Low Dose Aprepitant for Patients Receiving Carboplatin
Chemotherapy-induced Nausea and VomitingThis study evaluates a simple one day prophylaxis of nausea and vomiting for patients who are getting carboplatin based chemotherapy. In addition to standard oral dexmethasone and oral ondansetrone, participants will be given a third neurokinin 1 (NK1) antagonist agent, either Aprepitant or Fosaprepitant (they have been shown to be equally effective) to improve prevention of nausea and vomiting. No medications need to be taken beyond day 1.

Dexamethasone vs Ondansetron After Cesarean Delivery
Nausea and VomitingPostoperative2 moreThe goal of this clinical trial is to compare medications in women having a cesarean delivery. The main question it aims to answer are: • Which medication is better to use as a first-line prevention agent for nausea and vomiting Participants will rate their nausea, pain and other symptoms after surgery Researchers will compare two drugs, ondansetron and dexamethasone to see if the side effects of pain medications are improved after cesarean.
Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting in Laparoscopic Abdominal Surgery
Postoperative NauseaVomitingThe goal of this clinical trial is to compare frequency with postoperative nausea and vomiting in ASA( American Society of Anesthesiologists) I, II patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Primary Outcome is the incidence of nausea and vomiting between 0-6 and 6-24 hours postoperatively and the need for additional antiemetics Secondary outcome is detection of additional analgesic needs and complications between 0-6 and 6-24 hours postoperatively. Participants will receive aprepitant or granisetron for prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting.

Laparoscopic CholecystectomyPostoperative Nausea and VomitingNausea and vomiting are some of the most common complaints of patients after any anesthesia, which is often associated with postop-erative pain. The double-blind clinical trial study aimed to compare the prophylactic effect of dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine and their combination in reducing postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Body Surface Gastric Mapping to Evaluate Patients With Upper Gastrointestinal Symptoms and Controls...
Motility DisorderGastroparesis4 moreThis is an analytical validation observational cohort study is designed to provide evidence of: safety and reliability of Body Surface Gastric Mapping using the Gastric Alimetry System (GAS), normal reference values, and correlation of metrics with patient symptoms among healthy adults and patients diagnosed with upper abdominal motility disorders. GAS is intended to record, store, view and process gastric myoelectrical activity. This is a proprietary system consisting of multiple electrodes arranged on an array that is placed precisely over the stomach, a reader to collect the electrode measurements and a smart tablet application to track patient reported symptoms. Participants meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria will continue fasting for 30 minutes after the Gastric Alimetry System has been applied and begun measuring, eat a standard study meal within 10 minutes and remain quietly seated, reclining, for 4 hours as the GAS continues to collect data. The array is removed and the abdomen is examined for evidence of skin effects.
Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous Versus Oral 5-HT3 Antagonists Combined With NK-1 Receptor Antagonists...
Breast CancerChemotherapy-induced Nausea and VomitingChemotherapy is one of the most common treatments for breast cancer, but the adverse effects can be severe enough to delay or make chemotherapy intolerable, thus affecting the efficacy of the disease. Women and younger patients are more likely to experience chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) . Therefore, antiemetic drugs is a key way to reduce chemotherapy side effects, which ensures compliance, and maintain quality of life. CINV is usually induced by two pathways. The central pathway is mediated by neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptors, where chemotherapeutic agents stimulate the secretion of substance-P (SP) from the vomiting center located in the medulla oblongata and nucleus accumbens, which binds to NK-1 receptors and induces vomiting. The peripheral pathway is mediated by 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 (5-HT3) receptors, and chemotherapy stimulates intestinal chromophores in the gastrointestinal mucosa to secrete 5-HT3, which binds to its receptors to induce vomiting. Most guidelines currently recommend the combination of 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, NK-1 receptor antagonists, and dexamethasone for high-emetogenic-risk chemotherapy regimens. Usually 5-HT3 receptor antagonists include granisetron, ondansetron, and palonosetron. Palonosetron is a second-generation 5-HT3 receptor antagonist with stronger affinity and higher efficacy than other antagonists. The commonly used NK-1 receptor antagonists are aprepitant and fosaprepitant. Fosaprepitant is an aprepitant prodrug that can be rapidly converted to aprepitant in the body, blocking the binding of substance P to NK-1 receptors for antiemetic purposes. Clinical trial has confirmed that the overall complete response (CR) rate of palonosetron 0.75 mg combined with fosaprepitant and dexamethasone was 54.9%, with 75.9% CR in the acute phase (0-24 h after chemotherapy) and 62.3% in the delayed phase (24-72 h after chemotherapy). Another clinical trial showed an acute phase CR of 89.8% and a delayed phase CR of 90.4% for oral aprepitant combined with intravenous palonosetron 0.75 mg and dexamethasone. The data suggests that both oral and intravenous administration are effective in preventing CINV, but there are no clinical trial results for oral versus intravenous administration. Oral administration is painless, has fewer side effects, and is a safer mode of administration, but bioavailability is different and drug absorption is affected by a variety of factors; whereas intravenous injection has rapid onset of action, but there are risks of injection reactions, phlebitis, and infection. Therefore, we hope to conduct a non-inferiority study on the efficacy of oral and intravenous 5-HT3 receptor antagonists combined with NK-1 receptor antagonists through this trial, which can provide more options for patients by combining the cost and administration methods.
