fluorouracil and Cancer of Lip

fluorouracil has been researched along with Cancer of Lip in 20 studies

Fluorouracil: A pyrimidine analog that is an antineoplastic antimetabolite. It interferes with DNA synthesis by blocking the THYMIDYLATE SYNTHETASE conversion of deoxyuridylic acid to thymidylic acid.
5-fluorouracil : A nucleobase analogue that is uracil in which the hydrogen at position 5 is replaced by fluorine. It is an antineoplastic agent which acts as an antimetabolite - following conversion to the active deoxynucleotide, it inhibits DNA synthesis (by blocking the conversion of deoxyuridylic acid to thymidylic acid by the cellular enzyme thymidylate synthetase) and so slows tumour growth.

"15 patients with superficial basaliomas or premalignant epithelial neoplastic disorders (actinic keratosis, leukoplakia, Bowen's disease) were treated locally over three weeks with retinoic acid (RA) alone or in combination with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)."3.66[Vitamin A acid for the topical management of epithelial neoplasms. Combination with 5-fluorouracil]. ( Kurka, M; Orfanos, CE; Pullmann, H, 1978)
"122 patients with primary squamous cell carcinoma of the lip, the oral cavity and the oropharynx have been treated with 100 mg/m2 cisplatin bolus infusion and 120-h continuous infusion of 1000 mg/m2 5-fluorouracil following radical surgery; 99 patients completed all 3 cycles."2.71Postoperative chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil in cancer of the oral cavity and the oropharynx--long-term results. ( Bitter, K; Ghahremani, MT; Kovács, AF; Stefenelli, U, 2003)
"Many cases with metastatic hepatic cancer have a poor prognosis because of the appearance of extrahepatic lesions in spite of the fact that a partial response can be obtained by hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy."1.30[Appearance of extrahepatic lesions in the superior lip and orbit of a patient with liver metastases of gastric cancer following partial response by hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy]. ( Hasegawa, K; Ichikawa, T; Kawai, S; Kirihara, M; Kume, S; Maruo, H; Tominaga, S, 1998)
