The purpose of this study is to find out whether METFORMIN decreases protein markers in colorectal tissue. This is a phase IIA study of the pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of Metformin in decreasing colorectal mucosa in patients with a history of colorectal adenomas in the past 3 years and a BMI >= 30, with decimals rounded to the nearest whole integer. Metformin as a potential chemopreventive agent for inhibition of the relevant molecular pathways involved in human colorectal carcinogenesis.

Primary | Change in Activated S6serine235 (i.e., the Ratio of pS6serine235/S6serine235) | Tissue S6Ser235 immunostaining was analyzed by the study pathologist using Histo Score (HScore) analysis at baseline and post- metformin (Week 12). The Hscore is determined by estimation of the percentage of cells positively stained with mild, moderate, or strong staining intensity. The final score is determined by weighted estimate, as follows: Hscore = (# cell stained with High intensity/total # cells)x3 + (# cells stained with median intensity/total # cells)x2 + (# cells stained with low intensity/total # cells)x1. Mean and standard deviation of the change in the histo score (H score) of pS6serine235 from baseline were calcuated. | From baseline to 12 weeks | |
Secondary | Effects of Metformin Hydrochloride on Colorectal Mucosa Proliferation (Ki-67, Phosphorylated IGF-1 Receptor, Phosphorylated Insulin Receptor, Phosphorylated AKT, Phosphorylated mTOR, and Phosphorylated AMP Kinase) | Data not collected. | Up to 16 weeks | |
Secondary | Effects of Metformin Hydrochloride on Serum (Fasting and 2 Hour Postprandial Insulin and Glucose, Fasting IGF-1, IGFBP-1, IGFBP-3, Leptin, Adiponectin and Metformin Levels) | Data not collected. | Up to 16 weeks | |
Secondary | Safety and Tolerability of Metformin Hydrochloride Treatment | All participants will be evaluable for toxicity from the time of their first dose of metformin. Since toxicities in this study are measured as categorical data, primary analysis shall be by tests of binomial proportions (e.g., Mantel-Haenszel chi-squared statistic). This study will utilize the CTCAE (NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) Version 4.0 for toxicity and Serious Adverse Event reporting. | Up to 16 weeks |
