Colorectal polyp prevention by daily aspirin use is abrogated among active smokers

Abstract: We report for the first time, in a typical risk US clinical population, a lack of protective association of aspirin for polyps among active smokers. Future prospective studies are recommended to confirm this mitigating effect in order to improve the precision of the growing evidence base about the chemopreventive benefit of aspirin in colorectal cancer.

“…Modulation by NSAIDs of DNA adduct formation from passive tobacco smoke has been observed in mice [ 60 ] and an interaction between aspirin and smoking has also been observed in the colon, where reduction of incidence of polyps by daily aspirin use has been shown to be abrogated in active smokers [ 61 ]. While smoking rates in the general United States population have decreased over the past 35 years [ 62 ], the incidence of EA has increased [ 63 , 64 ], suggesting that while tobacco exposure is a risk factor for EA [ 59 , 65 ], the effect of smoking is only one factor in the complex environment to which the BE tissue is exposed.…”

“…Twelve articles summarising results from one RCT 25 and 11 observational studies 29,30,40,42,44,45,47,50,54,61,62 investigated the risk of SP for individuals taking NSAIDs and/or aspirin, two of which also reported SSA/P risk 29,30 , as outlined in Supplementary Table 1(e). The RCT (which was not included in meta-analyses due to the different study design) demonstrated a significant protective association for right-sided, but not left-sided, SP when taking 81mg or 325mg of aspirin compared with placebo 25 .…”

“…There was low heterogeneity and little evidence of publication bias for NSAID (P = 0.43) or aspirin analyses (P = 0.47). One study also reported a null association between SP risk and statin use 50 .…”

“…This incomplete mediation suggests that additional studies focused on identifying additional markers of synchronous CRC risk are warranted; especially those that may influence serrated carcinogenesis. However, the link between smoking and traditional dysplastic adenoma incidence established by other studies suggests that these lesions may also contribute to multifocal tumor development (42, 44, 45). Thus, examination of the genetic markers associated with traditional carcinogenesis (e.g.…”
