The present investigation was conducted to examine the effects of granisetron alone and a combination of granisetron plus steroids on CDDP-based combination chemotherapy-induced emesis by multi-institutional randomized comparative trial using a central registration method. A total of 62 patients with urological cancer enrolled this study were randomized into two groups: granisetron (40 micrograms/kg) only group and granisetron (40 micrograms/kg) plus steroids (500 mg of methylprednisolone or 8 mg of dexamethasone) group. There were 31 patients eligible in the granisetron only group and 28 in the combination group. The same anti-emetic treatments were given in the recycling courses of chemotherapeutic regimens. Therefore, eligible patients of the second and the third cycle numbered 31 (17 in the granisetron only group, 14 in the combination group) and 21 (11 in the granisetron only group and 10 in the combination group). Significant inhibition of acute emesis in combination group was observed when compared with the granisetron only group in each cycle. Delayed emesis was also significantly inhibited in the combination group on Day 2 and 3 of the first cycle and on Day 2 of the second and third cycle. In addition, appetite loss was significantly reduced in the combination group on Day 2 and 3 of the first and second cycle. No adverse events were seen in either group. These results suggested that a combination of granisetron and steroids was useful for preventing CDDP-based combination chemotherapy-induced emesis.
