RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer. It is not yet known whether sulindac, aspirin, or ursodiol is more effective in preventing colorectal cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well sulindac works compared to aspirin or ursodiol in preventing colorectal cancer.

Official Title: | Phase II Study Of Colorectal ACF Screening, Regression And Prevention In High Risk Participants |
Study Start Date: | June 2003 |
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: This is a partially blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled study. Patients are stratified according to colorectal neoplasia (adenoma vs carcinoma). Patients are randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms.
Patients undergo a colonoscopy at baseline and at the end of treatment.
Patients are followed at 2 months after the end of treatment.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 172 patients (43 per treatment arm) with a history of colorectal cancer or adenomas will be accrued for this study. A total of 20 additional patients with no elevated risk of colorectal neoplasia will be accrued, but not randomized, for this study.
