Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Aprepitant 250 mg was not evaluated because the assessment of the positron emission tomography (PET) scan data (neurokinin 1 (NK1)-receptor occupancy values at 24 & 48 hours postdose) from fosaprepitant 150 mg & aprepitant 165 mg revealed that the protocol’s hypothesis was met; therefore, it was not necessary to evaluate aprepitant 250 mg.

Reporting Groups
  Description
Fosaprepitant 150 mg A single intravenous infusion of 150 mg fosaprepitant dimeglumine over 20 minutes, 15 minutes after consumption of a standard light breakfast meal on Day 1.
Aprepitant 165 mg A single oral 165 mg aprepitant capsule 15 minutes after consumption of a standard light breakfast meal on Day 1.
