Doxifluridine Tablets

Function and Efficacy

Pharmacological action: Deoxyfluridine tablets are a fluorouracil derivative, which is converted into fluorouracil (5-Fu) by highly active pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase in tumor tissue, exerting its selective anti-tumor effect. Experiments show that the therapeutic index of deoxyfluridine is higher than that of 5-Fu. Toxicological study: The acute toxicity test measured that the D50 values of mice for oral administration and intraperitoneal injection were 2.45 g/kg and 4.20 g/kg, respectively, and the 95% confidence limits were 2.175-2.770 g/kg and 4.014-4.401 g/kg, respectively. Subacute oral administration of this product for 13 weeks was 15.35.85.200 mg/kg/day. A decrease in thymus weight occurred above 85 mg/kg, and a suppression of weight gain, obstructive urinary protein, and a reduction in thymus and testis at 200 mg/kg. Chronic toxicity: Oral administration of this product for 26 weeks at 15, 35, 85, 200 mg/kg/day. Over 85 mg/kg causes chest hair loss and obstructive urine protein. Over 200 mg/kg causes weight gain inhibition, bleeding, decreased nucleocyte count, swelling, and thymus shrinkage. Reproductive toxicity: Oral administration of this product at 25.50 and 100 mg/kg/day before pregnancy and at the beginning of pregnancy. Over 50 mg/kg causes bone variation in the fetus. Over 50 mg/kg causes bone variation in the fetus during organ formation, delayed ossification, abnormal appearance, etc. Over 100 mg/kg causes low survival rate. Over 25.50 and 100 mg/kg/day causes abnormalities in newborns during lactation. Other reports: When dogs are given large amounts of deoxyfluridine (over 10 mg/kg) orally, abnormal lesions occur in the brain parenchyma and small hemorrhages occur in the cerebrospinal cord.
