PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: AT BASELINE

Population: Recruited patients were those both with and without previous history of cancer. However, analyses were intended to be conducted irrespective of previous diagnosis status. i.e. Results are not compared between those with/ without previous history of colorectal cancer.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: AFTER 12 WEEK'S SUPPLEMENTATION

Population: Recruited patients were those both with and without previous history of cancer. However, analyses were intended to be conducted irrespective of previous diagnosis status. i.e. Results are not compared between those with/ without previous history of colorectal cancer.

RECTAL MUCOSA GENE EXPRESSION. We tested supplemented patients (i.e. response to supplementation) for enrichment of the candidate gene-set. Directional gene-set testing was performed in R, using the gene-setTest function in the 'limma' package. We performed participant-level gene-set enrichment testing with a 'response' to supplementation defined as enrichment (P\<0.001) of the candidate gene-set after supplementation.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: AT BASELINE

Population: Fifty subjects were administered 3200IU/day oral vitamin D3 and matched blood/mucosa resampled after 12 weeks'. Analyses were intended to be conducted irrespective of previous diagnosis status. i.e. Results are not compared between those with/ without previous history of colorectal cancer.
