Epidemiological EMESIS-Registry (EMESIS)

December 23, 2014 updated by: iOMEDICO AG

Epidemiologic Registry for the Description of Antiemetic Strategies Under Real-life Conditions.

The purpose of this registry is to record information on reality of anti-emetic therapies of cancer-patients in Germany. The outcome of this study is the efficacy of anti-emetic therapies dependent on the rate "complete and major control" of nausea and emesis in moderately and highly emetogenic chemotherapies, consisting of platin-derivates (cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin), anthracyclines and/or cyclophosphamid.
