Prevention of Death From Adenocarcinoma of the Lung by Low Dose Aspirin


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether ASA (acetylsalicylic acid) 325 mg inhibits prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)
biosynthesis in patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Cyclooxygenase
(COX) catalytic activity will be determined by measuring the metabolite of PGE2,
11alpha-hydroxy-9,12-dioxo-2,3,4,5-tetranor-prostane-1,20 dioic acid (PGE-M) in urine pre-
and post-ASA 325 mg as a surrogate of systemic PGE2 biosynthesis.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether COX-2 protein has a slow turnover in adenocarcinoma of the lung. COX
turnover will be determined by measuring urinary PGE-M levels daily for 7 days after
discontinuing ASA 325 mg. COX-2 and Prostaglandin expression will also be measured in tumor
samples of patients taken at the time of surgery.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive acetylsalicylic acid orally (PO) for 7 days and urine is collected for 7
days post therapy.


Inclusion Criteria:



- All patients with early stage (stage I-III) non-small cell lung cancer,
adenocarcinoma histology

- Patients who are seen by members of the Thoracic Surgical oncology Group at
Vanderbilt Ingram Cancer Center for their initial surgical consultation

- Patients who have taken ASA or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the
last two weeks or have an allergy to ASA will not be eligible for enrollment

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Basic Science

Outcome Measure:

Inhibition of PGE2 biosynthesis

Outcome Description:

Pearson chi-square test or Fisher's exact test will be used to assess the categorical variables. Hypotheses will be tested at the level of alpha = 0.05. Point estimates along with the corresponding p-values and 95% confidence intervals will be reported.

Outcome Time Frame:

14 days

Safety Issue:

No
