Ondansetron in Preventing Nausea and Vomiting in Patients Undergoing a Stem Cell Transplant
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by National Cancer Institute (NCI), December 2008
Sponsors and Collaborators: Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00795769
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Ondansetron may prevent nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing a autologous stem cell transplant.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well ondansetron works in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing a stem cell transplant.

Study Design: Supportive Care, Open Label
Official Title: Prevention of DMSO-Related Nausea and Vomiting by Prophylactic Administration of Ondansetron for Patients Receiving Autologous Cryopreserved Peripheral Blood Stem Cells

Further study details as provided by National Cancer Institute (NCI):

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Reduction of nausea to ≤ 25% and vomiting to ≤ 10% related to dimethyl sulfoxide-preserved autologous hematopoietic stem cells [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Incidence of nausea and vomiting [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 50
Study Start Date: July 2008
Estimated Primary Completion Date: December 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine whether a single dose of intravenous ondansetron hydrochloride reduces the incidence of nausea, retching, and vomiting in patients receiving dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-preserved autologous peripheral blood stem cells.
  • Assess the number of patients who experience nausea, retching, and vomiting related to DMSO-preserved autologous hematopoietic stem cell administration.

OUTLINE: Patients receive ondansetron hydrochloride IV over 30-60 minutes prior to each daily autologous peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation. Infusion of cryopreserved PBSC is administered per standard practice guidelines; the cells may not be washed to remove dimethyl sulfoxide prior to infusion.

Patients complete a nausea survey using the MASCC MAT nausea scale before receiving ondansetron hydrochloride and after receiving each infusion of cryopreserved PBSC.
