Thirty-seven patients with advanced malignancies, who received cis-platinum-based combination chemotherapy, were evaluated for the antiemetic efficacy of high-dose metoclopramide. Most of the patients suffered from ovarian carcinoma. The dose of metoclopramide was 7.5 or 10 mg/kg per course. A total of 69 courses were given to 37 patients and in 22% of the courses, nausea and vomiting were eliminated altogether. In an additional 48% of the courses, a partial protection from chemotherapy-induced emesis was evident. No serious side effects were observed. The administration of high-dose metoclopramide is recommended for prevention of cis-platinum chemotherapy-induced emesis.
