STUDY OUTLINE AND OBJECTIVES OU OUTLI TLINE: NE: PHASE 3, RANDOMISED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED 2X2 FACTORIAL TRIAL PR PRIM IMARY OBJEC OBJECTIVE TIVE To determine whether the naturally-occurring omega -3 polyunsaturated fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) prevents colorectal adenomas, either alone or in combination with aspirin SEC SECON ONDARY OBJEC OBJECTIVE TIVE To assess the tolerability and safety of EPA in the free fatty acid form (EPA-FFA) alone, and in combination with aspirin, in elderly (60-75) years participants 1 o en endp dpoint oint – nu numbe mber of r of pa patients tients with ith a a po polyp(s) yp(s) 2 o o en endp dpoints oints – polyp number, ‘advanced’ lesions, location, AEs
PROTOCOL OUTLINE IN INCLUSI USION ON: 60-73 Yrs BCSP Patients Classified as High Risk at the first complete screening Colonoscopy within past 4 weeks nb high risk = 5 or more small adenomas or 3 or more adenomas with at least one being ≥10mm diameter
PROTOCOL OUTLINE EX EXCLUSI USION ON CRITERIA ITERIA: : main ones listed here (see protocol for extensive list) Need for more than one repeat colonoscopy or flexible sigmoidoscopy within a 3 month window Malignant change in an adenoma requiring colorectal cancer MDT management Regular (>3 doses/week) prescribed or OTC aspirin or prescribed or OTC non-aspirin NSAID use – not prepared to stop OTC use Aspirin intolerance, hypersensitivity including aspirin-sensitive asthma Active peptic ulcer disease within past 3 months or any previous peptic ulcer (not on PPI treatment) NB if taking PPI then they are eligible Fish or seafood allergy Current or planned regular(>3 doses/week) use of fish oil supplements - not prepared to stop OTC use
PROTOCOL OUTLINE CONT . EX EXCL CLUS USION ON CR CRITE TERIA RIA : : main ones listed here (see protocol for extensive list) Known clinical diagnosis or gene carrier of a hereditary CRC predisposition,(Familial Adenomatous Polyposis) or Hereditary Non Polyposis Colorectal Cancer Previous or newly diagnosed Inflammatory Bowel Disease or colorectal resection Known bleeding diathesis or concomitant warfarin therapy or any other anti- coagulant or anti-platelet therapy Severe liver impairment (anyone who is known to have or is likely to have a coagulopathy (INR>/=1.5) from liver impairment) Severe renal failure (creatinine clearance <10ml/min) Current Methotrexate use at a weekly dose of 15 mg or more Participating in another interventional clinical trial Failure to give Informed Consent

PRESCRIPTION
PHARMACY & DISPENSING Prescription generated from the web-based randomisation system and completed by the prescribing physician Note: EPA-FFA is a fish oil and allergy to fish oil is part of the exclusion criteria. It defines which container numbers should be dispensed for the participant. The container numbers specified will have been delivered to your hospital Give participant seAFOod bag to carry Trial Medication supplies participant will receive a total of 8 items (boxes/tubs) Inform participant to start the trial med next morning and always take with food Trial med to be stored at room temp at / below 25 deg C
