  • Age ≥ 15 years at the time of consent.
  • Must be able to take oral medications (swallow pills)
  • ECOG Performance Status of 0-2 within 14 days prior to registration.
  • Histological or serological confirmation of germ cell tumor planning on receiving a standard 5 day cisplatin based chemotherapy regimen.
  • Patients must have had no nausea or vomiting for 24 hours and no antiemetic use for 72 hours prior to starting protocol therapy.
  • No active central nervous system (CNS) metastases. Patients with neurological symptoms must undergo a head CT scan or brain MRI to exclude brain metastasis. A subject with prior brain metastasis may be considered if they have completed their treatment for brain metastasis at least 4 weeks prior to study registration, have been off of corticosteroids for ≥ 2 weeks, and are asymptomatic.
  • Prior cancer treatments are not allowed. Patients have to be chemotherapy naïve.
  • Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥ 1 K/mm3
  • Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 10 g/dL
  • Platelets (Plt) ≥ 100 K/mm3
  • Creatinine ≤ 2 mg/dL
  • Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 × ULN
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN
  • No concurrent use of thioridazine or pimozide. No use of agents expected to induce the metabolism of rolapitant which include: Rifampin, Rifabutin, Phenytoin, Carbamazepine, and Barbiturates.
  • As determined by the enrolling physician or protocol designee, ability of the subject to understand and comply with study procedures for the entire length of the study
  • Patients and their partners must agree to use a highly effective method of birth control from the signing of the informed consent form until 90 days following the last dose of rolapitant.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
  • Treatment with any investigational drug within 30 days prior to registration.
  • Concurrent participation in a clinical trial which involves another investigational agent.

8 Days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Complete Response Rate: Acute Phase
Time Frame: 5 Days
Determine the CR rate in the acute phase (Days 1-5) defined as no emesis and no use of rescue medications in germ cell tumor patients treated with rolapitant plus Olanzapine in combination with palonosetron a 5HT3RA and dexamethasone on Cycle 1 Day 1 through Day 5
5 Days
