Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the minimum effective bolus dose of phenylephrine to prevent post-spinal hypotension in Cesarean section in 95 % of our patients. An adequate response will be defined as the absence of hypotension or nausea/vomiting during the period from induction of spinal anesthesia to uterine incision prior to fetal delivery.
This is a Phase III trial designed to demonstrate that casopitant (GW679769) plus dexamethasone and ondansetron is more effective in the prevention of vomiting than dexamethasone and ondansetron alone following the administration of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.
RATIONALE: Antiemetic drugs, such as dexamethasone, ondansetron hydrochloride, and palonosetron hydrochloride, may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies how well giving dexamethasone together with ondansetron hydrochloride or palonosetron hydrochloride works in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients receiving doxorubicin hydrochloride and cyclophosphamide for early stage breast cancer
RATIONALE: Antiemetic drugs, such as APF530, palonosetron, and dexamethasone, may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients receiving chemotherapy for cancer. It is not yet known whether APF530 is more effective than palonosetron when given together with dexamethasone in preventing nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying APF530 and dexamethasone to see how well they work compared with palonosetron and dexamethasone in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients receiving chemotherapy for cancer.
The study will test aprepitant for the prevention of CINV in patients receiving their initial cycle of Moderately Emetogenic Chemotherapy (MEC). Patients receiving more then one cycle of chemotherapy may opt to participate in an optional second cycle during which the patient will receive the same antiemetic regimen as cycle 1, except that an IV formulation of aprepitant will be given in place of the oral formulation on study day one. Study drug administration on subsequent days will be given orally as in cycle 1.
This study is being conducted to see if adding GW679769 (casopitant) to ZOFRAN will significantly decrease the number of patients who experience nausea and vomiting after surgery.
This is an investigator initiated dose finding study designed to determine the optimal dose of naloxone to prevent or minimize the most common side effects induced by opioids, namely itching, nausea, and vomiting. Male and female inpatients of the Children's Center of the Johns Hopkins Hospital, who are greater than 6 and less than 18 years of age with acute, moderate to severe pain, and who are to be treated with intravenous Patient controlled analgesia (IVPCA) morphine will be eligible for inclusion in this study. Patients will be recruited by a study investigator prior to the initiation of IVPCA therapy. The majority of patients will be post operative patients, and will start therapy and the investigational drug in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit or the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. The investigators plan on studying between 10 and 99, male and female patients over a 2 year period.
This study is being conducted to see if adding GW679769 (casopitant) to ZOFRAN will significantly decrease the number of patients who experience nausea and vomiting after surgery.
This study seeks to define the tolerability and safety associated with the administration of Dronabinol in the treatment of adults with nausea, vomiting and appetite loss in patients with primary gliomas who are undergoing chemotherapy treatment. The study will also describe the effect of Dronabinol on the quality of life in terms of nausea, vomiting and anorexia in this patient group.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of aprepitant in preventing acute and delayed chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting when administered in combination with intravenous or oral ondansetron and intravenous or oral dexamethasone in the autologous transplant setting.
