Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • No nausea (self report sclae VAS=0)rate in delayed phase (Days2-7) in the first cycle chemotherapy

    The rate of no nausea on Day 2-7 in the first chemotherapy cycle (each cycle is 21 days). The no nausea is defined as score zero with a self-report measure scale,the visual analogue (VAS) scale (0,no symptom, 10, most severely).

    Day 2-7 in the first chemotherapy cycle(each cycle is 21 days)

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • No nausea rates (VAS=0)for delayed phases (Days2-7) during 2nd to 4th or 6th chemotherapy cycle,respectively.

    Day 2-7 in each chemotherapy cycle (each cycle is 21 days)

  • The complete response rates of vomiting (no emetic episode and no rescue) in acute (Day1),delayed(Day2-7), and overall phase(Day 1-7) during 1st to 4th or 6th cycle, respectively.

    Day 1-7 in 4-6 cycles(each cycle is 21 days)

  • The rate of no anorexia (VAS=0) and score of anorexia (assessed by VAS) in Day1-7 during 1st-4th or 6th cycle chemotherapy

    Day 1-7 in each cycle(each cycle is 21 days)

  • The score of fatigue by VAS in day1-7 in1st to 4th or 6th chemotherapy cycle,respectively.

    Day 1-7 in each cycle(each cycle is 21 days)

  • The score of sedation(by self-report VAS) in day 1-7 in each cycle

    Day 1-7 in each cycle(each cycle is 21 days)

  • +2 more secondary outcomes
