Summary
This study tests whether adding olanzapine, a safe and inexpensive drug already used in children for other conditions, can better control vomiting caused by strong chemotherapy. About 200 children receiving cancer treatment or stem cell transplants will be randomly assigned to get olanzapine or a placebo alongside standard anti-nausea medicines. The goal is to see if more children can avoid vomiting and the need for extra rescue drugs.
