Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Aprepitant was approved in 2003. The drug works to lessen the amount of nausea and vomiting that cancer patients experience after treatment. Aprepitant has been well-studied in adults, but not in children. Data from adult studies has shown aprepitant to be safe. It has also been shown to be effective in lessening the amount of nausea and vomiting that adult patients experience. Because aprepitant has been shown to be safe and effective, the investigators have been using it in pediatric patients at this hospital as standard of care. The investigators will be surveying patients already receiving aprepitant for prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting to determine the amount of nausea and vomiting they experience. The investigators will also be surveying these patients to determine what their appetite is like and if they experience any disruptions in activities of daily living. The investigators are also going to be assessing any side effects these patients experience from receiving aprepitant.
