Brief summary:
RATIONALE: Ondansetron may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well ondansetron works in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.

Detailed description:
OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether the incidence of nausea and vomiting related to administration of autologous hematopoetic stem cells cryopreserved in DMSO can be reduced by the use of a single dose of intravenous ondansetron prior to the stem cell infusion.

II. To determine the number of patients who experience nausea and vomiting.

OUTLINE: Patients receive ondansetron IV once 30-60 minutes before undergoing autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.

Arms:
arm 1: Patients receive ondansetron IV once 30-60 minutes before undergoing autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.

Interventions: intervention 1: ondansetron intervention 2: survey administration intervention 3: management of therapy complications
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: Given IV intervention 2: Correlative studies intervention 3: Ondansetron IV
