4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Drug Indication

Indicated for the treatment of cancer usually in combination with other biochemically modulating drugs. Indicated in adults for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer when given in combination with [DB00515]. Indicated for the first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer with [DB03419] and calcium folinate.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Tegafur is an antineoplastic agent that belongs in the class of pyrimidine analogues. It interferes with the 2'-deoxythymidylate (DTMP) synthesis in the pyrimidine pathway, resulting in inhibition of DNA synthesis. In a phase III trial investigating the clinical efficacy of S-1 (tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil) in patients with advanced or recurrent gastric cancer, treatment resulted in a high response rate and was associated with a longer overall survival and longer progression-free survival rate when used in combination with cisplatin. In a meta analysis, triple combination therapy consisting of tegafur, gimeracil and oteracil showed longer survival times and well tolerance in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Tegafur and its active metabolites are potent myleosuppressive agents.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Antimetabolites, Antineoplastic

Antimetabolites that are useful in cancer chemotherapy. (See all compounds classified as Antimetabolites, Antineoplastic.)

5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Tegafur displays a dose-proportional pharmacokinetic properties. Tegafur is rapidly and well absorbed into the systemic circulation, reaching the peak plasma concentration within 1 to 2 hours of administration.


Route of Elimination

Following oral administration, about less 20% of total tegafur is excreted unchanged in the urine.


Volume of Distribution

The volume of distribution based on apparent volume of distribution and urinary excretion data of tegafur is 16 L/m^2.


Clearance

No pharmacokinetic data available.


5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Hepatic CYP2A6 is the predominant enzyme that mediates 5-hydroxylation of tegafur to generate 5'-hydroxytegafur. This metabolite is unstable and undergoes spontaneous degradation to form 5-FU, which is an active antineoplastic agent that exerts a pharmacological action on tumours. 5-FU is rapidly metabolised by the liver enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD).


Tegafur has known human metabolites that include 5-Fluorouracil.

S73 | METXBIODB | Metabolite Reaction Database from BioTransformer | DOI:10.5281/zenodo.4056560


5.6 Biological Half-Life

The elimination half life of tegafur is approximately 11 hours.


5.7 Mechanism of Action

The transformation of 2'-deoxyurindylate (dUMP) to 2'-deoxythymidylate (dTMP) is essential in driving the synthesis of DNA and purines in cells. Thymidylate synthase catalyzes the conversion of dUMP to dTMP, which is a precursor of thymidine triphosphate (TTP), one of the four deoxyribonucleotides required for DNA synthesis. After administration into the body, tegafur is converted into the active antineoplastic metabolite, fluorouracil (5-FU). In tumour cells, 5-FU undergoes phosphorylation to form the active anabolites, including 5-fluorodeoxyuridine monophosphate (FdUMP). FdUMP and reduced folate are bound to thymidylate synthase leading to formation of a ternary complex which inhibits DNA synthesis. In addition, 5-fluorouridine-triphosphate (FUTP) is incorporated into RNA causing disruption of RNA functions.
