  Purpose

This pilot clinical trial studies low-dose acetylsalicylic acid in treating patients with stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer. Studying samples of urine and blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes in biomarkers that occur during treatment with acetylsalicylic acid

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Inhibition of PGE2 biosynthesis [ Time Frame: 14 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Pearson chi-square test or Fisher's exact test will be used to assess the categorical variables. Hypotheses will be tested at the level of alpha = 0.05. Point estimates along with the corresponding p-values and 95% confidence intervals will be reported.

  • Urinary PGE-M levels [ Time Frame: 14 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Descriptive statistics, including means, standard deviations, and ranges will be provided. Before-after treatment differences of PGE-M level will be examined using paired t-test or Wilcoxon matched-pair test. Hypotheses will be tested at the level of alpha = 0.05. Point estimates along with the corresponding p-values and 95% confidence intervals will be reported.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether ASA (acetylsalicylic acid) 325 mg inhibits prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) biosynthesis in patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Cyclooxygenase (COX) catalytic activity will be determined by measuring the metabolite of PGE2, 11alpha-hydroxy-9,12-dioxo-2,3,4,5-tetranor-prostane-1,20 dioic acid (PGE-M) in urine pre- and post-ASA 325 mg as a surrogate of systemic PGE2 biosynthesis.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether COX-2 protein has a slow turnover in adenocarcinoma of the lung. COX turnover will be determined by measuring urinary PGE-M levels daily for 7 days after discontinuing ASA 325 mg. COX-2 and Prostaglandin expression will also be measured in tumor samples of patients taken at the time of surgery.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive acetylsalicylic acid orally (PO) for 7 days and urine is collected for 7 days post therapy.
