floxuridine and Cystadenocarcinoma, Serous

floxuridine has been researched along with Cystadenocarcinoma, Serous in 2 studies

Floxuridine: An antineoplastic antimetabolite that is metabolized to fluorouracil when administered by rapid injection; when administered by slow, continuous, intra-arterial infusion, it is converted to floxuridine monophosphate. It has been used to treat hepatic metastases of gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas and for palliation in malignant neoplasms of the liver and gastrointestinal tract.
floxuridine : A pyrimidine 2'-deoxyribonucleoside compound having 5-fluorouracil as the nucleobase; used to treat hepatic metastases of gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas and for palliation in malignant neoplasms of the liver and gastrointestinal tract.

Cystadenocarcinoma, Serous: A malignant cystic or semicystic neoplasm. It often occurs in the ovary and usually bilaterally. The external surface is usually covered with papillary excrescences. Microscopically, the papillary patterns are predominantly epithelial overgrowths with differentiated and undifferentiated papillary serous cystadenocarcinoma cells. Psammoma bodies may be present. The tumor generally adheres to surrounding structures and produces ascites. (From Hughes, Obstetric-Gynecologic Terminology, 1972, p185)

"Among 62 patients with ovarian cancer enrolled in IP platinum doublet studies in clinical trials (with etoposide (n = 18), with floxuridine (n = 30), and with topotecan (n = 14)), a deleterious BRCA mutation was eventually identified in 10 patients."1.40Ovarian cancer in BRCA mutation carriers: improved outcome after intraperitoneal (IP) cisplatin.
