Schwartzberg, MD Professor of Medicine Chief, Division of Hematology & Oncology Release Date: October 2015 The University of Tennessee Health Science Center Expiration Date: October 31, 2016 Memphis, Tennessee Estimated time to complete activity: 1.25 hours Project ID: 11026 Abstract: Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is among the most feared and debilitating adverse events experienced by cancer patients. Left unaddressed, CINV symptoms not only decrease quality of life, but may also affect patients’ willingness to continue chemotherapy treatment. Detailed guidelines are available that outline best practices for prophylaxis of acute and delayed CINV. However, adherence to guideline recommendations continues to be suboptimal, and many patients still suffer unnecessarily from CINV. In addition, breakthrough/refractory CINV continues to present particular challenges. The development of effective CINV treatments with diverse mechanisms of action has expanded the options available for preventing symptoms. The US Food and Drug Administration has recently approved several new therapies for the management of CINV. NEPA is a fixed-dose combination of netupitant (300 mg) plus palonosetron (0.5 mg). In combination with dexamethasone, NEPA has demonstrated superior efficacy to palonosetron alone in patients receiving highly or moderately emetogenic chemotherapy. Rolapitant is a next- generation neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonist. Both palonosetron and rolapitant have proven particularly effective in controlling delayed CINV. Regimens that combine a serotonin 5-hydroxytryptamine–3 receptor antagonist, an NK1 receptor antagonist, and a corticosteroid now represent the standard of care for managing both acute and delayed CINV in patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy.

Thus use of aprepitant 80 mg in the delayed phase is only for those cases where aprepitant 125 mg is used on day 1. • A probable modification in pediatric guidelines based on the recent Cochrane meta-analysis is indicated.

In the central nervous system, tachykinins and neurokinins play a role in some autonomic reflexes and behaviors. Aprepitant is a selective human substance P/neurokinin 1 (NK1) antagonist with a high affinity for NK1 receptors and little, if any, attraction for corticosteroid, dopamine, or 5-HT3 receptors. Rolapitant (Varubi®), the newest substance P/NK1 antagonist, is FDA- approved to prevent delayed CINV with initial and repeat chemotherapy courses including, but not limited to, highly emetogenic chemotherapy in adults. Combination therapy including netupitant, a substance P/NK1 antagonist and palonosetron, a selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist (Akynzeo®), is now available to prevent acute and delayed CINV with initial and repeat chemotherapy courses including, but not limited to, highly emetogenic chemotherapy in adults.

Metoclopramide was derived from procainamide in the 1950s and one of the first drugs investigated in the prophylaxis of nausea and vomiting induced by chemotherapy. The breakthrough came in 1981 with the recognition that high-dose metoclopramide was effective and tolerable in the prevention of cisplatin-induced nausea and vomiting. A combination of high- dose metoclopramide and a corticosteroid was the standard antiemetic recommendation until the serotonin (5-HT)3-receptor antagonists, ondansetron, granisetron, tropisetron and dolasetron became available in the beginning of the 1990s. The development of these highly selective (5-HT)3-receptor antagonists with a superior effect and a preferable tolerability profile has limited the use of metoclopramide to be prescribed as a rescue antiemetic, when guideline recommended antiemetic therapy fails. ABBREVIATIONS The emetic risk of chemotherapy is divided in high emetic risk (risk of vomiting 0-24 hours after chemotherapy > 90%), CINV: Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting; moderate emetic risk (30-90%), low emetic risk (10-30%) and MCP: Metoclopramide; NK -Receptor Antagonist: Neurokinin 1 minimal emetic risk (< 10%).

Within the oncological field, overexpression of NK1R and this SP/NK1R system have been implicated in cancer cell progression and poor overall prognosis. This review focuses on providing an update on the current state of knowledge around the wide spectrum of NK1R ligands and applications of radioligands as radiopharmaceuticals. In this review, data concerning both the chemical and biological aspects of peptide and nonpeptide ligands as agonists or antagonists in classical and nuclear medicine, are presented and discussed. However, the research presented here is primarily focused on NK1R nonpeptide antagonistic ligands and the potential application of SP/NK1R system in targeted radionuclide tumour therapy. Keywords: neurokinin 1 receptor; Substance P; SP analogues; NK1R antagonists; targeted therapy; radioligands; tumour therapy; PET imaging 1. Introduction Neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R), also known as tachykinin receptor 1 (TACR1), belongs to the tachykinin receptor subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), also called seven-transmembrane domain receptors (Figure1)[ 1–3]. The human NK1 receptor structure [4] is available in Protein Data Bank (6E59).
