Doxifluridine
Doxifluridine is an oral prodrug of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) designed for improved bioavailability. It is enzymatically converted to 5-FU, which inhibits DNA synthesis and RNA function, exerting antitumor activity. This compound is used in cancer research, including in vitro cytotoxicity assays and in vivo xenograft studies investigating fluoropyrimidine-based therapies.
