Drug Therapy
Brief summary
Some adults are at a higher risk of feeling sick (nausea) or being sick (vomiting) after they have surgery. In this study, these adults will have planned surgery. The main aim of this study is to learn if TAK-951 stops these adults from getting nausea or vomiting after surgery. This will be compared with another medicine called ondansetron. Another aim is to check for side effects from the study medicines. Before surgery, the study doctor will check who can take part in this study. Those who can take part will be picked for either Treatment Group A or Treatment Group B by chance. * Treatment Group A: Just before surgery, participants will receive a placebo slowly through a vein (infusion). Just before the end of the surgery, they will receive TAK-951 as an injection under the skin. * Treatment Group B: Just before surgery, participants will receive ondansetron slowly through a vein (infusion). Just before the end of the surgery, they will receive a placebo as an injection under the skin. In this study, a placebo will look like TAK-951 but will not have any medicine in it. Participants will not know which study medicines they received, or in which order, nor will their study doctors or surgeons. This is to help make sure the results are more reliable. Participants will stay in the hospital for 24 hours after their surgery so that the study doctors can check for nausea and vomiting. The study doctors will also check for side effects from the study medicines. Participants will visit the hospital for a check-up 14 days later.
Detailed description
The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-951. TAK-951 is being tested for prophylaxis for postoperative nausea and vomiting in high-risk participants. The study will enroll a maximum of 160 patients, to allow a sample size of up to approximately 100 participants who have received both doses of Double-blind study drug/matching placebo. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either Treatment Group A or Treatment Group B which will remain undisclosed to the patient and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need): * Treatment Group A: Just before surgery, participants will receive a placebo slowly through a vein (infusion). Just before the end of the surgery, they will receive TAK-951 as an injection under the skin. * Treatment Group B: Just before surgery, participants will receive ondansetron slowly through a vein (infusion). Just before the end of the surgery, they will receive a placebo as an injection under the skin. In this study, a placebo will look like TAK-951 but will not have any medicine in it. This trial will be conducted in the United States. The overall time to participate in the study from the time of surgery to completion is approximately 14 days. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic and will be contacted by telephone after receiving their last dose of the drug for a follow-up assessment.

Planned use of postoperative opioid analgesics.
Exclusion criteria
1. Participants who are expected to remain intubated post-anesthesia. 2. Participants who experience nausea or vomiting within 24 hours before surgery or are diagnosed with gastroparesis, cyclic vomiting syndrome, or other condition associated with acute or chronic nausea and vomiting. 3.

Participants who have an allergy or contraindication to the recommended and available rescue therapy for the treatment of PONV. 6. Circumstance that, in the investigator's opinion, make participation in this clinical study inappropriate. 7. Participants found at the screening to have a QT interval with Fridericia correction method (QTcF) ≥450 msec or other factors that increase the risk of QT prolongation or arrhythmic events. Assessments showing bundle branch block and a prolonged QTcF should be discussed with the study monitor and the sponsor for potential inclusion. 8. Participants who have a direct family history of premature sudden death or channelopathy, personal history of Brugada syndrome (right bundle branch block pattern with ST elevation in leads V1-V3), long QT, short QT, arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT). 9.

Percentage of Participants With TAK-951 Antidrug Antibodies (ADA)
Percentage of participants with ADA results as: ADA negative, ADA positive were reported. Participants with ADA positive status are defined as those who had confirmed positive ADA status in baseline or at least 1 postbaseline assessments. Participants with ADA negative status are defined as those who did not have positive ADA response at baseline and in all postbaseline assessments.
Time frame: Within 6 hours post-surgery (Day 1)
Population: Immunogenicity Set included all participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug, had an ADA status assessment at baseline, and at least 1 postbaseline sample. Overall number analyzed is the number of participants with non-missing data for this outcome measure i.e., responders. The data for this outcome measure was collected and reported separately for the participants who received the unintended mis-dose of TAK-951 redacted mg.

Time From End of Surgery to First Emetic Event
Duration between end of wound closure to first emetic event i.e., vomiting or retching was reported. If a participant did not have an emetic event within 24 hours post-surgery, they were censored at 24 hours post-surgery. Cox proportional hazard model was used for analysis.
Time frame: Within 24 hours post-surgery (up to Day 2)
Population: FAS included all participants who were randomized to treatment and received both doses of double-blind study drug before and during surgery. Overall number analyzed are the number of participants with events.
