Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to find out if an investigational combination drug called Lovaza (made with fish oils)+Curcumin C3 Complex (made from a root called curcumin) can help reduce the size of lung nodules. Researchers also want to find out if the combination of Lovaza+Curcumin C3 Complex is safe and tolerable.
Interventions

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Mean Change in Bronchial Nodule Size | 6 months post treatment | Difference in the average change in bronchial nodule size from baseline to end of therapy at 6 months for each study arm. A lower size is taken to be the desired value for participants receiving study drug, assuming an increase in size for the placebo arm. |
| Rate of Nodules ≥4 mm | 6 months post treatment | Number of nodules ≥4 mm per study arm, post treatment. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Rate of Adherence | 6 months post treatment | Rate of participant adherence per study arm. Proof of adherence based on study team pill counts, participant diet logs and pill logs at end of study, vs. data collected at midpoint. |
| Rate of Treatment Related Adverse Events (AEs) | Up to 30 days post treatment, approximately 7 months | Safety of the combined agents (Curcumin C3 complex® + Lovaza®) at 2 dose arms vs. placebo as indicated by incidence of related adverse events and toxicities, monitored using Common Toxicity Criteria version 5.0. |
