Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (≥18) undergoing elective surgery with general anesthesia lasting ≥2 hours, BMI 18–28, ASA I–II, with ≥3 PONV risk factors, and not pregnant or breastfeeding.

Probably not a fit

Patients without the identified risk factors or with specific medical exclusions may derive no benefit from the intervention.

What this trial studies

This Phase 2 interventional trial evaluates the safety and preliminary effectiveness of HRS5580 injection combined with palonosetron hydrochloride for preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). It also aims to identify a potentially optimal dose of HRS5580 when used with palonosetron. Eligible participants are adults (≥18) undergoing elective surgery with general anesthesia expected to last at least 2 hours and at least three risk factors for PONV. The study will involve multiple centers in Shanghai and Tianjin and requires informed consent and adherence to trial procedures. Primary endpoints likely include incidence of PONV within a defined postoperative window, with secondary assessments of safety and tolerability.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience reduced risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting and general improvement in postoperative comfort.

How similar studies have gone: Previous studies in similar antiemetic approaches have shown promise, though the combination of HRS5580 with palonosetron is relatively novel and its efficacy remains to be confirmed.
