Chemoprevention of intestinal adenomas in the ApcMin mouse by piroxicam: kinetics, strain effects and resistance to chemosuppression

Previous cancer chemoprevention studies have demonstrated that NSAIDs can be effective in suppressing the development of intestinal tumors. To further explore this issue, we performed cross-over chemoprevention studies using the drug piroxicam in the ApcMin mouse to evaluate the kinetics of NSAID-mediated tumor regression, the effects of genetic background and the incidence of resistance to chemoprevention. Starting at the time of weaning, C57Bl/6J-ApcMin mice were fed either the control diet (AIN-93G) or AIN-93G plus 200 p.p.m. piroxicam. Tumor multiplicity was significantly reduced in ApcMin mice that were fed 200 p.p.m. piroxicam until 100 or 200 days of age (94.4 and 95.7% reduction in tumor number, respectively; P < 0.001 versus AIN-93G controls). When the administration of piroxicam was delayed until 100 days of age and the mice were killed at 200 days of age, tumor multiplicity was reduced by 96.2% (P < 0.001 versus controls). Alternatively, when the administration of piroxicam was suspended at 100 days of age and the mice were killed at 200 days of age, tumor multiplicity was reduced by 68.0% (P < 0.001 versus controls). Short-term drug treatment periods for ApcMin animals with established tumors revealed that the kinetics of piroxicam-induced tumor regression were rapid: >90% reduction in tumor multiplicity was observed after 1 week of treatment with 200 p.p.m. piroxicam. The distribution of residual tumors in piroxicam-treated mice suggests that tumors of the duodenum and colon were relatively resistant to chemosuppression. Treatment of interspecific hybrid ApcMin mice with 200 p.p.m. piroxicam revealed that there was a strain-related effect on chemosuppression, suggesting the existence of genetic elements which modulate NSAID chemosensitivity. Finally, whole-genome allelic loss studies showed that there were few unique chromosomal deletions in the NSAID-resistant tumors from F1 mice, implying that loss-of-function mutations secondary to Apc inactivation are not likely to account for the observed difference in chemoresistance.
