Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of dolasetron mesylate in controlling nausea and vomiting in the first 24 hours and to extend these comparisons over the next 4 days in patients receiving moderately emetogenic chemotherapy. Methods: This was a single center, open-labeled study with single arm. Dolasetron (1.8 mg/kg) was given intravenously (I.V.) prechemotherapy with 10 mg of dexamethasone IV, followed 24 hours later by oral dolasetron (200 mg once daily) for the subsequent 4 days. The frequency of vomiting, severity of nausea and the presence of rescue antiemetics were assessed daily. Results: Of 30 patients enrolled, 28 were eligible and evaluable for the efficacy. Four out of 28 patients had complete control of nausea and vomiting without any rescue antiemetics through 5 days. The complete control got better as time went by with the rates of 17.9/46.4/42.9/53.6/60.7% on days 1 to 5. Vomiting was better controlled than nausea in both cisplatin-containing and non-containing chemotherapy. The adverse events were mild to moderate degrees of headache, diarrhea and fever, but were recovered spontaneously. Conclusion: Dolasetron was effective and safe for the control of nausea and vomiting in the patients with moderately emetogenic chemotherapeutic agents.
목적: 전향적 임상시험을 통해 중등도 이상의 오심, 구토를 유발하는 항암화학요법제 투여로 인한 급성 및 지연성 오심, 구토의 예방에 있어서 dolasetron mesylate의 유효성 및 안정성을 평가하고자 하였다. 방법: 단일 기관에서 공개형, 단일군 임상시험으로 시행되었다. Dolasetron (1.8 mg/kg)과 dexmamethosone 10 mg을 항함화학요법 시작전에 투여하고 나서 이후 24시간 후부터 4일 연속 경구형 dolasetron(200 mg, 1일 1회)을 투여하였다. 구토의 빈도 오심의 중증도,
