NCT05402124

Brief Summary

The overall goal of this study is to develop a platform for both large-scale chemoprevention trials and real-world chemoprevention studies for colorectal cancer (CRC) prevention. The specific objectives of this proof of concept study are to:

  1. 1.Evaluate the feasibility of a real-world chemoprevention agent (CPA) intervention (3-months of daily low-dose acetylsalicylic (ASA)) in participants at increased risk for CRC (one or more high-risk adenomas removed during colonoscopy) based on participant uptake, adherence (days taking CPA), and adverse events;
  2. 2.Evaluate factors related to uptake and adherence of ASA using validated surveys and interviews.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Uptake of ASA

    Initiation of daily ASA 81mg (Percentage of participants who complete first 7 days of treatment).

    7 days

  • Adherence to ASA over 90 days

    Number of days taking ASA over a 90 day period. The time (number of days) on ASA for participants that discontinued use will be quantified.

    90 days

  • Adherence to at least 50 percent of total prescribed dose

    Percentage of participants who take at least 50 percent of total prescribed dose. Descriptive statistics will be utilized to characterize participants that adhered to ASA and participants who did not.

    90 days

  • Measurement of Adverse Events

    Measurement of Adverse Events reported through interviews with research study nurse and participant report over 90 days (active treatment phase).

    90 days

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Factors related to uptake and adherence to ASA

    From enrollment to 90 days

  • Factors related to uptake and adherence to ASA using measurement of health related quality of life

    At enrollment

  • Factors related to uptake and adherence to ASA using measurement of self efficacy

    At enrollment

  • Factors related to uptake and adherence to ASA

    At enrollment

  • Factors related to uptake, in-study adherence and post-study maintenance using measurement of adherence barriers

    At enrollment through end of treatment at 90 days

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Will not share

Individual participant data will not be shared with researchers other than the Principal and Co-investigators. The results of this study will be published in a scientific peer reviewed journal. Both the chemoprevention intervention results and the feasibility results for scaling a chemoprevention program to all individuals attending a screening center will be presented. The qualified investigator holds the primary responsibility for publication of study results.
