August 9, 2007 updated by: Radboud University Medical Center

Adenoma-Carcinoma Sequence in the Ileal Pouch Anal Anastomosis in Patients With Familial Adenomatous Polyposis: Studies on Luminal and Mucosal Risk Factors and Chemoprevention

The purpose of this study is to determine whether sulindac and VSL#3 - inulin, either combined or alone, are effective in treating or preventing adenoma development in the ileal anal pouch in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis.
