Chemopreventive Effect of Combination of Celecoxib and Metformin in Patients With Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) leads to adenomas and eventual adenocarcinomas in colon and less frequently, duodenum. Chemopreventive strategies have been studied in FAP patients to delay the development of adenomas and cancers. The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor have shown the regression of colorectal and duodenal adenomas …

Evaluation of the Ileo-anal Pouch in FAP (ENDOPOL)
This international, multi-centre randomised controlled trial will compare dye-based chromoendoscopy with virtual chromoendoscopy, using NBI/BLI, for adenoma detection during routine surveillance pouchoscopy in adults with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). The estimated study duration is 2 years. Participants will undergo their usual scheduled pouchoscopy, performed …
