Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 2-item nausea-score from EORTC-QLQ-C15-Pal at baseline and 1 week

    The primary objective is to observe the effect of standard anti-emetics on change in two-item nausea-score from baseline to 24 hours.

    From baseline and at 1 week (5-9 days)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Nausea CAT-score from EORTC-QLQ-C15-Pal at baseline and after 1 week

    1 week (5-9 days)

  • Nausea at screening from EORTC-QLQ-C15-Pal at baseline

    At baseline

  • Emesis at screening from EORTC-QLQ-C15-Pal at baseline

    At baseline

  • Change in other parameters from EORTC-QLQ-C15-Pal at baseline and after 1 week

    From baseline and at 1 week (5-9 days)

Study Arms (1)

Patients

Patients over 18 years old with advanced cancer defined as metastatic disease, no curable treatment options. The patients may not have received chemotherapy or irradiation within 4 weeks, no operations within 2 weeks and no general anesthesia within 4 days.

Study Population

Patients with advanced cancer, who have not received chemo- or radiotherapy in the last 4 weeks prior to screening, will be screened for nausea and/or vomiting following evaluation of the primary inclusion-/exclusion criteria.

  • Advanced cancer
  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Ability to read and understand the forms required for the study
  • Life-expectancy more than 2 weeks.
  • Nausea score ≥ 'a little' on the extended EORTC QLQ-C15-PAL (item 9)

You may not qualify if:

  • Surgery to the brain or abdomen within the last 2 weeks or exposure to general anesthesia within the last 4 days.
  • Chemotherapy or radiation therapy within the last 4 weeks
