Powerful CINV prevention in the first 24 hours and up to 5 days following MEC
- Complete Response was the primary endpoint of this noninferiority trial1,2
- The most common types of cancer for patients in this trial were breast, lung, colon/rectal,
and bladder (≥5% of patients in any group)2
- The most common chemotherapy regimens for patients in this trial were cyclophosphamide,
doxorubicin, cisplatin, and methotrexate (≥10% of patients in any
group)2
Complete Response1,2†
(No emetic episode and no use of rescue medication)
* Double-blind, randomized, Phase III noninferiority trial
comparing single doses of ALOXI with ondansetron following MEC with a primary endpoint
of CR. p≤0.025 (adjusted post-hoc, 2-sided, Fisher’s exact test comparisons
of ALOXI with ondansetron; 97.5% confidence interval [CI]).
† ITT cohort
- A single IV dose of ALOXI provided significantly higher response
rates vs ondansetron in both the acute and delayed phases and during the overall
study period (p=0.0085, p<0.001, and p<0.001)1,2
- Clinical superiority over other 5-HT3 receptor antagonists
has not been adequately demonstrated in the acute phase1
Significantly longer time to treatment failure vs ondansetron
Kaplan-Meier plot of time to treatment failure2,3*
(First emetic episode or use of rescue medication)

* Double-blind, randomized Phase III noninferiority trial comparing single
doses of ALOXI with ondansetron following MEC with a primary endpoint of CR and
secondary endpoints that included time to treatment failure.
† ITT cohort.
- Time to treatment failure (secondary endpoint) was significantly
longer following treatment with ALOXI than ondansetron (p<0.001)2,3
- Median time to treatment failure was >120 hours in both treatment
groups
- Time to treatment failure in the first quartile was more than
twice as long for ALOXI than ondansetron (46.5 hours vs 19.5 hours)
- A separation in control rates appeared as early as Day 12,3
ALOXI lasts long against nausea
Nausea-free patients2,3†
* Double-blind, randomized, Phase III noninferiority trial comparing
single doses of ALOXI with ondansetron following MEC with a primary endpoint of
CR and secondary endpoints that included incidence of nausea.
† Patients reported nausea using a 4-point Likert scale: 0 = none,
1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe. Only patients reporting “0 = none” were considered
nausea-free.
‡ ITT cohort.
- Significantly more patients who received ALOXI were nausea-free
(secondary endpoint) on Days 2-4 following MEC than those who receive ondansetron2
- Patients ranked nausea as one of the most distressing side effects
of chemotherapy.4
