Phase II study of capecitabine and the oral mTOR inhibitor everolimus in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.

abstract：PURPOSE:5-Fluorouracil is the most commonly used drug for the treatment of colon cancer, yet clinical resistance to this drug is frequently observed in patients making this drug ineffective. Thus, identification of gene responsible for 5-FU resistance is of utmost importance. METHODS:Cellular cytotoxicity and expressi...

abstract：:Saturable elimination of 5-FU is exhibited in rats during constant infusions. Over the range of 3-480 mg/m2/h, total-body clearance of 5-FU decreases from 600 ml/min/m2 to less than 90 ml/min/m2. Previously published values for catabolism of 5-FU by rat hepatocytes can be used to simulate the plasma concentrations of ...
