MCP evidence snapshot: 3 August 2026. Trial records, recruitment status and projected dates can change after the snapshot and should be rechecked before operational decisions.

Why NCT07716176 is a hot trial to watch

Nausea is being segmented by mechanism, treatment setting, geography and endpoint architecture. NCT07716176 is notable because it evaluates Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate in a Phase 3 design sponsored by The Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University. The main development question is whether the protocol can translate its rationale into a clinically interpretable and operationally credible readout.

Trial landscape snapshot

Protocol design and endpoint interpretation

This study aims to evaluate whether the preventive and suppressive effects of auricular point stimulation combined with dexamethasone on nausea and vomiting induced by the docetaxel plus cyclophosphamide regimen are non-inferior to the standard antiemetic regimen. Additionally, it will assess patients' appetite, gastrointestinal function, and other related indicators, and explore the significant role of integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine interventions in improving patients' quality of life during chemotherapy, thereby providing a clinical reference for optimizing the management of adverse reactions of this chemotherapy regimen. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether the preventive and suppressive effects of auricular point stimulation combined with dexamethasone on nausea and vomiting induced by the docetaxel plus cyclophosphamide regimen are non-inferior to the standard antiemetic regimen? In compar

Allocation is Randomized, masking is None (Open Label), and the intervention model is Parallel Assignment. Planned enrollment of [object Object] participants across China shapes statistical precision, execution risk and external validity. Interpretation should account for baseline risk, prior therapy, assessment schedule, missing-data handling and clinical relevance—not only statistical significance.

• Proportion of patients experiencing nausea as assessed by NIC-CTC AE4.0 (from the day of chemotherapy (Day 1) until the end of Day 5) — Participants will be asked to fill out a questionnaire to record whether nausea occurs. If nausea occurs, its grade according to the NIC-CTC AE4.0 should be recorded.

Readout outlook and evidence gap

The current protocol points to [object Object] as the best available readout proxy. Because this is an active or newly posted study, a trial-specific result citation is not included until a normalized clinical-trial-result record becomes available. That gap is itself operationally important: teams should monitor first result indexing, conference abstracts, protocol amendments and changes to the primary-completion date.

Asset and sponsor context

Drug & Asset MCP profile: Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate is indexed as Small molecule drug, with target GR, mechanism GR agonists, and global highest development status Approved.

Company & Deal Intelligence MCP profile: The Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University did not return an exact normalized organization match in this snapshot. The organization workflow adds identity, location, portfolio and partnering context where available.

The sponsor profile matters because scientific rationale alone does not determine development value. Manufacturing readiness, portfolio fit, geographic reach, partnering capacity and the ability to fund confirmatory development can determine whether a positive signal becomes a competitive asset.

White space around this program

• Sharper patient selection: prospective biomarker or phenotype definitions that identify who is most likely to benefit.
• Clinically interpretable endpoints: outcomes connecting activity with function, symptoms, survival or treatment burden.
• Comparator relevance: evidence against the most decision-relevant contemporary standard of care.
• Broader external validity: evidence across additional geographies, demographic groups and real-world settings.
• Operational differentiation: a development path that closes the readout gap without sacrificing safety or durability.

What to monitor next

Monitor recruitment, enrollment changes, protocol amendments, endpoint hierarchy, primary-completion timing, first result indexing, asset ownership and sponsor partnerships. A change in endpoint, population or ownership can alter the probability of success before a headline data release.

Bottom line

NCT07716176 provides a focused lens on Nausea development. Its value will be determined by whether Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate can convert the current Phase 3 design into evidence that is clinically meaningful, operationally credible and differentiated from competing programs.
