Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Aprepitant and olanzapine have been recommended for emesis prevention from highly emetogenic chemotherapy. We hypothesized that olanzapine may lead to less nausea compared to aprepitant based on previous study. However, data of combination of olanzapine and ondansetron is scarce.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 3

Detailed Description

Aprepitant and olanzapine have been recommended for emesis prevention from highly emetogenic chemotherapy. We hypothesized that olanzapine may lead to less nausea compared to aprepitant based on previous study. However, data on efficacy and adverse effects of combination of olanzapine and ondansetron which is only serotonin antagonist in Thai national essential drug list, is scarce. Also, we aims to assess the efficacy of olanzapine dosage of 5 mg which is more commonly used in Thai patients.
