GR 38032F (GR-C507/75): a novel compound effective in the prevention of acute cisplatin-induced emesis.

Abstract: We evaluated, in a multi-center trial, the safety and efficacy of GR 38032F (GR-C507/75), a novel and selective serotonin antagonist, in preventing acute emesis in chemotherapy-naive patients receiving treatment with regimens containing high-dose cisplatin (greater than or equal to 100 mg/m2). Eighty-five patients were randomized to receive GR 38032F, 0.18 mg/kg, either every six or every eight hours for three doses, beginning 30 minutes before cisplatin. Patients were evaluated for emetic episodes (vomiting o… Show more

“…1) [2] indicating that simpler treatment schedules may be just as effective as repeated doses or infusions. In support of this observation, a similar degree of emetic control was achieved when ondansetron was administered in doses of 0.15-0.18 mg/kg every 2, 4, 6 or 8 h for 3 doses [1,8,9]. The urinary excretion of 5-hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-H1AA), the main metabolite of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT or serotonin), has also been shown to increase in the 4-to 6-hour period following cisplatin, indicating the likely depletion of 5-HT from the enterochromaffin cells within a few hours after cisplatin administration, in paral lel with the development of emesis [5].…”

“…Alkoholabusus (>10()mg/d über Jahre) scheint eine protektive Wirkung gegen das DDPinduzierte Erbrechen zu besitzen [1,10]. In vielen Fällen nehmen Nausea und Emesis bei Folgezyklen der Chemothera pie zu und sind bei Zw'eit-Chemotherapien schwieriger zu beherrschen als bei Ersttherapien [18,24].…”
