2015
TPS9639 Background: Olanzapine is proved to be effective for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). But its preventive efficacy in combination with standard antiemetic therapy (palonosetron, aprepitant, and dexamethasone) is unknown. The purpose of this study is to prove the preventive effect of olanzapine for the prevention of CINV caused by highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC) when used with standard antiemetic therapy. We started a prospective multicenter phase II study at six facilities related to Kansai Clinical Oncology Group (KCOG) since September 2013. Methods: Chemo-naive patients aged 20-79 years old is enrolled. They are gynecologic cancer patients who are treated with HEC regimen containing cisplatin (more than 50 mg/m2). Target sample size is 40.

All patients are informed of drug information and t...
