| NCT02006056 | Ondissolve in the Prophylaxis/Rescue of Radiation Induced Nausea and Vomiting | PHASE2 | COMPLETED | 30 | — | — | Nov 1, 2013 | Jun 1, 2014 | Aug 16, 2018 | 1 | Canada |
The primary objectives are to examine the efficacy for the prevention/rescue of Acute and Delayed Phase radiation-induced nausea and vomiting (RINV) in patients undergoing single or multiple fraction, emetogenic palliative radiation therapy for painful bone metastases. Complete control: No increase in emetic episodes or increase in use of rescue medication (for secondary prophylaxis) following radiation treatment, compared to the number of incidences at baseline. Partial control: Increase of 2 or fewer emetic episodes from baseline and no use of rescue antiemetic medication during or after radiotherapy. Uncontrolled: Increase of three or more emetic episodes or use of antiemetic rescue medication.
