The primary study hypotheses are that, without increasing doses of breakthrough medications or device intolerance, the Nometexâ„¢ device worn for 5-days beginning with the day of chemotherapy administration in women with ovarian or advanced endometrial or cervical cancer will, as an adjunct to standard-of-care anti-emetics, reduce vomiting episodes, and reduce the severity of nausea.
The secondary hypotheses are that the Nometexâ„¢ device reduces acute (Day 1) emetic episodes, day 1 and days 2-5 severity of nausea, and delayed (days 2-5) emetic episodes without increasing doses of breakthrough medications or device intolerance.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Activated Nometex Device | Active Comparator | Nometex Device that is activated so will be sending electrical pulses to the median nerve which will travel through afferent nerve fibers to the emetic centers of the brain. It is in these areas that the neurotransmitters modulate signals going to the stomach via the Vagus nerve. These electrical signals normalize the stomach rhythms, thereby alleviating nausea and vomiting. |
|
| Unactivated Nometex Device | Sham Comparator | The Nometex device will not be activated and therefore have no effect on the nausea/vomiting associated with chemotherapy. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Number of episodes of Vomiting | The primary outcome measure we are looking for is the number of vomiting episodes in patients with active wrist bands verse the sham wrist bands. | 1 month |
| Severity of Nausea | One of the primary outcomes we are investigating is the severity of nausea in patients with active wrist bands verse the sham wrist bands. | 1 month |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Acute Emetic Episodes | More specifically, the number of episodes of vomiting on Day 1. | 1 day |
| Severity of nausea | The severity of acute nausea on day 1 of treatment. |
