Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24014883

Gimeracil is a component of an oral fixed combination known under the name Teysuno or S-1 (tegafur, gimeracil and oteracil potassium at a molar ratio of 1:0.4:1). The formulation was approved in Asia and Europe for the treatment of a rare condition of gastric cancer. Given in combination, gimeracil enhances the efficacy of tegafur by inhibiting dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase, an enzyme involved in metabolism of tegafur and its active metabolite 5-fluorouracil.

Sample Use Guides

The recommended dose of gimeracil is 10 mg/m2 (as a part of oral combination consisting of tegafur, gimeracil and oteracil potassium at a molar ratio of 1:0.4:1) twice a day, for 21 consecutive days followed by 7 days rest.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
TE-5 and TE-5R cells were plated in a 96-well plate and cultured for 24 h, and then they were treated with the indicated concentrations of 5-FU in the presence of gimeracil for 72 h at a molar ratio of 1:0.2 (5-FU:gimeracil). IC50 values with and without gimeracil in TE-5 cells were 4.9 and 4.8 uM, respectively, and those in TE-5R cells were 20.8 and 59.0 uM, respectively.
