Clinical Trial: Lyophilized Black Raspberries in Adults With Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP)

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional




Official Title: A Pilot Study To Investigate the Biological Modulation of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) by Lyophilized Black Raspberries

Brief Summary: This is a 36 week dietary intervention pilot study to evaluate the effects of lyophilized black raspberries on rectal polyp burden and biomarkers in subjects with FAP. Subjects will undergo a colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy before study treatment to determine eligibility for the study. Eligible participants will undergo a sigmoidoscopy at 36 weeks after the initiation of study treatment. The size and number of rectal polyps will be documented on a code sheet and by photograph. The efficacy outcome will include the percentage reduction in the number of rectal polyps between baseline and 36 weeks.
