Brief Summary

This is a Phase 2, randomized, multicenter, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of various doses of SCH 619734 in subjects receiving cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Ondansetron and dexamethasone will be concurrently administered with SCH 619734 before initiation of chemotherapy on Day 1. Subjects will record nausea and vomiting in the SPNV Subject Diary through Day 6. The quality of life assessment as measured by the Functional Living Index-Emesis Questionnaire (FLIE) will be used to measure the effect of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) on daily life. Blood samples for SCH 619734 pharmacokinetic assessments will be collected. The study is to be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice.

Conditions

Nausea; Vomiting

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The primary efficacy endpoint is the overall complete response rate (no emesis and no use of rescue medication from 0 through 120 hours following initiation of cisplatin-based chemotherapy).

  Days 1 through 6.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• The key secondary efficacy endpoints are the complete response rates for the acute (0 through 24 hours) and delayed (>24 through 120 hours) phases of CINV.

  Days 1 through 6.

• The key secondary safety endpoints are adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, electrocardiograms, and safety laboratory values.

  Throughout the study and up to 30 days after the subject completes or discontinues from the study.
