Aprepitant (brand name: Emend (the brand name used in all English-speaking countries an antiemetic, is a substance P/neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonist which, in combination with other antiemetic agents, is indicated for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy. Aprepitant has little or no affinity for serotonin (5-HT3), dopamine, and corticosteroid receptors, the targets of existing therapies for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. Aprepitant has been shown to inhibit emesis induced by cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents, such as cisplatin, via central actions. Animal and human Positron Emission Tomography (PET) studies with aprepitant have shown that it crosses the blood brain barrier and occupies brain NK1 receptors.

Sample Use Guides
Prevention of Chemotherapy Induced Nausea and Vomiting:
125 mg orally 1 hour prior to chemotherapy treatment (Day 1) and 80 mg orally once daily in the morning on Days 2 and 3. The package insert for the co-administered 5-HT3 antagonist must be consulted prior to initiation of treatment with EMEND (aprepitant capsules).
Prevention of Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting:
The recommended oral dosage of EMEND is 40 mg within 3 hours prior to induction of anesthesia EMEND may be taken with or without food.
Route of Administration:

Curator's Comment:: Aprepitant suppressed HIV Bal infection of macrophages. Treatment with aprepitant (10(-6) M) inhibited infection of macrophages with the AZT- resistant viruses (A018, A012) by 0.7 log(10). Aprepitant also suppressed infection of macrophages with RT inhibitor-resistant virus (TC 49 and TC 60) by 0.5 log(10). Furthermore, aprepitant significantly enhanced the anti-HIV activity of antiretrovirals (AZT, Efavirenz, and Indinavir) in HIV Bal-infected macrophages, and aprepitant inhibited CCR5 expression on macrophages, ranging from 50.5 to 29.6%. Donor heterogeneity was observed in antiviral activity and CCR5 receptor expression.
Monocytes isolated from healthy donors were cultured for 7 days and then treated with or without aprepitant (10(-6) M) for 2 h, followed by HIV infection with drug-resistant strains for 2 h.
