Concomitant therapy supplements

For highly emetogenic chemotherapy, additional olanzapine is recommended in the acute (day 1) and delayed phases (days 2-4) at a dosing of 5-10 mg per day (NCCN, ESMO, ASCO, Onkopedia; as of 6/24). Dexamethasone for allergy prophylaxis is covered by dexamethasone for antiemesis on days 1 and 2.

Notes

in case of response 4-6 cycles, maximum 6
