Coxib-inhibition of Duodenal Polyp Growth in FAP

July 3, 2011 updated by: Oslo University Hospital

Coxib-inhibition of Duodenal Polyp Growth in Familial Adenomatous Polyposis

Preliminary data indicate a protective effect on the development of duodenal polyps by coxib treatment. The hypothesis of the present study is that normal therapy doses of rofecoxib for 1 year would stop or reverse the development of premalignant adenomatous lesions in the duodenal mucosa of FAP patients.
