Tegafur is an anticancer prodrug of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), typically used in combination with other agents such as uracil or gimeracil/oteracil (as UFT or S-1 formulations) for the oral treatment of various solid tumors, including gastrointestinal cancers. While tegafur is not widely used as monotherapy today, its combinational forms remain approved and in clinical use, primarily in Asia.
Pharmacokinetics
Mean (± SD) pharmacokinetic parameters in adult Japanese cancer patients given oral tegafur 400 mg.
