  Purpose

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn the effect of combining aprepitant with CHOP or R-CHOP in patients with NHL that is either newly diagnosed or has come back. Researchers also want to see if aprepitant can help to prevent nausea and/or vomiting that may be caused by chemotherapy treatment with CHOP or R-CHOP, in these patients.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Pharmacokinetic (PK) sampling [to determine magnitude of aprepitant inhibition] [ Time Frame: Time points over 24 hours of cyclophosphamide infusion for both cycles (21 day cycle) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    PK blood sampling during & post chemotherapy infusion, baseline, at 30, 60, 75, 90 minutes, and 2 , 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours from start of cyclophosphamide infusion.
