floxuridine and Fibrosarcoma

floxuridine has been researched along with Fibrosarcoma in 5 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.

Fibrosarcoma: A sarcoma derived from deep fibrous tissue, characterized by bundles of immature proliferating fibroblasts with variable collagen formation, which tends to invade locally and metastasize by the bloodstream. (Stedman, 25th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Growth inhibition assays indicated that the IC50 values for methotrexate (MTX) and 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FdUrd) in HS-18, a liposarcoma cell line lacking retinoblastoma protein (pRB), and SaOS-2, an osteosarcoma cell line with a truncated and nonfunctional pRB, were 10- to 12-fold and 4- to 11-fold higher, respectively, than for the HT-1080 (fibrosarcoma) cell line, which has wild-type pRB."3.69Lack of functional retinoblastoma protein mediates increased resistance to antimetabolites in human sarcoma cell lines. ( Almasan, A; Banerjee, D; Bertino, JR; Fan, J; Hochhauser, D; Kelly, R; Li, W; Wahl, GM; Yin, Y; Zielinski, Z, 1995)
"Cimetidine (6 mg/kg) was used to decrease (76)Br-BFU elimination and increase its bioavailability."1.31Use of 5-[(76)Br]bromo-2'-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine as a ligand for tumour proliferation: validation in an animal tumour model. ( Bergström, M; Borbath, I; Grégoire, V; Långström, B; Laryea, D; Pauwels, S, 2002)
"There were seven malignant fibrous histiocytomas, four liposarcomas, two fibrosarcomas, one leiomyosarcoma, and one rhabdomyosarcoma; 73% were grade III."1.28Intraarterial chemotherapy with limb-sparing resection of large soft-tissue sarcomas of the extremities. ( Bonn, J; Gardiner, GA; Lackman, RD; Shapiro, MJ; Soulen, MC; Sullivan, KL; Weiss, AJ; Weissmann, JR, 1992)
