Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/348088

Flurocitabine is an anti-metabolite that was developed by Hoffmann-La Roche for the treatment of cancer. The drug is metabolized to 2 biologically active substances, AFC (1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-5-fluorocytosine) and AFU (arabinofuranosyl-5-fluorouracil). Flurocitabine was tested against stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, small cell lung cancer and AML, however, the development was terminated in the early phases.

The maximum tolerated dose is 650 mg/m2 I.V. weekly (stomach cancer). In acute nonlymphocytic leukemia the dose is 800 mg/m2 (600mg/m2 in children) given every 12 hours until marrow hypocellularity is achieved. In Small-Cell Lung Cancer the dose is 15-20 mg/m2 IV given daily for 5 days every 3 weeks or 33-40 mg/m2 IV given weekly.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
