Abstract:
AIM:We conducted an evaluation of clinical data with meta analysis to investigate the preventive effect of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) on inflammatory bowel disease ( IBD)-associated colorectal cancer ( CRC) or dys-plasia (Dys) (IBD-CRC/Dys).METHODS: The information was retrieved from the main databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, etc.All full-text articles about the prevention of IBD-CRC/Dys by 5-ASA were in-cluded if they conformed to the standards.The odds ratio ( OR) and its 95% confidence interval ( CI) were calculated. According to the types of IBD and the treatment course, the subgroup analysis was conducted, respectively.RESULTS:Fifteen articles were selected, including 5 038 IBD patients.Pooled analysis showed a protective association between 5-ASA and IBD-CRC/Dys (OR=0.53, 95%CI:0.37~0.76).Among them, both ulcerative colitis patients (OR=0.45, 95%CI:0.27~0.77) and Crohn disease patients ( OR=0.39, 95% CI:0.16~0.97) with 5-ASA therapy were less likely to develop CRC/Dys compared with those without 5-ASA treatment.5-ASA treatment for 1~20 years shows a pre-ventive benefit (OR=0.43, 95%CI:0.25~0.74).However, a minimum 5-ASA exposure of 2~6 months did not show a preventive benefit (OR=0.59, 95%CI:0.26~1.34).CONCLUSION:5-ASA protects against CRC/Dys in IBD pa-tients.Additionally, the protective effect is treatment time dependent.Treatment course for 1~20 years shows an evident preventive benefit.
