NCT ID NCT06554184

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested a new drug called HR20013 to see if it works better than an existing drug (palonosetron) at preventing nausea and vomiting caused by moderate-risk chemotherapy. Over 700 cancer patients who had never had chemo before took part. The main goal was to see how many patients had no vomiting and didn't need extra medication in the delayed phase (24-120 hours after chemo).
