BACKGROUND: Neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists, such as aprepitant are currently emerging as powerful prophylactic agents for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). Therefore, it is important to adjust the anti-emetic regimens based on personal risk factors of the patient, duration of the chemotherapy regimen and cost-effectiveness.
PURPOSE: To determine the efficacy of the 3-day aprepitant along with ondansetron and dexamethasone in controlling CINV in patients with large B cell lymphoma receiving multiday-cisplatin regimen chemotherapy.
METHODS: This is a pilot prospective cross-over trial. Patients were allocated to either aprepitant 125mg on day 1 and 80mg on days 2 & 3 or placebo in the first 2 cycles, with crossover to the opposite treatment in the 3rd and 4th cycles. The primary end point was complete response (CR) of both acute (days 1-5) and delayed (days 6-8) CINV. CR means neither to develop emetic episodes nor to use rescue anti-emetics medication.
RESULTS: Twelve of the 15 patients recruited for the study were fully evaluable and completed 4 cycles of ESHAP regimen with a total of 48 cycles given. In the cycles with aprepitant and those without the CR were 83.3% and 0% respectively (p<0.05). Patients receiving aprepitant in the first 2 cycles recorded less nausea in subsequent cycles that were given without aprepitant. This was not statistically significant.
CONCLUSION: This triple anti-emetic regimen showed efficacy in controlling the multi-day cisplatin-induced nausea and vomiting. Further randomized controlled trials are needed to compare between 3-day and 7-day aprepitant for multi-day cisplatin regimens.
