Brief Summary: RATIONALE Antiemetic drugs such as aprepitant ondansetron and dexamethasone may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing a stem cell transplant

PURPOSE This randomized clinical trial is studying aprepitant ondansetron and dexamethasone to see how well they work compared to placebo ondansetron and dexamethasone in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients who are undergoing a stem cell transplant
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Compare the efficacy of standard antiemetic therapy comprising ondansetron and dexamethasone combined with either aprepitant or placebo in controlling nausea and vomiting as determined by the number of retchemesis-free days in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Secondary

Determine the safety of aprepitant in these patients
Compare nausea appetite taste changes nutritional intake and mucositis in patients treated with these regimens
Determine the pharmacokinetics of cyclophosphamide carboxyethylphosphoramide mustard hydroxycyclophylamide and aprepitant in these patients

OUTLINE This is a randomized placebo-controlled single-blind pilot study Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Beginning on the first day of conditioning chemotherapy patients receive oral aprepitant once daily and standard antiemetic therapy comprising oral or IV ondansetron and oral dexamethasone
Arm II Patients receive oral placebo once daily and standard antiemetic therapy as in arm I

In both arms treatment continues until day 4 after stem cell transplant in the absence of unacceptable toxicity

After completion of study therapy patients are followed until day 18

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 40 patients 20 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study
