Résumé

Antineoplastic drug induced nausea and vomiting (ANDINV) (previously named: Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting [CINV]) are one of the most feared adverse effect for patients who begin treatment with anti-cancer treatments and their bad control have a negative impact in the management of these patients. In this review article, it is proposed an update of French-speaking Association for oncologic supportive care (AFSOS) clinical practice of CINV guidelines. This update became necessary for several reasons: newly available anti-emetic drugs; new data published about individual risk factors of CINV; new antineoplastic agents available; changing in emetic risk levels for some molecules in the international guidelines. To address these guidelines, the various clinical presentations of ANDINV and their intensity classification are discussed. Then, the different therapeutic solutions are presented: classes of conventional drug therapies, complementary therapies and advice to patients. Then, the implementation of primary prophylaxis are presented in four steps: (1) to evaluate the emetic risk level of antineoplastic agent; (2) to set the emetic risk level of antineoplastic protocols; (3) to set types of antiemetic drugs to implement; (4) "Outperform" prophylaxis in case of individual risk factors. Finally, implementation of secondary prophylaxis and rescue treatments are adressed.
