Electroacupuncture for the Prevention of Chemotherapy-induced Nausea and Vomiting in Patients With Breast Cancer

This study tests if electroacupuncture helps stop nausea and vomiting caused by strong chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. Electroacupuncture uses tiny electric pulses with needles, while antiemetic drugs are medicines that help stop nausea and vomiting. Both groups in the study will get the same medicines, including olanzapine and others, but only one group gets real electroacupuncture. The study checks if genetics (differences in DNA) affect how well electroacupuncture works. Patients will record any nausea or vomiting and medicine use. Blood samples help researchers learn more about genetics and treatment results.

• Participants must be 18-75 years old and have breast cancer.
• The study lasts for just one chemotherapy cycle, starting on Day 1.
• Patients must not have had chemotherapy recently and must attend several appointments for the study.

If you're interested, make sure you don't have any health issues or allergies listed in the exclusion criteria. Joining means you'll help researchers understand better ways to manage chemotherapy side effects!
