Abstract

The antiemetic efficacy of granisetron, ondansetron and tropisetron was evaluated in patients treated with cisplatin-Adriamycin (CDP/ADM) and ifosfamide (IFO) by continuous infusion (CI). In all, 90 patients with osteosarcoma were randomly assigned to receive granisetron (2 mg/m²), or ondansetron (5.3 mg/m²), or tropisetron (3.3 mg/m²) plus dexamethasone 8 mg/m². Chemotherapy consisted of CDP (120 mg/m², 48-h CI) followed by ADM (75 mg/m², 24-h CI) and then, in the second cycle, delivered 3 weeks later, IFO 15 g/m² (120-h CI). Complete protection (CP) from emesis was obtained on 59% of the 717 days of treatment, without significant differences among the three study drugs. A significantly higher rate of CP was obtained during chemotherapy with IFO than with CDP/ADM (69% vs 44%; P
