The Oral Neurokinin-1 Antagonist Aprepitant for the Prevention of Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting: A Multinational, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial in Patients Receiving High-Dose Cisplatin—The Aprepitant Protocol 052 Study Group

Abstract: Compared with standard dual therapy, addition of aprepitant was generally well tolerated and provided consistently superior protection against CINV in patients receiving highly emetogenic cisplatin-based chemotherapy.

“…Nausea has not been signifcantly improved by the use of fosaprepitant (aprepitant) in 2 phase 3 studies of patients receiving cisplatin 22,23 and in 2 phase 3 studies of patients receiving an anthracycline and cyclophosphamide chemotherapy regimen. 24,25 Two reviews on the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea concluded that NK-1 receptor antagonists are not efective in controlling nausea.…”

“…Involvement of substance P and NK 1 has been suggested in the generation of delayed emesis following the treatment with chemotherapeutic agents (20). Recent studies further demonstrated the suppression of delayed emesis by aprepitant in both humans and animals (4,5,10), although brain-nonpenetrating NK 1 antagonists are ineffective (21). Cisplatin induced long-lasting emesis in ferrets for 72 h. T-2328 inhibited the cisplatin-induced delayed emesis by i.v.…”

“…NK 1 receptors are widely expressed throughout the central nervous system (3) and are involved in the regulation of various behavioral, endocrine, and autonomic functions. Based on the pharmacological data and recent clinical trials, it has emerged that blockade of brain tachykinin NK 1 receptors may provide a novel treatment of emesis (4,5), major depression (6), and anxiety problems (7). Therefore, there have been subsequent developments of selective and potent NK 1 -receptor antagonists (8).…”

“…Despite significant progress in the prevention of chemotherapyinduced nausea and vomiting (CINV), emesis continues to be associated with a significant deterioration in quality of life in patients treated with combination chemotherapy [3]. The addition of the brain-penetrant neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist (NK1-RA) aprepitant, to a 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 receptor antagonist (5HT3-RA) and dexamethasone improved the prevention of CINV in patients receiving highly emetogenic single-day cisplatin chemotherapy [4][5][6]. In the Hoosier Cancer Research Network (HCRN), a phase III study was conducted with a 5HT3-RA plus dexamethasone plus either aprepitant or placebo in a randomized double-blind placebo controlled study of patients receiving 5 day cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy.…”
