Advances in antitumor effects of NSAIDs

Yes / In recent years, the reports on using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
for cancer prevention and treatment have been on the rise. In 2017, the US Preventive Services
Working Group issued primary prevention guidelines on the use of NSAIDs, especially aspirin,
for cardiovascular disease and colorectal cancer, and formally established the role and status of
aspirin in cancer prevention. However, the mechanism of NSAIDs on preventing cancer is still
not clear. In this paper, the progress of the application of NSAIDs, especially aspirin, in the
prevention and treatment of tumors in recent years is summarized, and new ideas and directions
for the follow-up study are also discussed.
