This study investigated the antiemetic activity of two different acute antiemesis regimens in patients receiving cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Seventy-four patients were treated with high-dose metoclopramide, dexamethasone and lorazepam (MDL) and 71 patients received high-dose alizapride, dexamethasone and lorazepam (ADL). Complete protection from vomiting was 50% in MDL-treated patients as compared with 30% in the ADL arm (p = 0.04). Incidence of delayed emesis was assessed in the first 82 patients accrued for the 120 h postcisplatin, being 69 and 60% in MDL and ADL, respectively.

D002945 Cisplatin An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.
