Background and study aims
Metformin is a well-known and safe drug used to treat diabetes. Laboratory experiments have shown that, in mice with LFS, metformin can reduce the risk of them developing cancer. This is because metformin alters the metabolism of cells with mutated TP53 and makes them act more like normal cells. A small study was carried out in people with LFS which showed that metformin treatment caused the same kind of cellular changes that had been seen in the treated mice. However, this is not enough to conclude that metformin will reduce the risks of cancer in people with LFS. Further trials are needed with a larger participant population.

Who can participate?
This clinical trial is aimed at individuals 16 years or older with diagnosed Li Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS). LFS is a rare genetic condition that predisposes people to develop one or more cancers. It is caused by a mutation in a gene called TP53, either inherited from a parent or occurring as a new mutation at conception.TP53 is the most important anticancer gene in the body, its job is to stop cells becoming cancerous after they become damaged or stressed. For most people with cancer, the gene is only mutated in their cancer cells but, for people with LFS, it is mutated in all the cells in the body. This means there is a very high risk of developing cancer for people with LFS – a lifetime risk of 90% for women, and about 70% for men. Many people with LFS develop multiple cancers over their lifetimes. Cancers associated with LFS include rare bone and soft tissue sarcomas, childhood brain tumours and leukaemias, but also more common cancers such as breast cancer.

What does the study involve?
Half the people on the trial will take metformin every day for up to 5 years and the other half will not. This will be decided by a randomisation process whereby a computer will randomly allocate each participant to either the intervention arm which is yearly surveillance and metformin or, to the control arm which is yearly surveillance alone and no metformin . All participants will have yearly visits to a select Investigator hospital. At the investigator hospital they will have check-ups for cancer which will include blood tests and also a whole-body MRI scan. The participants will have 6 monthly check-up phone calls with a designated research nurse team for the 5-year trial period.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
Possible benefits:
Although there is little evidence that supports that metformin delays cancer in LFS, we do not know what the outcome will be and this is why we are conducting this trial. The information obtained from this trial will be used to support a future licencing decision for metformin as a cancer prevention agent for people with LFS.
All participants, even those who are not taking metformin, will have yearly MRI scans, physical examinations and blood tests to look for any signs of cancer.
The trial will help us understand how cancers form in LFS and how metformin affects this process. The trial will also help us understand the impact that having LFS has on quality of life.

Possible risks:
Metformin is widely used and is considered to be a safe drug with few side effects. We will be asking participants to provide more blood samples than they would normally do as some of these samples will be used for research purposes. Blood samples will be collected from a vein in the hand or arm of the participant and may cause bruising and/or fainting.

Scientific titleMetformin in Li Fraumeni Syndrome (MILI) Trial: A phase II randomised open-label cancer prevention trial of metformin in adults with Li Fraumeni Syndrome
Study acronymMILI
Study hypothesisBy altering the metabolism of the mutated cells, the anti-diabetic drug metformin will delay or inhibit cancer formation in people with a genetic diagnosis of Li Fraumeni Syndrome.
Ethics approval(s)

Approved 12/09/2023, West of Scotland REC 1 (West of Scotland Research Ethics Service, Ward 11, Dykebar Hospital, Grahamston Road, Paisley, PA2 7DE, United Kingdom; +44 (0)141 314 0212; WoSREC1@ggc.scot.nhs.uk), ref: 23/WS/0051

ConditionLi Fraumeni Syndrome
InterventionCurrent interventions, as of 08/04/2025:

This is a randomised clinical trial for participants with LFS as per the inclusion criteria below. People with LFS should undergone yearly MRI whole-body, breast and brain imaging but provision is erratic as not all hospitals are able to offer this service. The MILI trial will offer yearly whole-body (and brain) imaging at one of 5 investigator sites, as well as dermatological examination, haematological testing with blood samples also being collected for translational research in order to better understand the biology of LFS. Quality of Life questionnaires will assess the participants’ well-being during the trial.
Metformin:
In addition to annual surveillance, half the participants will be randomised to receive daily metformin. Research in LFS mouse models has shown that metformin can delay the emergence of cancer. It is hoped that from data pooled from this trial and also similar international trials will provide enough evidence for metformin to be prescribed as a cancer preventative for people with LFS as well as advancing research into this condition.
The trial has a dose-titration phase which will assess the safety and toxicity of metformin to ensure the side-effect profile is consistent with that of the diabetic population. All participants randomised to metformin will begin with a daily starting dose of 500mg which will be increased at 2-weekly intervals over a period of 9 weeks until they are taking a daily dose of 2000mg, if tolerated. They will remain on this dose for the duration of the trial. From month 6 onwards, participants in both arms will be asked the same questions via telemed calls about the known metformin side-effects in order to assess the adverse-event rate in each arm. Participants in the metformin arm will be asked questions about their adherence to taking metformin. The metformin tablets will be posted at intervals to the participants by the investigator (recruiting) hospital.

The LFS community have had input into the trial design. The group opted not to use a placebo but to have an open label design. Given that many participants would have to travel to a different hospital for imaging, the six-monthly assessments will conducted remotely via telemed calls by a central research nurse team based at the Oxford investigator site.

All participants will attend an initial visit for consent, screening and baseline at an investigator site. The following assessments will be carried out:
Screening Evaluations
• Written informed consent. If participant consent falls out of the allowed screening window for example due to a delay in imaging, the participant can be re-consented at the next opportunity and necessary screening assessments restarted.
• Evaluation against inclusion and exclusion criteria.
• Medical and surgical history to include cancer history, prior cancer therapies and procedures, and clinically significant disease,
• Concomitant diseases and medications
• Blood pressure
• Dermatological assessment (visual only). Any abnormalities identified at baseline should be recorded.
• Whole Body MRI to be conducted and reported within 28 days of consent (WB-MRIs conducted at the local supporting site will be accepted for baseline if they were done within 3 months prior to randomisation)
• Urine pregnancy test (women of childbearing potential, WOCBP) and who are sexually active.
• Fasting blood samples for baseline haematology, biochemistry, glucose, insulin, and IGF1.

Baseline evaluations
