Brief summary

RATIONALE: Acupressure wristbands may prevent or reduce nausea and caused by chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether standard care is more effective with or without acupressure wristbands in controlling acute and delayed nausea. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well acupressure wristbands work with or without standard care in controlling nausea in young patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy.

Detailed description

OBJECTIVES: Primary * To compare the control of chemotherapy-induced nausea (CIN) in the acute phase provided by a 5-HT3 antagonist combined with acupressure versus placebo acupressure in children 4 to 18 years of age being treated with chemotherapy including cisplatin ≥ 50 mg/m2/dose, ifosfamide plus etoposide/doxorubicin, or cyclophosphamide plus an anthracycline. Secondary * To compare the control of CIN in the delayed phase provided by a 5-HT3 antagonist combined with acupressure versus placebo acupressure in children 4 to 18 years of age being treated with chemotherapy including cisplatin ≥ 50 mg/m2/dose, ifosfamide plus etoposide/doxorubicin, or cyclophosphamide plus an anthracycline. * To compare the control of chemotherapy-induced vomiting and retching (CIV) in the acute and delayed phases provided by a 5-HT3 antagonist combined with acupressure versus placebo acupressure in children 4 to 18 years of age being treated with chemotherapy including cisplatin ≥ 50 mg/m2/dose, ifosfamide plus etoposide/doxorubicin, or cyclophosphamide plus an anthracycline. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according chemotherapy regimen and anti-emetic Regimen 5-HT3 agonists (ondansetron or granisetron.) Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. * Arm I: Patients wear Sea-Band acupressure wristbands on each wrist beginning approximately 30 minutes prior to the first cisplatin-containing chemotherapy course and continually for 24 hours after the last chemotherapy dose (acute phase), and for a maximum of 7 days or until the next chemotherapy course starts (delayed phase). Patients are allowed to take bands off intermittently (up to 4 times a day, for no more than 15 minutes each time) to relieve pressure or to bathe. Patients also receive standard of care anti-emetic prophylaxis comprising granisetron, ondansetron, or dexamethasone during chemotherapy according to institutional or physician preference. * Arm II: Patients wear placebo wristbands on each wrist and receive standard of care anti-emetic prophylaxis during chemotherapy as patients in arm I. Patients, parents, or guardians are instructed to complete an impatient and an outpatient diaries on nausea severity and the time of each emetic episode. Patients, parents, or guardians also complete a questionnaire about acupressure at the end of the study.

Inclusion criteria

* 4 to 18 years of age, inclusive. The patient's cognitive ability must be considered by a parent or healthcare professional to be at least at a 4 year-old level. * Newly diagnosed (i.e., not relapsed) with any malignancy. * Patients are not required to be registered on a COG therapeutic trial. * The patient's current chemotherapy treatment plan must include at least 1 course of * cisplatin at ≥ 50 mg/m2/dose or * ifosfamide plus etoposide or doxorubicin or * cyclophosphamide plus an anthracycline. * Patients may have previously received other chemotherapy. * The patient's current treatment plan must include an anti-emetic regimen with either ondansetron or granisetron on a scheduled basis. Patients may also receive dexamethasone for antiemetic prophylaxis during the acute phase at the discretion of the treating physician. Patients ≥ 12 years old may also receive aprepitant in conjunction with dexamethasone for antiemetic prophylaxis at the discretion of the treating physician. * Patients needing anti-emetic treatment for breakthrough nausea/vomiting may also receive anti-emetic agents on an as needed (PRN) basis. * The patient (parent/guardian) must be English-speaking (i.e., able to read and speak in English) since the PeNAT has been validated only in English. * All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent (patient assent is also recommended when applicable according to each institution's policy).

Exclusion criteria

* Prior history of acupressure use. * Scheduled use of antiemetic agents other than ondansetron, granisetron, dexamethasone or aprepitant. Patients may receive other antiemetic agents PRN for breakthrough nausea/vomiting but not on a scheduled basis

MeasureTime frameDescription
Efficacy of Treatment on CIN During Acute Phase of ChemotherapyEach day of Chemotherapy course. Maximum of 7 daysCIN = Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea. The acute phase began with administration of the first chemotherapy dose of a chemotherapy block and continued until 24 hours after administration of the last chemotherapy dose of the block. Acute Phase - bands will be worn on each day of the chemotherapy course and for 24 hours after the last chemotherapy dose. Nausea severity during the acute phase of chemotherapy is defined as the maximum PeNAT (Pediatric Nausea Assessment Tool) score observed during each 24 hour period. The possible scores for the pediatric nausea assessment tool are no nausea, mild nausea, moderate nausea, severe nausea. Only patients who contributed at least 1 PeNAT score during the acute phase were included. The duration of the acute phase varied with chemotherapy regimen, according to study design.

A breakthrough antiemetic agent is defined as a medication that is administered or taken in order to relieve or treat (rather than prevent) nausea or vomiting. An antiemetic agent that is prescribed and/or administered on an as needed basis is considered to be a breakthrough antiemetic. Complete CIV Control during the acute and delayed phases is defined as no emetic episodes and no breakthrough anti-emetic agents administered during the phase of interest. Partial CIV Control is defined as 1 or 2 emetic episodes in any 24 ho

Outcome results

Primary

Efficacy of Treatment on CIN During Acute Phase of Chemotherapy

CIN = Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea. The acute phase began with administration of the first chemotherapy dose of a chemotherapy block and continued until 24 hours after administration of the last chemotherapy dose of the block. Acute Phase - bands will be worn on each day of the chemotherapy course and for 24 hours after the last chemotherapy dose. Nausea severity during the acute phase of chemotherapy is defined as the maximum PeNAT (Pediatric Nausea Assessment Tool) score observed during each 24 hour period. The possible scores for the pediatric nausea assessment tool are no nausea, mild nausea, moderate nausea, severe nausea. Only patients who contributed at least 1 PeNAT score during the acute phase were included. The duration of the acute phase varied with chemotherapy regimen, according to study design.

Time frame: Each day of Chemotherapy course. Maximum of 7 days

Population: The overall number of patients analyzed is 83 for Arm I and 82 for Arm II. Patients analyzed include the total number of patients that reported at least 1 PeNAT (Pediatric Nausea Assessment Tool) score on that day. The duration of the acute phase varied with chemotherapy regimen, according to study design. The number of patients receiving chemotherapy for longer than 3 days diminished each day, so days 4-7 were collapsed and considered a single day.
