Authorised Phase II and Phase III (Integrated) Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting

An open-label, pharmacokinetic, safety, and efficacy study (Part I, single cycle) and double-blind, efficacy, non inferiority, and safety study of IV NEPA (Part II, repeated cycles) versus active comparator in the prevention of CINV in paediatric cancer patients undergoing single-day HEC and multi-day HEC.

EU CTIS ID: 2024-514321-39-00

What this study is testing

Part I: Cohort 1: To confirm by netupitant PK assessment that a single dose of 3.13 mg/kg IV fosnetupitant (for patients aged ≥3 months up to 24-120 h) phase of emesis in paediatric cancer patients aged between ≥6 months and <18 years receiving multi-day HEC.

You likely can't join if

  • Part I and Part II: Patient has received or is scheduled to receive total body irradiation; total nodal irradiation; upper abdomen radiotherapy; half or upper body irradiation; or radiotherapy of the cranium, craniospinal regions, head and neck, lower thorax region, or the pelvis within 1 week prior to study entry (Day 1) or within 120 h after last study drug administration.
  • Part I and Part II: Any illness or condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may pose unwarranted risks in administering the investigational product to the patient.
  • Part I and Part II: Uncontrolled medical condition (e.g., uncontrolled insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus).
  • Part I and Part II: Patient experiencing ongoing vomiting from any organic aetiology (including patients with history of gastric outlet obstruction or intestinal obstruction due to adhesions or volvulus), or patient with hydrocephalus.
  • Part I and Part II: Use of any drugs or substances known to interfere with CYP3A4 or CYP2D6 enzymes within 1 week prior to Day 1
