✦ Synopsis


In a phase I study of BRL43694A, a 5HT3-receptor antagonist, a single dose of 40 micrograms/kg was given to 24 patients. All patients received cytostatic treatment expected to cause nausea and vomiting. During the first 24 h, 12 patients were completely protected from nausea and vomiting, 4 experienced nausea and 8 had moderate vomiting; mild headache occurred in 10 patients. No cardiovascular (including ECG) changes took place. Apart from headache, no neurological side effects occurred.
