Study Summary

This randomized phase III trial studies how well olanzapine with or without fosaprepitant work in preventing chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy that causes vomiting. Olanzapine and fosaprepitant dimeglumine may help control nausea and vomiting in patients during chemotherapy. Olanzapine is usually given in combination with other drugs, including fosaprepitant dimeglumine. It is not yet known if olanzapine when given with other drugs, is still effective without using fosaprepitant dimeglumine for controlling nausea and vomiting.

Primary Outcome

The specific measure will be based on the proportion of patients with a value of 0, as measured by the single nausea item (scale 0-10, 0 is no symptoms, 10 is worst symptoms) of the Questionnaire. A modified intent-to-treat principle will be applied for statistical analysis of efficacy in evaluable patients. The proportions of patients with no nausea during the overall, the acute, and the delayed period will be summarized by treatment arm. They will be tested in a sequential manner, using a Sime
