Therefore, patients with FAP are a high-risk group for colorectal cancer (CRC). The only standard method of preventing CRC is total colectomy. Thus, alternative methods to prevent the development of CRC are desired by patients. Epidemiological and animal studies suggested that green tea and its extracts, such as (−)-epigallocatechin gallate, may have the potential to prevent cancer development. RESULTS: In the present study, we evaluated the suppressive effects of green tea extract (GTE) on suppress colorectal polyps in FAP and conducted a double-blind clinical trial. Eighty patients were randomly assigned to the GTE group (1.5 g/day for 2 years) and an equal number were assigned to the placebo group. The primary endpoint of colon polyp enlargement tended to be reduced in the GTE group compared with the placebo group, with a risk ratio of 0.43 (95% confidence interval 0.12–1.49; p = 0.16). CONCLUSIONS: Given that the risk ratio was less than 0.5 and few adverse events were observed, we believe that further research using GTE after calculating the necessary sample size is calculated on the based of this study, should be considered in a future large-scale clinical trial. </p>","PeriodicalId":12709,"journal":{"name":"Genes and Environment","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12958651/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147343839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We face potential risks from chemical, biological, and physical agents, including chemical substances, bacteria/viruses, and radioactive substances, particularly in pharmaceuticals, food, and indoor environments. Furthermore, natural disasters such as earthquakes and heavy rains not only cause physical damage, but can also lead to health hazards from chemical substances and radiation. This underscores the urgent need for robust systems that can effectively respond to health crises. This symposium aimed to improve public understanding of safety science in daily life, including in pharmaceuticals, food, and living environments. In this symposium, we invited five scientists who are expanding the frontiers of health sciences. We organized this public event to be open to everyone, not just members of the JEMS.
