Summary

A randomised double blind dose non-inferiority trial of a daily dose of 600mg versus 300mg versus 100mg of enteric coated aspirin as a cancer preventive in carriers of a germline pathological mismatch repair gene defect, Lynch Syndrome. Project 3 in the Cancer Prevention Programme (CaPP3).

Conditions

  • Lynch Syndrome I (Site-specific Colonic Cancer)

Interventions

DRUG

Aspirin

Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) has a marketing approval for use in the EU and is widely available as an over the counter medicine. However it is not being used within its licensed indication and the aspirin (at any dose in this study) will be treated as an investigational medicinal product (IMP). Tablets will be provided as enteric-coated 100mg or 300mg tablets for oral use. All patients will receive at least some dose of aspirin but blinding to the actual dose will be achieved by the use of 'dummy' tablets using the same excipients as in the active formulation of the aspirin minus the active ingredient. The aspirin and dummy tablets should be stored at room temperature below 25⁰C in a dry place.
