rofecoxib and Adenomatous Polyposis Coli

rofecoxib has been researched along with Adenomatous Polyposis Coli in 8 studies

Adenomatous Polyposis Coli: A polyposis syndrome due to an autosomal dominant mutation of the APC genes (GENES, APC) on CHROMOSOME 5. The syndrome is characterized by the development of hundreds of ADENOMATOUS POLYPS in the COLON and RECTUM of affected individuals by early adulthood.

" In conclusion, Long-term use of rofecoxib is well tolerated and effective in inhibiting polyp formation in polyposis patients."2.71Rofecoxib reduces polyp recurrence in familial polyposis. ( Alon-Baron, L; Arber, N; Brazowski, E; Bulvik, B; Hallak, A; Halpern, Z; Moshkowitz, M; Shamir, R, 2003)
"Celecoxib has shown benefit in regressing colorectal adenomas and appears to have some duodenal activity as well."1.35Chemoprevention with special reference to inherited colorectal cancer. ( Lynch, PM, 2008)
