A questionnaire called the Nausea Vomiting Daily Diary (NV-DD) will be completed once a day, which will be used to collect data for this endpoint. The NV-DD asks participants to record their vomiting frequency in a 24-hour period.
AEs will be coded using the MedDRA coding dictionary. An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject that does not necessarily have causal relationship with treatment. AEs will further be categorized by severity, relationship to study medication, and action taken. All AEs will be presented in data listings for subjects. The Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) is a semi-structured clinical interview designed to systematically assess and track suicidal adverse events (behavior and ideation) throughout different settings including clinical trials. Results from the C-SSRS will be listed for each subject. These data will also be summarized for all subjects for suicidal ideation events, suicidal behaviors, and completed suicides.
Vital sign measurements include oral temperature (C), respiratory rate, semi-supine blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) (mmHg) and semi-supine heart rate (bpm). Criteria for identifying vital signs as Potentially Clinically Notable Abnormalities are based on the Guidelines for the Division of Neuropharmacological Drug Products. Data from vital signs will be listed, clinically notable values will be flagged, and other information collected will be listed. Data will also be summarized using mean change from first study visit and proportion of subjects with values outside the normal range, and values that were clinically notable.
Variables include PR (ms), QRS (ms), QTc (ms), and Heart Rate (bpm). Note: ms = millisecond; bpm = beats per minute
Laboratory data will be summarized by presenting the proportions of patients with clinically notable abnormalities as follows: shift tables, first study visit to most extreme post-treatment value, using normal ranges; summary statistics of raw data and change from first study visit values (means, medians, standard deviations, ranges). Criteria for identifying laboratory values as Potentially Clinically Notable Abnormalities are based on the FDA's Guidelines for the Division of Neuropharmacological Drug Products.
Prevention of vomiting measured by Vomiting Assessment (VA) score. The VA is a 1-item questionnaire to objectively measure the incidence of emesis. Participants will indicate whether or not they have vomited.
Safety will be monitored using clinical measures, vital signs, blood chemistry, hematology, urology, and ECGs.
The Gastroparesis Core Symptom Daily Diary (GCSDD) is a patient reported diary that asks patients to rate the worst occurrence of each cardinal symptom of gastroparesis (nausea severity, early satiety, postprandial fullness, bloating, and abdominal pain) in the past 24 hours on a Likert scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 5 (very severe). Change from baseline in average nausea severity score is calculated as the biweekly average post value minus baseline value of the daily nausea severity score from the GCSDD. A negative change indicates improvement.
Reduction of worst itch in atopic dermatitis as measured by Numerical Rating Scale (NRS). Worst Itch NRS is an assessment tool that is used to report the maximum intensity of participant's itch during a 24-hour recall period. Participants were asked the following question: Please rate the itching severity that describes your worst level of itching in the past 24 hours \[0=No Itch, 10=Worst Itch Imaginable\].
As measured by the Motion Sickness Severity Scale (MSSS) (NRS 0-6); Lower score indicates improvement
Defined as subjects ever vomited (MSSS=6) or terminated early due to severity during the vehicle travel. As measured by the Motion Sickness Severity Scale (NRS 0-6).
The Gastroparesis Core Symptom Daily Diary (GCSDD) is a patient reported diary that asks patients to rate the worst occurrence of each cardinal symptom of gastroparesis (nausea severity, early satiety, postprandial fullness, bloating, and abdominal pain) in the past 24 hours on a Likert scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 5 (very severe). Change from baseline in average nausea severity score is calculated as the weekly average post value minus baseline value of the daily nausea severity score from the GCSDD. A negative change indicates improvement.
Responses were measured on a 100-mm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), where the left endpoint was marked "no itch" (0 mm) and in the right endpoint was marked "worst imaginable itch" (100 mm).
Responses were measured on a 100-mm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), where the left end point was marked "no itch" (0 mm) and in the right end point was marked "worst imaginable itch" (100 mm).

Tradipitant is an investigational oral small molecule developed by Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. as a TACR1 antagonist. It is being studied across several conditions, including atopic dermatitis, idiopathic gastroparesis, motion sickness, and nausea and vomiting, including nausea and vomiting associated with GLP-1 receptor agonist use in obesity.
Tradipitant targets TACR1, also known as the neurokinin-1 receptor, and acts as an antagonist at that receptor. By blocking TACR1, the drug is designed to interfere with substance P signaling, a pathway studied in nausea, vomiting, and inflammatory conditions.
Tradipitant is developed by Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc., which trades under the ticker VNDA. Vanda is the sponsor of the clinical trials evaluating the drug in gastroparesis, motion sickness, and nausea and vomiting, including studies in people using GLP-1 receptor agonists.
Tradipitant is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and is not described as approved; Vanda Pharmaceuticals is running Phase 3 trials in motion sickness and in nausea and vomiting related to GLP-1 receptor agonist use, alongside completed Phase 3 and Phase 2 studies.
Tradipitant trials include NCT07446439, a recruiting Phase 3 study of nausea and vomiting induced by GLP-1 receptor agonist use in obesity, and NCT06138613, an active Phase 3 open-label study in motion sickness. Completed studies include NCT06836557 in gastroparesis and NCT06804603 in obesity-related nausea and vomiting.
Tradipitant is being studied as a treatment for atopic dermatitis as part of Vanda Pharmaceuticals' broader development program for the TACR1 antagonist. Its clinical trial activity spans dermatology as well as gastroparesis, motion sickness, and nausea and vomiting, reflecting investigation across several therapeutic areas.
