| Core Tip |
Colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) develop in 25%-30% of patients with colorectal cancer and disease prevalence has increased with expansion in the at-risk older age group. The need for chemoprevention to inhibit carcinogenesis is an attractive option that has shown promise in patients at high risk of developing CRLM. Observational studies have shown statins are promising chemopreventive agents but no data exist specifically for CRLM. Statins represent a well-established drug group whose pharmacodynamic properties are familiar to clinicians and if they demonstrate effectiveness as chemoprevention for CRLM, repurposing statins for this use will be more cost- and time- effective compared to developing new agents. |
