Conditions

Colon Cancer, Colorectal Cancer

Brief summary

To learn if lifestyle changes (such as diet and exercise) combined with daily aspirin and vitamin D can affect the likelihood of advanced colorectal cancer coming back (recurring)

Detailed description

Primary Objective: To estimate the ctDNA clearance rate of colorectal cancer participants with minimal residual disease after 3 months of optimal lifestyle interventions Secondary Objectives: * To evaluate the dynamics of ctDNA allele fractions after 3 months of optimal lifestyle interventions and every 3 months thereafter up to 12 months * To estimate the recurrence rate at 1 year in subjects who complete 3 months of optimal lifestyle interventions

Interventions

DRUGAspirin

by mouth every day for up to 90 days

DRUGVitamin D

by mouth every day for up to 90 days

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTDiet

Patients will receive counseling promoting a plant-based diet and avoidance of Western dietary patterns in a one on one session with a licensed dietitian prior to day 1.

OTHERPhysical Activity

The exercise goal is to increase recreational physical activity from baseline by at least 10 MET hours per week, which is equivalent to 150 minutes of moderate activity weekly

BEHAVIORALBehavioral Support Counseling Sessions

Patients will undergo a one-on-one counseling session prior to day 1
