Study population: During the pilot study, serum samples were collected from a subgroup of patients in both the placebo and the aprepitant arms

Brief summary: RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients with cancer may help doctors learn more about nausea and vomiting caused by cancer treatment.

PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at blood samples from patients with cancer who were treated on a clinical trial to control nausea and vomiting during donor stem cell transplant.

Detailed description: OBJECTIVES:

Primary

* To compare the amount of substance P in serum samples from patients with cancer treated with busulfan/cyclophosphamide or cyclophosphamide/total body irradiation conditioning regimens prior to undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Secondary

* To assess the changes in substance P over time to see if there is an optimal time shown by this physiologic correlate to discontinue substance P blockade after the chemotherapy regimen is completed in these patients.

OUTLINE: Previously collected serum samples are analyzed by enzyme immunoassay for changes in substance P levels.

Patients' medical records are reviewed for demographic information, past history, and course of treatment.

Eligibility criteria: DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

* Previously collected serum samples from patients with cancer enrolled on the placebo arm of the pilot aprepitant study

  * Patients treated with busulfan/cyclophosphamide or cyclophosphamide/total body irradiation conditioning regimens prior to undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:

* Not specified

PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:

* See Disease Characteristics

Primary outcomes:
measure: Average, median, and mode for substance P levels at different times
