Active clinical trials for "Vomiting"

This study will examine what the body does while taking GW679769 alone and together with rifampin in healthy adult subjects.

Casopitant may affect liver enzymes that metabolize ketoconazole. This study is designed to test the safety and the extent of the Casopitant affect on ketoconazole levels in healthy human subjects.

The purposes of the study are to determine: i. To assess the efficacy of Tigan® (trimethobenzamide) in preventing nausea and vomiting when initiating therapy with Apokyn® (apomorphine) ii. To determine the optimal duration for continuation of Tigan® following initiation of Apokyn® therapy iii. To assess the safety of Tigan® in combination with Apokyn® iv. To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of apomorphine in subjects treated concomitantly with and without Tigan®

The aim of this clinical trial is to assess the symptomatic efficacy and the impact on the utilization of healthcare resources of a treatment by gastric electrical stimulation (ENTERRA ®) in patients with refractory nausea and/or vomiting leading to a nutritional impairment. Eligible patients will be those with refractory symptoms either idiopathic, postsurgical or due to diabetes mellitus. The duration of the study will be 28 months for each patient. After a run-in period of 4 months during which a prospective assessment of healthcare resources utilization and of the severity of the symptoms will be obtained, patients will be implanted. The follow-up period after implantation of the device will last 24 months in every patients and will be divided in two parts: a) After the first postoperative month during which the device will remained on the "OFF" position, the first phase of the study will be a randomized double-blind cross-over study with 2 periods of 4 months during which the device will be activated or not. After the 9th month of follow up, the trial will be an open trial and the device will be activated in all patients. During the whole trial, patients will record all types of healthcare resources utilizations (hospitalizations, drug treatments, endoscopic procedures…) while the symptomatic efficacy of the treatment will be assessed by standard questionnaires at the following visits scheduled at 1, 5, 9, 12, 18, 24 months. The glycemic control will be determined at each visit in diabetic patients. A delayed gastric emptying will not be a selection criteria but we have planned to analyze the clinical results of the treatment in taking into account a delayed or normal gastric emptying during the pre-implantation period. Moreover, gastric emptying studies have been scheduled at 5, 9, 12 and 24 months to test the impact of gastric electrical stimulation on gastric emptying.

This is a Phase III trial designed to demonstrate that casopitant (GW679769) plus dexamethasone and ondansetron is more effective in the prevention of vomiting than dexamethasone and ondansetron alone following the administration of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.

This study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of an investigational agent administered in addition to a standard anti-emetic regimen for the treatment of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of ramosetron plus dexamethasone injection with granisetron plus dexamethasone injection for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced vomiting and nausea.

This study aim to find out the effectiveness of 1 mg intravenous haloperidol compared to 5 mg intravenous dexamethasone to prevent the occurrence of nausea and vomiting also as pain control in adult patients after laparoscopic surgery.

The purpose of CLCT-006, a multi-center open-label study, is to evaluate the safety of CL-108 (hydrocodone 7.5 mg/APAP 325 mg, promethazine 12.5 mg) for the treatment of moderate to severe acute pain ("flare") associated with osteoarthritis of the knee or hip under actual conditions of use.

Subcutaneous (SC) route has become a standard of care of many drugs administration in palliative medicine. A preliminary study showed that, although it was widely adopted among palliative care practitioners for routinely prescribed medications, standards of proof are still lacking for many molecules. Among them, metoclopramide is a largely employed drug for nausea and vomiting treatment, particularly in palliative care and oncology. Therefore, the investigator aim to study absorption and efficacy of subcutaneous administration of metoclopramide.
