2026 ASCO Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium

Colton Jones, M.D., of The University of Texas San Antonio, discusses aspirin for colorectal cancer prevention after presenting research comparing GLP-1s with aspirin at the 2026 ASCO Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium earlier this month in San Francisco.

Post-hoc analysis shows potential of biomarkers for identifying pancreatic patients who respond to treatment.

People taking glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) drugs were 36% less likely to develop colorectal cancer than those taking aspirin, according to a real-world, head-to-head study.
