Pilot Study Evaluating Aprepitant (MK-869) for Prevention of Nausea & Vomiting Secondary to High Dose Cyclophosphamide Administered to Patients Underging Undergoing Peripheral Hematopoietic Progenitor Cell Mobilization Prior to Autologous Transplantation


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- Evaluate the efficacy of the addition of aprepitant in controlling acute vomiting with
the standard prophylactic anti-emetic combination of granisetron hydrochloride and
dexamethasone in patients receiving therapy comprising high-dose cyclophosphamide to
mobilize stem cells prior to leukapheresis for autologous stem cell transplantation.

Secondary

- Evaluate the efficacy of the addition of aprepitant in controlling delayed vomiting in
these patients.

- Evaluate the efficacy of the addition of aprepitant in controlling overall nausea in
these patients.

- Identify side effects of the addition of aprepitant to this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive granisetron hydrochloride orally or IV and oral dexamethasone,
followed 1 hour later by cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on day 1. Patients also receive
oral aprepitant once daily on days 1-3. Treatment continues in absence of unacceptable
toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 30 days.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 35 patients will be accrued for this study.
