Clinical Trial Summary

Olanzapine-containing regimens for CINV prophylaxis may provide even better protection than aprepitant-containing regimens.


Clinical Trial Description

Olanzapine-containing regimens for CINV provide high complete response (CR) rate in patients receiving high emetogenic chemotherapy. Olanzapine may be more effective than aprepitant in this setting but cheaper. However, there is no strong evidence supporting the advantages of olanzapine over aprepitant - and this is the reason why aprepitant is still the standard of care. Due to high cost aprepitant can be not affordable in low- and middle income countries; this compromises quality of life of cancer patients. On the other hand, recommended olanzapine-based regimen includes palonosetron, whose price is quite high as well and undesired sedation is a common side effect for olanzapine doses that currently recommended, these adverse events precludes wide use of olanzapine in oncology. Development of effective, tolerable and affordable regimen for CINV prophylaxis based on low-dose olanzapine and short-acting 5-HT3 inhibitors can improve quality of care for many cancer patients. ;
