Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of participants with at least 1 vomiting episode per week in the tradipitant group compared to the placebo group as measured by a daily symptom diary. | 1 week | A daily diary called the Nausea Vomiting Daily Diary (NV-DD) will be used. The NV-DD asks participants to rate their nausea symptoms on a Likert scale from 0-5 (0=none, 5= very severe), as well as record the duration of nausea and vomiting frequency. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Individual gastrointestinal symptoms | 1 week | Nausea and vomiting symptoms will be assessed using the NV-DD. The NV-DD asks participants to rate their nausea symptoms on a Likert scale from 0-5 (0=none, 5= very severe), as well as record the duration of nausea and vomiting frequency. |
| Safety and tolerability of tradipitant after administration of semaglutide as measured by spontaneous reporting of adverse events (AEs) | 2 weeks | Safety will be monitored using vital signs, blood chemistry, hematology, urology, and ECGs (QT, PR, QTcF, QTcB, QRS intervals and heart rate). |
