简要总结
The study explores whether acupuncture as a supplement to conventional antiemetic medicine is superior in reducing the level of chemotherapy induced nausea compared to conventional anitemetic medicine alone.

The level of nausea and other cancer related symptoms will be assessed at baseline and 8 and 22 days after enrollment
