Highlight

This secondary analysis of the ASPREE randomized clinical trial identifies heterogeneous effects of low-dose aspirin (LDA) for cancer prevention among older adults. It pinpoints clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) as the strongest individual predictor of aspirin benefit. Personalized treatment prediction models enabled improved 5-year absolute cancer risk reduction versus a universal aspirin approach.
