About the Study

This study looks at how well omega-3 fatty acid ethyl esters (generic Lovaza) work in preventing colorectal cancer in patients with Lynch syndrome. Omega-3 fatty acids work by decreasing inflammation, or swelling, in the body, and suppressing certain chemicals in the body that are known to cause cancer. The addition of omega-3 fatty acids to patients' diets may help decrease colon inflammation or suppress cancer-causing chemicals in the body. NOTE: This study is no longer enrolling people.
