About this study

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. 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. Evaluate factors related to uptake and adherence of ASA using validated surveys and interviews.
Read the detailed description

Study Design and Duration:

This is a single arm (non-randomized), open-label prospective cohort pilot study.

Screening Phase: up to 2 weeks Treatment Phase: 90 days Follow-up Phase: 90 days

Screening Phase: up to 14 days. Participants will consent to being enrolled in the study and to the use of ASA for a 90 day period. Regardless of agreement to use ASA for the entire study period, all participants will complete 6 baseline questionnaires.

Active Treatment Phase: up to 90 days. Participants that agree to the use of ASAs will be instructed to take daily ASAs for 90 days. Participants will be contacted by telephone at 1, 2, and 3 months to determine adverse events, adherence, and discontinuation. At 3 months participants will fill out a chemoprevention questionnaire and the Adherence Barriers Questionnaire (ABQ).

Follow-up Phase: 90 days. During the follow-up phase, participants will not be provided with ASA through the study nor will a specific recommendation be made to continue ASA. All participants will be contacted via telephone at the end of this period to determine the prevalence of continued use of ASA on their own.

Total study commitment will be up to 194 days. After consent, participants complete a 90 day active treatment phase followed by a 90 day follow-up phase. The trial is expected to be completed within one year.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Uptake of ASA

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

    Measured: 7 days

  2. 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.

    Measured: 90 days

  3. 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.

    Measured: 90 days

  4. Measurement of Adverse Events

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

    Measured: 90 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Factors related to uptake and adherence to ASA

    Behavioral, sociodemographic and health characteristics, measured using Health \& Lifestyle Questionnaire and presented as percentages.

    Measured: From enrollment to 90 days

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

    Behavioral, sociodemographic and health characteristics, measured using Short-Form 36 Health Survey Questionnaire to measure quality of life and presented as percentages.

    Measured: At enrollment

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

    Behavioral, sociodemographic and health characteristics, measured using National Institutes of Health (NIH) Self-efficacy questionnaire and presented as percentages.

    Measured: At enrollment

  4. Factors related to uptake and adherence to ASA

    Measurement of beliefs, attitudes and values about medicines using Beliefs about Medicines questionnaire and expressed as percentages.

    Measured: At enrollment

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

    Measurement of Adherence barriers using Adherence Barriers Questionnaire (at baseline and 3m follow-up) and expressed as percentages.

    Measured: At enrollment through end of treatment at 90 days

  6. Factors related to uptake, in-study adherence and post-study maintenance using measurement of chemoprevention knowledge

    Measurement of knowledge about chemoprevention using Chemoprevention Questionnaires (baseline and 3m follow-up) and expressed as percentages.

    Measured: At enrollment through end of treatment at 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing acetylsalicylic acid delayed release tablets, 81mg in people with Colorectal Cancer and Colorectal Adenoma, run by University of Calgary at 1 site in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Robert Hilsden (403 592 5089, rhilsden@ucalgary.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Uptake of ASA (time frame: 7 days). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Jun 2022.
