Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine whether treatment with naproxen at a once-daily 220 mg or 440-mg dose, administered for 6 months as compared to placebo reduces the concentration of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels in normal colorectal mucosa in subjects at risk for a mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer.
II. To determine the toxicity profile and tolerability of naproxen at two doses (220 mg or 440-mg once daily) as compared to placebo over 6 months of therapy in subjects at risk for a mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine naproxen concentrations in plasma of patients at risk for DNA mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer taking naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg or placebo after 6 months of therapy compared to baseline levels.
II. To determine naproxen concentrations in normal colorectal mucosa of patients at risk for DNA mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancers (CRC) taking naproxen once daily 220 mg, 440 mg or placebo after 6 months of therapy compared to baseline levels.
III. To determine whether urinary prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 1 metabolite (PGE-M) is significantly higher in patients at risk for DNA mismatch repair deficient CRC taking naproxen one daily, 220 mg, 440 mg or placebo after 6 months of therapy compared to baseline levels.
IV. To determine whether 6-months therapy with naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg or placebo leads to a reduction in the number of polyps observed in the rectosigmoid and rectal area.
V. To determine whether naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg or placebo will significantly change the micro-ribonucleic (RNA) profile of normal colorectal mucosa in patients at risk for DNA mismatch repair deficient CRC compared to the baseline.
VI. To determine whether naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg or placebo will significantly change the gene expression messenger RNA (mRNA) profile of normal colorectal mucosa in patients at risk for DNA mismatch repair deficient CRC compared to the baseline.
VII. To determine whether naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg or placebo will significantly change the mutational rate in patients at risk for DNA mismatch repair deficient CRC compared to placebo.
VIII. To determine future candidate biomarkers measured by genomic and transcriptomic platforms in tissue biopsies of normal colorectal mucosa in individuals at risk for mismatch repair deficient CRC pre- and post-treatment with naproxen.
IX. To determine whether Naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg or placebo will significantly change the microbiome profile of normal colorectal mucosa in patients at risk for DNA mismatch repair deficient CRC compared to the baseline.
X. To determine whether treatment with Naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg after 6 months of therapy as compared to placebo changed PGF2, PGD2, Thromboxane B2, 9a11b-PGF2a and 6-KetoPGF1a levels in colorectal mucosa of subjects at risk for a mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer.
XI. To determine whether treatment with Naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg after 6 months of therapy as compared to placebo changed the number of stem cells and induced differentiation into other cell lineages in colorectal mucosa of subjects at risk for mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer.
XII. To determine whether treatment with naproxen once daily, 220 mg, 440 mg after 6 months of therapy as compared to placebo changed the number of immune and mesenchymal cells recruited to the colorectal mucosa of subjects at risk for mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms.

Description
Inclusion Criteria:
Participants must have Lynch syndrome defined as meeting any of the following:
- "Mutation-positive Lynch syndrome": carriers or obligate carriers (by pedigree) of a pathogenic mutation in one of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes (i.e. mutL homolog 1 [MLH1], mutS homolog 2 [MSH2]/epithelial cell adhesion molecule [EPCAM], mutS homolog 6 [MSH6], or PMS2 postmeiotic segregation increased 2 [S. cerevisiae] [PMS2]) or
- "Mutation-negative Lynch syndrome": patients with a personal history of a non-sporadic MMR deficient premalignant lesion (i.e. polyp) or a non-sporadic MMR deficient malignant tumor (where "non-sporadic MMR deficient" is defined by: microsatellite-instability high by either immunohistochemistry or microsatellite instability [MSI] testing or both, but no evidence of MLH1 promoter methylation in cases with loss of both MLH1 and PMS2, and/or no evidence of v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B [BRAF] mutation in cases with loss of both MLH1 and PMS2) but germline MMR genetic testing showed either a variant of unknown significance or mutation negative result or had declined germline MMR genetic testing
- Participants must not have evidence of active/recurrent malignant disease for 6 months
- Participants must be at least 6 months from any prior cancer-directed treatment (such as surgical resection, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy or radiation)
- Participants must have endoscopically accessible distal colon and/or rectal mucosa (i.e. participants must have at least part of the descending/sigmoid colon and/or rectum intact)
- Participants must consent to one standard of care lower gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy (flexible sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy) with biopsies and one flexible sigmoidoscopy with biopsies that will be 6 months (+14 days) apart

- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase [SGPT]) =< 2.5 x institutional ULN
- The effects of naproxen on the developing human fetus at the recommended therapeutic dose are unknown; for this reason and because NSAIDs are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) for the duration of study participation; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant at the time of study entry or while participating in this study, she should inform her study physician immediately; women of childbearing potential must agree to baseline and pre-drug pregnancy tests

- Individuals who are status post total proctocolectomy (i.e. removal of all colon and rectum)
- Individuals with active gastroduodenal ulcer disease in the preceding 5 years
- Individuals with any history of transfusion-dependent gastrointestinal bleeding, gastrointestinal perforation or gastrointestinal obstruction; if any of these events had been due to a malignancy of the GI tract and the malignancy has since been removed, the patient is eligible
- Individuals with history of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary-artery bypass draft, invasive coronary revascularization in the preceding 5 years
Individuals taking the drugs listed below may not be randomized unless they are willing to stop the medications (and possibly change to alternative non-excluded medications to treat the same conditions) no less than 7 days prior to starting naproxen or placebo on this study; consultation with the participant's primary care provider may be obtained but is not required; the use of the following drugs or drug classes is prohibited during naproxen/placebo treatment:

- Individuals with uncontrolled renal insufficiency or renal failure
- History of allergic reactions attributed to naproxen
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, uncontrolled hypertension, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
- Pregnant, breast-feeding, or women of childbearing potential unwilling to use a reliable contraceptive method; pregnant women are excluded from this study because naproxen/NSAIDs is an agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects; because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with naproxen, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with naproxen

Change in PGE2 concentration levels in normal colorectal mucosa
Time Frame: Baseline to 6 months

Response will be defined as >= 30% reduction in PGE2 levels.
Pairwise comparisons by the two-sample t-test among the three groups (low-dose versus control, high-dose versus control, and high-dose versus low-dose) will be used.
The calculation adjusts for 3 multiple comparisons using the Bonferroni correction to achieve a two-sided 5% type I error.
The point estimate and the 95% exact confidence interval for the response rate will be calculated in each arm.
