LY3537021

Clinical trials are investigating LY3537021 in adults with cancer who have nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. These studies look at how well LY3537021 works, along with standard anti-nausea treatments, and whether it is safe and effective in this setting.

Trial overview

The clinical trial with ID NCT07169851 is studying LY3537021 for nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy in adults with cancer.[1] The study is authorised and is planned as a Phase 2 interventional trial.[1] It plans to enroll 205 people.[1]

Who can join

This trial is for adults with cancer who are receiving chemotherapy and have nausea and vomiting related to that treatment.[1] The source data does not list more detailed entry rules, so final participation depends on the study team’s screening checks.[1]

What is being measured

The main outcome is complete response in the delayed phase of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.[1] In this study, complete response means no vomiting and no rescue medication.[1] Rescue medication is extra medicine used if symptoms are not fully controlled.[1]

Treatment groups in the study

The study compares LY3537021 plus other anti-nausea treatments with placebo plus the same background anti-nausea treatments.[1] The listed background medicines include ondansetron, aprepitant, palonosetron, granisetron, dexamethasone, and 0.9% sodium chloride.[1] A placebo is a look-alike treatment used for comparison that does not contain the study drug.[1]

Study design and phase

This is an interventional study, which means researchers give a treatment and then measure the results.[1] It is a Phase 2 trial, which usually looks at early signs of how well a treatment works and continues to check safety.[1] The trial is focused on patients with cancer who need help preventing or reducing chemotherapy-related nausea and vomiting.[1]

Why this trial matters for patients

Chemotherapy-related nausea and vomiting can make cancer treatment harder to tolerate, so studies like this try to find better ways to control symptoms.[1] The delayed phase is important because symptoms can continue after treatment ends, not just right away.[1] By measuring complete response, researchers can see whether LY3537021 helps patients avoid vomiting and avoid needing extra medicine.[1]

Glossary

  • Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV): Nausea and vomiting caused by cancer treatment with chemotherapy.
  • Complete response (CR): A study result meaning no vomiting and no rescue medicine was needed during the time being measured.
  • Delayed phase: The later time period after treatment, when nausea and vomiting can still happen.
  • Rescue medication: Extra medicine used if the study treatment does not fully control symptoms.
  • Placebo: A look-alike treatment used for comparison that does not contain the study drug.
  • Antiemetic: A medicine used to prevent or treat nausea and vomiting.
  • Interventional study: A clinical trial where researchers give a treatment and watch what happens.
  • Phase 2: An early trial phase that looks more closely at how well a treatment works and continues safety checks.
  • Enrollment: The number of people planned to join the study.
  • Authorised: The trial has been approved to begin.
