Tests treatment safety and results for Nausea With Vomiting Chemotherapy-Induced
Official title BMT-08: A Comparative Effectiveness Study of Transdermal Granisetron to Ondansetron
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04150614
What this study is testing
What is Granisetron Transdermal Patch?
Granisetron Transdermal Patch is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for nausea with vomiting chemotherapy-induced.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Patients undergoing either an autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and receiving preparative chemotherapy experience a considerable amount of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). Current strategies at reducing CINV in this patient population are suboptimal due to lack of efficacy and supportive evidence, potential for increased adverse events, and drug-drug and drug-disease contraindications.
