ABSTRACT
AIM:
We compare neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist (NK-1RA)-based triple regimen and conventional duplex regimen for antiemetic efficacy for patients with moderately emetogenic chemotherapy (MEC). Patients &methods:
Pooled risk ratios (RRs) were used to evaluate the complete response and no significant nausea. The results were separately analyzed for pure MEC regimens, carboplatin-based regimens and oxaliplatin-based regimens.RESULTS:
Ten trials focused on MEC involving 2928 cancer patients using NK-1RA triple regimens or conventional duplex regimen were included. NK-1RA-based triple regimen showed significant better complete responses in overall (RR 1.14; 95% CI 1.05-1.24), acute (RR 1.02; 95% CI 1.00-1.04) and delayed (RR 1.13; 95% CI 1.04-1.23) phase compared with duplex regimen in patients with MEC. Similar results were found for no significant nausea. Subgroup analyses showed that triple regimen showed superior antiemetic efficacy significantly in patients with carboplatin-based chemotherapy, instead of oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy.CONCLUSION:
NK-1RA is recommended to use in carboplatin-based chemotherapy, not oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy.Palabras clave
