Prophylactic Properties of Carrot Juice in Patients With High-Risk Colorectal Polyps
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Carrot juice from Yellowstone carrots cultivars: Consumption of 100 ml of carrot juice daily for 1 year
Placebo juice: Consumption of 100 ml of placebo juice daily for 1 year
Study summary
The goal of this prospective randomized double-blinded bi-national study is to test the prophylactic effect of polyacetylenes from carrots on the population of patients who had a resection of high-risk adenomas of the large bowel.
The main question it aims to answer is: Will carrot juice rich in polyacetylenes inhibit neoplastic transformation and growth in high-risk humans?
Participants will have to drink 100 ml of juice daily after the adenoma resection for 1 year and keep a simple diary/calendar.
Researchers will compare the group with ingestion of Falcarinol (FaOH) / Falcarindiol (FaDOH) rich carrot juice versus the group consuming placebo juice, to see if the polyacetylenes significantly reduces neoplastic transformation and growth in high-risk patients.
