High-Dose PPI Plus Aspirin Reduced Esophageal Cancer Risk

The combined use of aspirin and a high-dose proton pump inhibitor (PPI) appears to offer protection against the development of esophageal cancer in high-risk individuals, according to new findings presented at the 2018 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting (abstract LBA4008).
