NCIt definition : A fluorinated pyrimidine monophosphate analogue of 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine-5'-phosphate
(FUDR-MP) with antineoplastic activity. As an antimetabolite, floxuridine inhibits
thymidylate synthase, resulting in disruption of DNA synthesis and cytotoxicity. This
agent is also metabolized to fluorouracil and other metabolites that can be incorporated
into RNA and inhibit the utilization of preformed uracil in RNA synthesis. (NCI04);
