A Phase 3 Clinical Study Protocol: A Prospective, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Multicenter, Phase 3 Study of APF530 500 mg SC, Fosaprepitant 150 mg IV, and Dexamethasone vs. Ondansetron 0.15 mg/kg IV, Fosaprepitant 150 mg IV, and Dexamethasone for the Prevention of Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting in Patients Receiving Highly Emetogenic Chemotherapy

The primary study objective is to demonstrate the superiority of APF530 500 mg given
subcutaneously (SC) compared with ondansetron 0.15 mg/kg given intravenously (IV) (up to a
maximum of 16 mg) in the delayed-phase (> 24-120 hours) complete response (CR) rate (defined
as no emesis and no use of rescue medications) in subjects receiving highly emetogenic
chemotherapy (HEC) as defined by the 2011 ASCO CINV guidelines

of enrollment.

- Subjects must have histologically or cytologically confirmed malignant disease.

an ECG with QTc by Bazett's correction of > 450 msec in men and > 470 msec in women
on the screening ECG.

- Subject has PR > 240 msec, QRS > 110 msec, or a history of prolongation of QT
interval.
