Summary

Advances in antiemetic drugs now prevent most acute chemotherapy-induced emesis. However, managing delayed and anticipatory nausea and vomiting remains a significant clinical challenge for patients undergoing chemotherapy.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pharmacology
  • Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Significant progress has been made in understanding the pathophysiology of emesis over the last 20 years.
  • Current antiemetic pharmacotherapies are highly effective in preventing acute chemotherapy-induced emesis (CIE).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current understanding of emesis pathophysiology.
  • To highlight the challenges in managing delayed and anticipatory forms of CIE.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of emesis pathophysiology.
  • Analysis of current antiemetic drug efficacy.
  • Discussion of clinical challenges in CIE management.

Main Results:

  • Most acute chemotherapy-induced emesis can be prevented with modern antiemetic drugs.

  • Delayed and anticipatory chemotherapy-induced emesis present persistent management difficulties.
  • Conclusions:

    • While acute CIE is largely manageable, effective strategies for delayed and anticipatory CIE are still needed.
    • Further research into the mechanisms and treatment of refractory CIE is warranted.
