Palonosetron is a 5-HT3 antagonist used in the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). It is used for the control of delayed CINV-nausea and vomiting and there are tentative data to suggest that it may be more effective than granisetron.

Dexamethasone is a type of corticosteroid medication. It is used in the treatment of many conditions, including rheumatic problems, a number of skin diseases, severe allergies, asthma, chronic obstructive lung disease, croup, brain swelling, and along with antibiotics in tuberculosis.

In the current clinical trial, placebo oral tablet is provided as a substance for Aprepitant with no active therapeutic effect.
