azauridine and Cancer of Liver

azauridine has been researched along with Cancer of Liver in 4 studies

Azauridine: A triazine nucleoside used as an antineoplastic antimetabolite. It interferes with pyrimidine biosynthesis thereby preventing formation of cellular nucleic acids. As the triacetate, it is also effective as an antipsoriatic.

"Sixteen unselected patients with non-resectable hepatocellular carcinoma were treated in a phase I study with 261 cycles of D-galactosamine and 6-azauridine prior to 5-fluorouridine."7.67First clinical experiences with a selective chemotherapy of hepatocellular carcinoma with 5-fluorouridine in combination with other antipyrimidines.

"The resistance of these hepatoma cells to low concentrations of D-galactosamine (less than 2 mM) was due to their active de novo pyrimidine synthesis which compensated the trapping of uridylate in the form of uridine diphosphate-amino sugars derived from D-galactosamine."1.26Uridine triphosphate deficiency, growth inhibition, and death in ascites hepatoma cells induced by a combination of pyrimidine biosynthesis inhibition with uridylate trapping. ( Keppler, DO, 1977)
