5-hydroxytryptamine-receptor antagonists versus prochlorperazine for control of delayed nausea caused by doxorubicin: a URCC CCOP randomised controlled trial

Abstract: SummaryBackground-Despite widespread use of short-acting antagonists for the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor, about 50% of patients given moderately emetogenic chemotherapy have delayed nausea. We aimed to assess whether a 5-HT-receptor antagonist was more effective than was prochlorperazine for control of delayed nausea and delayed vomiting caused by doxorubicin.

“…The home-record questionnaire enables the patient to note nausea, vomiting, and use of antiemetic drugs and was used in our prior URCC CCOP protocol examining DN (see Introduction). 17 Every day is divided into four segments (morning, afternoon, evening, and night), and patients report the severity of nausea and number of vomiting episodes for the periods of that day. Severity of nausea was assessed by use of a 7-point semantic rating scale, ranging from 1 (not at all nauseated) to 7 (extremely nauseated).…”

“…1), (3aS)-2-[(S)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-3-yl]-2,3,3a,4,5,6-hexahydro-1H-benz [de]isoquinolin-1-one hydrochloride, is a pharmacologically distinct and highly selective, secondgeneration 5-hydroxytryptamine type-3 (5-HT3) receptor antagonist approved for prevention of chemotherapy-and radiotherapy-induced nausea and vomit (CINV) after highly emetogenic chemotherapy. [1][2][3][4] Chemotherapy-and radiotherapyinduced nausea and vomit will have a series of related complications if they lack control; these are the most feared adverse reactions in cancer patients. 5-HT3 receptor antagonized mainly through competing to block the release of 5-HT and 5-HT3 receptor-binding of digestive tract mucosa in order to have a role in anti-vomit treatment.…”

“…[1][2][3] Nausea and vomiting (NV) are still among the most common, expected and feared side effects among patients receiving chemotherapy. [1][2][3] In fact, some cancer patients who experience chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) will delay chemotherapy treatments and contemplate refusing future treatments because of fear of further NV. [1][2][3][4] Anticipatory nausea and vomiting (ANV) are also problems among chemotherapy patients.…”

[1][2][3][4] Anticipatory nausea and vomiting (ANV) are also problems among chemotherapy patients. By the fourth treatment cycle, anticipatory nausea has been reported in up to 30% of patients who had nausea following earlier chemotherapy cycles, 5 while rates of anticipatory vomiting have been reported as high as 20%.…”
