NCT00578396

Brief Summary

This study is designed to investigate the dietary influence of grapes in colon cancer prevention. A natural compound found in the skin of grapes, resveratrol, may protect against cancer by acting as an antioxidant (a chemical compound or substance that helps reduce damages due to oxygen). This compound is known to block colon cancer cell lines from growing in the laboratory. The purpose of this study is to determine the minimum amount of resveratrol-rich fresh red grapes needed to exhibit such signs of prevention.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Expression and cellular localization of beta-catenin in intestinal mucosa: localization of β-catenin. Expression of Wnt pathway target genes in intestinal mucosa: Wnt target gene expression

    2 yrs

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Define whether grape supplemented diet affects colonic mucosa cell proliferation. Ki67 staining method will be utilized on the pre- and post-resveratrol biopsy specimens.

    2 yrs

  • Define any side-effects associated with the resveratrol-rich dietary program. Laboratory testing is performed at specified timepoints in this protocol, along with history & physical, for the purposes of toxicity monitoring.

    2 yrs

  • Monitor resveratrol content of grapes throughout the course of the study. Grapes will be obtained from the same source as participants monthly throughout the study and the content of resveratrol will be measured.

    2 yrs
