| Fosaprepitant Regimen | EXPERIMENTAL | On Day 1, participants received fosaprepitant, 150 mg intravenous (IV) infusion, \~30 minutes prior to chemotherapy PLUS dexamethasone 12 mg, orally (PO) \~30 minutes prior to chemotherapy PLUS ondansetron 16 mg total dose: 8 mg PO \~30-60 minutes prior to chemotherapy, followed by 8 mg PO, 8 hours after first dose PLUS dexamethasone placebo, PO \~30 minutes prior to chemotherapy. On Days 2 and 3, participants received ondansetron placebo, PO every 12 hours. Rescue Therapy: For established cases of nausea or vomiting, medications may have been prescribed from these permitted choices: 5-HT3 antagonists (granisetron, dolasetron, tropisetron or ondansetron); phenothiazines (e.g. prochlorperazine, fluphenazine, perphenazine, thiethylperazine, or chlorpromazine); butyrophenones (e.g. haloperidol or droperidol); benzamides (e.g. metoclopramide or alizapride); benzodiazepines; corticosteroids; domperidone. |
