Background: Radiation-induced nausea and vomiting have mutiple clinical consequences: delay or refusal of irradiation (decreased antineoplastic efficacy of irradiation), altered quality of life, dehydration, malnutrition, interruption of treatment, decompensation of comorbidities and aspiration. These guidelines aim at defining good clinical practices for management of radiation-induced nausea and vomiting (RINV).

Methods: AFSOS, SFRO, SFH, SFNEP, SFCE and GFRP applied an expert consensus methodology to propose updated guidelines.

In this review article, it is proposed an update of French-speaking Association for oncologic supportive care (AFSOS) clinical practice of CINV guidelines. This update became necessary for several reasons: newly available anti-emetic drugs; new data published about individual risk factors of CINV; new antineoplastic agents available; changing in emetic risk levels for some molecules in the international guidelines.

This paper reviewed the 2002 guidelines established by the National Federation of Cancer Centres.

After a rapid reminder of the pharmacokinetics and metabolism properties of morphine, experts explained why the theory of opioid rotation (oxycodone, hydromorphone, fentanyl, methadone, tapentadol) using fixed equianalgesic ratios is not any more appropriate for a secure clinical practice.
