The CAPP programme is an international project which aims to find out how to prevent bowel cancer with the help of families who are at risk because of their family history.
CAPP stands for Colorectal Adenoma/carcinoma Prevention Programme. There have been two projects started under this scheme: CAPP1 and CAPP2. CAPP1 is now closed to recruitment and the paper is being written; CAPP2 is open to new recruitment until late 2005.
