Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Evaluation of nausea and vomiting The relative change in VAS* associated with nausea and vomiting will be evaluated between T1 (measured at least 2 hours after the start of chemotherapy injection) and T2 (measured at least 6 hours after the start of injection of the drug chemotherapy).
*VAS : from 0 to 10 ; 0 is no nausea or vomiting and 10 is insufferable nausea or vomiting
6 hours
Secondary Nausea and vomiting between each chemotherapy Between each chemotherapy the patient notes daily whether or not he has had nausea on a notebook. Day 0, between day 14 and day 21, between day 28 and day 42, between day 42 and day 63.
Secondary Quality of life Relative variation of the EORTC QLQC 30* (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer) between the inclusion visit (V2) and the end-of-study visit (V6).
*EORTC QLQ C30 : All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level.
Between day 0 and day 78
Secondary Anxiety Relative variation of the HADS* (Hospital and Anxiety Depression Scale) anxiety score between the inclusion visit (V2) and the end-of-study visit (V6).
*HADS : 0 to 21, the highest scores corresponding to the presence of a more severe symptomatology
Between day 0 and day 78
Secondary Body image Evaluation of the body image to the end-of-study visit by the Body Image Questionnaire* (BIC), which measures the body image at a given moment t. The analysis will take into account the self-esteem assessed upon the inclusion visit on the Rosenberg scale** (V2).
*BIC : The total score is between 19 and 95.
**Rosenberg Scale : The total score ranges from 10 to 40. A score below 31 is considered low self-esteem
