Background Laboratory and epidemiologic data suggest that aspirinhas an antineoplastic effect in the large bowel.
Methods We performed a randomized, double-blind trial of aspirinas a chemopreventive agent against colorectal adenomas. We randomlyassigned 1121 patients with a recent history of histologicallydocumented adenomas to receive placebo (372 patients), 81 mgof aspirin (377 patients), or 325 mg of aspirin (372 patients)daily. According to the protocol, follow-up colonoscopy wasto be performed approximately three years after the qualifyingendoscopy. We compared the groups with respect to the risk ofone or more neoplasms (adenomas or colorectal cancer) at leastone year after randomization using generalized linear modelsto compute risk ratios and 95 percent confidence intervals.
Results Reported adherence to study medications and avoidanceof nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs were excellent. Follow-upcolonoscopy was performed at least one year after randomizationin 1084 patients (97 percent). The incidence of one or moreadenomas was 47 percent in the placebo group, 38 percent inthe group given 81 mg of aspirin per day, and 45 percent inthe group given 325 mg of aspirin per day (global P=0.04). Unadjustedrelative risks of any adenoma (as compared with the placebogroup) were 0.81 in the 81-mg group (95 percent confidence interval,0.69 to 0.96) and 0.96 in the 325-mg group (95 percent confidenceinterval, 0.81 to 1.13). For advanced neoplasms (adenomas measuringat least 1 cm in diameter or with tubulovillous or villous features,severe dysplasia, or invasive cancer), the respective relativerisks were 0.59 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.38 to 0.92)and 0.83 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.55 to 1.23).
Conclusions Low-dose aspirin has a moderate chemopreventiveeffect on adenomas in the large bowel.
