Translational Cancer Prevention: How do we approach Translational Research in Cancer Prevention? Colon Cancer:Anatomy of Colon Cancer Risk factors for Colon Carcinogenesis Colon Cancer Prevention: Polyp Prevention Trial (PPT) Mouse MetabolomicsCancer Stem CellsNutrition
Molecular Targeted Carcinogenesis Prevention: Benefits at any stage. Cancer prevention prolongs the natural lifetime due to reduced death from cancer
Cancer progression:1. Initiation can be a single mutagenic event.2. Promotion results from chronic exposure to tumor promoters e.r. TPA, EGF, UV radiation, TNFά or stress lead to benign tumors.3. Progression results when benign tumors progress to carcinoma.Receptors activation increases protein kinase activity, resulting in and increase in transcription factors. Translation factors lead to mis-regulation of target proteins.
TRANSLATING PREVENTIONHow do we approach Translational Research in Cancer Prevention? Behavior modification in the general population: Smoking cessation, Weight reduction Diet modification ExerciseDrugs in high risk groups: Tamoxifen: to prevent breast cancer DFMO + Sulindac: to prevent colon cancer Aspirin: breast and colon NSAIDS (Celecoxib) Adenoma Prevention Trail Diet supplementsVaccines in the general population: HVP vaccine: to prevent cervical cancer. HBV vaccine: to prevent liver cancerAntibiotics in high risk groups: Block H-pylori induce gastric and esophageal cancer

Tumor Promotion in the Colon Progression Initiation Promotion Activated Myofibroblast HGF Myofibroblast Myeloid cells IL-6 TNFa Normal organization of the intestinal crypt Accumulation of other genetic lesions, RAS and PTEN, Progression towards an invasive growing CRC Loss of wild-type APC or β-catenin mutation Transformation of healthy crypts towards an adenoma
Stages of colon carcinogenesis ~50% of US population have adenoma(s) by age 70 years
TRANSLATING PREVENTION. Basic research uses molecular processes, molecular target identification and targeted drug discovery. Preclinical research uses target validation and target discovery as well as response biomarkers and molecular targets as endpoints. Clinical research used drug-based and dietary interventions as well as response biomarfer and molecular target identification. Cancer Prevention
The Polyp Prevention Trial (PPT) Multicenter randomized controlled trial examining the effect of a low-fat (20% of total energy intake), high-fiber (18 g/1000 kcal), high-vegetable and -fruit (5-8 daily servings) dietary pattern on the recurrence of adenomatous polyps of the large bowel, Eligibility one or more adenomas removed within 6 months complete nonsurgical polyp removal complete colonic examination age 35 years or older; no history of colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, or large bowel resection; satisfactory completion of a food frequency questionnaire and 4-day food record
