Summary

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting are serious side effects of cancer treatment that can have a significant negative impact on a patient's quality of life. Although the prevalence of nausea and vomiting has significantly decreased due to the implementation of new antiemetic drugs, several studies revealed that approximately 30% to 60% of patients still complain of acute or delayed chemotherapy-induced emesis. It is estimated that slow infusion of ondansetron in combination with dexamethasone can provide long-lasting stable concentrations of drugs in the blood serum contributing to better effect development. Therefore, the investigators suggest a continuous infusion of the above-mentioned drug combination as an alternative with potential superior activity.
