Ph3 Safety/Efficacy Study of Rolapitant for the Prevention of CINV in Subjects Receiving Highly Emetogenic Chemotherapy
Completed · Phase 3 · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Chemotherapy-induced Nausea and Vomiting
In brief
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, active-controlled study of rolapitant in subjects receiving HEC. Rolapitant or placebo will be administered prior to initiation of chemotherapy on Day 1 with granisetron and dexamethasone. Subjects will record all events of emesis and use of rescue medication for established nausea and/or vomiting, and will indicate the severity of nausea they experienced in each of the previous 24 hours in the Nausea and Vomiting (NV) Subject Diary prior to HEC administration through Day 6 of Cycle 1. Health-related quality of life will be measured by the FLIE Questionnaire on Day 6 of Cycle 1. Safety and tolerability will be assessed by clinical review of adverse events (AEs), physical examinations, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and safety laboratory values. All subjects are expected to complete Cycle 1 and will have the option of participating in up to five additional cycles.
