Brief summary in scientific language

The submitted observational study is intended to test the influence of the patients' quality of life after taking the quality-assured formulation of Rolapitant capsules 180 mg for the prophylaxis of chemoinduced nausea and vomiting (CINV) by means of a questionnaire (functional living index emesis according to Lindley C). The questionnaires will be evaluated intraindividually comparatively and compared with literature data on the finished drugs Varuby® and Emend®. By using rolapitant instead of another representative of the NK1 antagonists, the interaction rate with other drugs can be reduced and due to the long half-life of the active ingredient, a single dose on day 1 of the chemotherapy cycle is possible. In addition, the stability of the capsules will be verified by quantitative HPLC analysis. There are no additional risks for the patients by participating in the study. The study duration for the individual patient is expected to be from enrollment in the study to a maximum of day 13 of the respective chemotherapy cycle. The study is being conducted in cooperation between the pharmacy and the III Medical Clinic of the University Medical Center Mainz.

Interventions, Observational Groups

Arm 1:
Patients on highly emetogenic chemotherapy protocol receiving the antiemesis triple rolapitant, granisetron, and dexamethasone for CINV prophylaxis

Endpoints

Primary outcome:

Secondary outcome:
Review of assigned antiemetic prophylaxis via patient chart regarding correct assignment and proper administration, as well as review of whether additional antiemetics were given as on-demand medication during the course of the chemotherapy protocol
