Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate Aprepitant for the Prevention of Post-Operative Nausea and Vomiting in Children (MK-0869-219) (NCT NCT01732458)

NCT ID: NCT01732458

Last Updated: 2018-09-25

Results Overview

AUC0-last was analyzed independently for participants in the 125 mg dose equivalent arm aged 12 to 17 years old due to age- and dose-dependent differences in aprepitant absorption and clearance. Because the opportunity to collect specimens for PK analyses in children is limited, a flexible sparse sampling scheme using ranges of collection times was to be utilized which would limit the burden to participants. Plasma for aprepitant AUC0-last assessment was obtained at 30-60 minutes prior to aprepitant administration, 2-4 hours post aprepitant administration, 5-7 hours post aprepitant administration, and 8-10 hours post aprepitant administration. Post-operative aprepitant plasma AUC0-last was evaluated using a noncompartmental analysis (NCA). The limit of quantitation (LOQ) value for this analysis was 10 ng/mL.

Participant Flow

Of 262 screened for inclusion, 229 were randomized to treatment. 1 participant was inadvertently randomized to a 2.5 mg aprepitant dose arm that was not evaluated in this study; therefore the participant was not included in any analyses. Of remaining 228 randomized participants, 8 did not receive treatment.

Population: Participants aged 12 to 17 years who received a single dose of 125 mg aprepitant prior to surgery with available plasma samples were analyzed.

AUC0-last was analyzed independently for participants in the 125 mg dose equivalent arm aged 12 to 17 years old due to age- and dose-dependent differences in aprepitant absorption and clearance. Because the opportunity to collect specimens for PK analyses in children is limited, a flexible sparse sampling scheme using ranges of collection times was to be utilized which would limit the burden to participants. Plasma for aprepitant AUC0-last assessment was obtained at 30-60 minutes prior to aprepitant administration, 2-4 hours post aprepitant administration, 5-7 hours post aprepitant administration, and 8-10 hours post aprepitant administration. Post-operative aprepitant plasma AUC0-last was evaluated using a noncompartmental analysis (NCA). The limit of quantitation (LOQ) value for this analysis was 10 ng/mL.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 30-60 minutes pre-administration, 2-4 hours post administration, 5-7 hours post administration, 8-10 hours post administration

Population: Participants aged birth to \<2 years who received a single dose of 125 mg aprepitant prior to surgery with available plasma samples were analyzed. One participant was excluded from the analysis due to aprepitant concentration in the pre-dose sample.

Cmax was analyzed independently for participants in the 125 mg dose equivalent arm aged birth to \<2 years old due to age- and dose-dependent differences in aprepitant absorption and clearance. Because the opportunity to collect specimens for PK analyses in children is limited, a flexible sparse sampling scheme using ranges of collection times was to be utilized which would limit the burden to participants. Plasma for aprepitant Cmax assessment was obtained at 30-60 minutes prior to aprepitant administration, 2-4 hours post aprepitant administration, 5-7 hours post aprepitant administration, and 8-10 hours post aprepitant administration. Post-operative plasma Cmax was evaluated using an NCA. The LOQ value for this analysis was 10 ng/mL.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 30-60 minutes pre-administration, 2-4 hours post administration, 5-7 hours post administration, 8-10 hours post administration

Population: Participants aged birth to \<2 years who received a single dose of 40 mg aprepitant prior to surgery with available plasma samples were analyzed.

Tmax was analyzed independently for participants in the 40 mg dose equivalent arm aged birth to \<2 years old due to age- and dose-dependent differences in aprepitant absorption and clearance. Because the opportunity to collect specimens for PK analyses in children is limited, a flexible sparse sampling scheme using ranges of collection times was to be utilized which would limit the burden to participants. Plasma for aprepitant Tmax assessment was obtained at 30-60 minutes prior to aprepitant administration, 2-4 hours post aprepitant administration, 5-7 hours post aprepitant administration, and 8-10 hours post aprepitant administration. Post-operative aprepitant plasma Tmax was evaluated using an NCA. The LOQ value for this analysis was 10 ng/mL.

Plasma for aprepitant AUC0-inf assessment was obtained at 30-60 minutes prior to aprepitant administration, 2-4 hours post aprepitant administration, 5-7 hours post aprepitant administration, and 8-10 hours post aprepitant administration. Because the opportunity to collect specimens for PK analyses in children is limited, a flexible sparse sampling scheme using ranges of collection times was to be utilized which would limit the burden to participants. AUC0-inf data were to be log transformed and analyzed via a linear mixed-effects model containing fixed effects for age for each dose level tested.

Timeframe: 30-60 minutes pre-administration, 2-4 hours post administration, 5-7 hours post administration, 8-10 hours post administration

Population: Due to the lack of samples beyond 8 hours after dose, the assessment of the terminal elimination phase of the PK profiles was limited and derivation of parameters dependent on lambda (e.g. CL/F) was not possible.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From pre-operative phase up to Follow-up (Day 1 to Day 15)

Population: All randomized participants who received at least one dose of study treatment were analyzed.

An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR's product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening of a pre-existing condition which is temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR's product, was also an AE. Changes resulting from normal growth and development which did not vary significantly in frequency or severity from expected levels were not to be considered adverse events. Vomiting and retching were not defined as AEs during the period of data collection (24 hours following the end of surgery) unless they met the definition of an SAE. The percentage of participants experiencing ≥1 AE was reported by dose group.
