Granisetron Extended Release Injection (GERSC) for the Prevention of Chemotherapy-induced Nausea and Vomiting

NCT04085393 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2020-09-30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) adversely affects patients' quality of life and may affect patients' treatment decisions. The emetogenicity of the chemotherapy administered and specific patient characteristics such as female gender, age, and history of low alcohol intake can increase a patients' risk for CINV.

GERSC is a new, subcutaneously (SC) administered polymeric formulation of Granisetron that was developed to provide slow, controlled, and sustained release of Granisetron to prevent both acute and delayed CINV associated with moderately emetic chemotherapy (MEC) and highly emetic chemotherapy (HEC)

GRANISETRON EXTENDED RELEASE INJECTION (GERSC)

GERSC is a new, subcutaneously (SC) administered polymeric formulation of granisetron that was developed to provide slow, controlled, and sustained release of granisetron to prevent both acute and delayed CINV associated with MEC and HEC. Due to the prolonged efficacy, GERSC may potentially improve CINV in the acute and delayed periods and the single dose regimen may improve patient adherence to antiemetic therapy
