailed description
Complete randomization was used to assign subjects to the experimental group (ondansetron oral soluble film plus dexamethasone) and the control group (ondansetron intravenously plus dexamethasone) in a ratio of 1 to 1. And a specialized software was used to generate random numbers to make a random assignment table.
Experimental:
Participants received the first dose of ondansetron oral soluble film (age-based adjustment) 30 minutes before chemotherapy and equal doses were given 4 hours and 8 hours after the first dose for whom younger than 12 years old while the others should be given 8h hours after the first dose. Ondansetron oral soluble film was administered continuously for two days after chemotherapy according to the administration regimen on the day of chemotherapy. Dexamethasone (weight based) iv/po twice daily and discontinued until 72 hours after chemotherapy.
Placebo Comparator:
Participants received the first dose of ondansetron intravenously (weight-based adjustment) 30 minutes before chemotherapy and equal doses were given 4 hours and 8 hours after the first dose. Ondansetron (po) was given for next continuously two days in the same dose and frequency of administration. Dexamethasone (weight based) iv/po twice daily and discontinued until 72 hours after chemotherapy.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Ondansetron (Oral soluble film OR injections) ,Dexamethasone in people with Pediatric Solid Tumor, Unspecified, Protocol Specific, run by Yizhuo Zhang at 1 site in China.
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 6 inclusion and 15 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jan 2024. 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 China. 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Yizhuo Zhang (+86 87342460, zhangyzh@sysucc.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Complete Response Rate (CR rate) (time frame: between 0 and 24 hours after the start 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 17 Jan 2024.
