The term cancerchemoprevention refers to the prevention or prolongation of carcinogenesis by intervention with drugs prior to the malignant (i.e., invasive) stage. The development of chemopreventive drugs is the major objective of the Chemoprevention Branch of the National Cancer Institute. Neoplast

Since the late 1970s, a comprehensive search for cancer chemopreventive agents has been established in our Institute. A series of new retinoids have been synthesized and screened on the basis of established methodologies of experimental chemoprevention in vitro as well as in vivo. Pharmacological st
This paper provides a rational molecular basis for studies intended to clanfy the interactions between cancer chemopreventive agents and apoptosis, one of the natural forms of cell death that overlaps molecular mechanisms with other forms such as programmed cell death and specialized forms of physio

We have studied aspirin as a potential chemopreventive for colorectal cancer, completing Phase I studies on aspirin pharmacology and potential biomarker assays (prostaglandins, PGE 2 and PGF 2β£ and cyclooxygenase modulation) in normal human subjects. These studies have determined the optimal dose of
