Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Complete Response in the Overall Phase (0-120 Hours) Following Initiation of the First Cycle of an Oxaliplatin Based Moderately Emetogenic Chemotherapy (MEC) Regimen
0 to 120 hours in the first cycle of chemotherapy

Complete response was defined as no vomiting, no retching and no use of anti-emetic rescue medication. Participants who vomited or retched or received rescue medication in the acute phase (0- 24 hours) following administration of oxaliplatin were also considered as complete response failures in the subsequent delayed (24-120 hour) time period, irrespective of actual response in the delayed phase. However, participants who vomited or retched or received rescue medication in the delayed (24-120 hours) phase were not considered as failures in the acute (0-24 hours) phase. The overall phase began at the start of the administration of the oxaliplatin infusion. Percentage of participants who achieved a complete response in the overall phase (0-120 hours) are presented.

Number of participants who achieved complete response
Up to 120 hours of cycle 1 of HEC

Complete response was defined as no vomiting/retching and no rescue therapy) over the first 120 hours following the initiation of their first cycle of a cisplatin-based HEC regimen. Vomiting was defined as the forceful expulsion of gastrointestinal contents through the mouth or nose. Retching was defined as the labored, spasmodic, rhythmic contraction of the respiratory and abdominal muscles in an attempt to vomit, that was not productive of gastrointestinal contents (also known as "dry heaves").
