Efficacy and safety of olanzapine combined with aprepitant, palonosetron, and dexamethasone for preventing nausea and vomiting induced by cisplatin-based chemotherapy in gynecological cancer: KCOG-G1301 phase II trial

Purpose Prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is crucial for maintaining the quality of life of cancer patients. Female patients have been underrepresented in previous clinical studies of aprepitant or palonosetron. We performed a prospective multicenter study to investigate the efficacy and safety of triple therapy comprising these two agents and dexamethasone in female cancer patients receiving chemotherapy that included cisplatin (≥50 mg/m2).
