Vitamin D and calcium affect several pathways involved in inflammation, tumor growth, and immune surveillance relevant to carcinogenesis. Also, epidemiologic evidence indicates that calcium and vitamin D may reduce risk for colorectal adenomas and cancer. To investigate the effects of calcium and vitamin D on biomarkers of inflammation in colorectal adenoma patients, we conducted a pilot, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2×2 factorial clinical trial (n=92), of 2 g/day calcium and/or 800 IU/day vitamin D3 supplementation vs. placebo over six months. Plasma concentrations of pro-inflammatory markers (CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and IL-8) and an anti-inflammatory marker (IL-10) were measured using enzyme-linked immunoassays. After six months of treatment, in the vitamin D3 supplementation group, CRP decreased 32% overall (p=0.11), 37% in men (p=0.05), and 41% among non-NSAID users (p=0.05) relative to placebo. In the vitamin D3 supplementation group, TNF-α decreased 13%, IL-6 32%, IL-1β 50%, and IL-8 15%; in the calcium supplementation group, IL-6 decreased 37%, IL-8 11%, and IL-1β 27%. Although these changes were not statistically significant, a combined inflammatory markers z-score decreased 77% (p=0.003) in the vitamin D3 treatment group overall, 83% (p=0.01) among men, and 48% among non-NSAID users (p=0.01). There was no evidence of synergy between vitamin D3 and calcium or effects on IL-10. These preliminary results are consistent with a pattern of reduction in tumor-promoting inflammation biomarkers with vitamin D3 or calcium supplementation alone, and support further investigation of vitamin D3 as a chemopreventive agent against inflammation and colorectal neoplasms.
