About this trial

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination regimen based on Rolapitant Palonosetron injection for preventing nausea and vomiting induced by concurrent chemoradiotherapy in lung cancer patients. It will also analyze the differences in preventive efficacy between two combination regimens, filling the gap in antiemetic data for radiotherapy combined with moderately to highly emetogenic chemotherapy. This research will provide evidence for optimizing antiemetic strategies in patients undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥18 years, no gender restrictions;

Histopathologically or cytologically confirmed lung cancer;

Planned to receive concurrent chemoradiotherapy for at least 6 weeks, with radiotherapy administered in conventional fractions (2.0-2.2 Gy/fraction, 5 fractions/week, total dose 60-66 Gy); chemotherapy regimen includes highly emetogenic agents (e.g., cisplatin ≥60 mg/m²) ;

ECOG Performance Status score: 0-1;

Disqualifiers

Patients with imaging-confirmed brain metastases accompanied by symptoms of increased intracranial pressure (e.g., headache, vomiting, papilledema) or objective evidence of elevated intracranial pressure.

Patients with a documented history of severe hypersensitivity to the active ingredient or excipients of the drug.

Known contraindications to NK-1 receptor antagonists, 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, dexamethasone, or olanzapine;

Vomiting symptoms (≥1 episode/day) or VAS score ≥30 mm within 7 days prior to first administration;
