E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |

|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
- To evaluate the effect of acetylsalicylic acid on indirect biomarkers of its action at the systemic level. - To investigate the role of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in platelet activation. - To investigate the degree of COX1/2 acetylation in normal and tumour tissue after exposure of patients to acetylsalicylic acid. |
- Evaluar el efecto del ácido acetilsalicílico sobre biomarcadores indirectos de su acción a nivel sistémico. - Investigar el papel de las citoquinas inflamatorias y antiinflamatorias en la activación de plaquetas. - Investigar el grado de acetilación de COX1 / 2 en el tejido normal y tumoral después de la exposición de los pacientes al ácido acetilsalicílico. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
-Assessment of the level of COX enzyme acetylation in platelets and healthy and tumour colonic tissue as biomarkers of clinical efficacy. -Safety variables include analytical determinations with haemogram, biochemistry (blood and urine), microbiology and pregnancy test prior to inclusion in the trial, in order to detect abnormalities that imply exclusion criteria for the individual. |
-Evaluación del nivel de acetilación de las enzimas COX en plaquetas y tejido colónico sano y tumoral, como biomarcadores de eficacia clínica. -Las variables de seguridad incluyen determinaciones analíticas con hemograma, bioquímica (sangre y orina), microbiología y test de embarazo antes de la inclusión en el ensayo, con el objeto de detectar anomalías que impliquen criterios de exclusión del individuo. |
