Phase I Clinical Trial of Oral Curcumin: Biomarkers of Systemic Activity and Compliance

Pharmacodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Study of Oral Curcuma Extract in Patients with Colorectal Cancer

TL;DR: The results suggest that Curcuma extract can be administered safely to patients at doses of up to 2.2 g daily, equivalent to 180 mg of curcumin, and that larger clinical trials ofcurcumin has low oral bioavailability in humans and may undergo intestinal metabolism.

Phase I dose escalation pharmacokinetic study in healthy volunteers of resveratrol, a potential cancer chemopreventive agent

TL;DR: The results presented here intimate that consumption of high-dose resveratrol might be insufficient to elicit systemic levels commensurate with cancer chemopreventive efficacy, however, the high systemic levels of resver atrol conjugate metabolites suggest that their cancer chemosynthetic properties warrant investigation.
