[Cancer prevention in familial cancer].
We established a protocol for and will conduct an interventional randomized controlled trial for the prevention of colorectal cancer. The subjects will be 100 patients with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer. Two regimens were formulated for the prevention of colorectal cancer. Regimen A is dietary guidance and ingestion of aged garlic extract (AGE) capsules, and regimen B is dietary guidance and non-function capsules. The main end point of the trial is number and size of colorectal adenomas after 2 years. Subject recruiting was started in March, 2002. The trial will be completed in September, 2005.
