Brief Summary: RATIONALE Chemoprevention therapy is the use of drugs to try and prevent the development or recurrence of cancer It is not known whether eflornithine is effective in preventing cancer in patients with Barretts esophagus

PURPOSE Randomized double-blinded phase II trial to study the effectiveness of eflornithine in preventing cancer in patients with Barretts esophagus
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine whether oral eflornithine DFMO given in this study will cause significant reduction of the Ki67 labelling index in subjects with intestinal type Barretts esophagus and low grade dysplastic Barretts esophagus II Determine whether oral DFMO will alter the pathology and morphology of Barretts esophagus III Determine whether there is a difference in cellular DNA ploidy andor nuclear or nucleolar morphometry in patients with dysplastic Barretts esophagus and nondysplastic intestinal type Barretts esophagus compared to normal gastric fundic mucosa Determine whether DFMO modulates changes in these surrogate endpoint biomarkers towards normal mucosal values IV Determine whether cells demonstrating nuclear p53 protein accumulation are either lost or undergo a change in cellular distribution following treatment of patients with dysplastic Barretts mucosa with DFMO V Determine whether DFMO modulates changes in growth factor or oncogene expression in dysplastic Barretts esophagus and nondysplastic intestinal type Barretts esophagus VI Determine whether pathologic or biologic surrogate modulation occurring during 6 months of DFMO treatment reverts 6 months after treatment is discontinued

OUTLINE This is a randomized placebo controlled double blind prevention study Patients are initially stratified by dysplasia status at baseline metaplastic vs low grade dysplastic and treatment group placebo vs eflornithine Patients are randomized to receive daily doses of eflornithine DFMO or placebo for 26 weeks At 0 4 8 12 16 20 and 26 weeks there are toxicity and adherence evaluations and at weeks 26 and 52 patients have follow-up endoscopies

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of a 152 evaluable patients will be accrued in this study
