Filter by:This is a 36 week dietary intervention pilot study to evaluate the effects of lyophilized black raspberries on rectal polyp burden and biomarkers in subjects with FAP. Subjects will undergo a colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy before study treatment to determine eligibility for the study. Eligible participants will undergo a sigmoidoscopy at 36 weeks after the initiation of study treatment. The size and number of rectal polyps will be documented on a code sheet and by photograph. The efficacy outcome will include the percentage reduction in the number of rectal polyps between baseline and 36 weeks.
This randomized phase II trial studies curcumin in treating patients with familial adenomatous polyposis. Curcumin may prevent colorectal cancer in patients with a history of rectal polyps or colorectal neoplasia.
The goal of this research study is to test the first version of a website that will offer information and support for adolescents and young adults with FAP. Researchers want to see if the website will be helpful, easy to understand, and easy to use for young patients with FAP.
Primary Objective: - To determine whether celecoxib downregulates GATA-6 expression to upregulate 15-LOX-1 expression and induce apoptosis in human rectal tumors, researchers will measure GATA-6 and 15-LOX-1 expression, 13-S-HODE levels, and apoptosis rates in normal and colorectal polyp epithelial tissues before and after 6 months of celecoxib treatment of patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP).
This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving celecoxib with or without eflornithine works in preventing colorectal cancer in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis. Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming. The use of celecoxib and eflornithine may keep cancer from forming in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis.
