Tegafur (INNBANUSAN) is a chemotherapeutic prodrug of 5-flourouracil (5-FU) used in the treatment of cancers. It is a component of the combination drug tegafur/uracil. When metabolised, it becomes 5-FU.[1]

Medical uses

As a prodrug to 5-FU it is used in the treatment of the following cancers:[2]
It is often given in combination with drugs that alter its bioavailability and toxicity such as gimeracil, oteracil or uracil.[2] These agents achieve this by inhibiting the enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (uracil/gimeracil) or orotate phosphoribosyltransferase (oteracil).[2]

Adverse effects

The major side effects of tegafur are similar to fluorouracil and include myelosuppression, central neurotoxicity and gastrointestinal toxicity (especially diarrhoea).[2] Gastrointestinal toxicity is the dose-limiting side effect of tegafur.[2] Central neurotoxicity is more common with tegafur than with fluorouracil.[2]

Pharmacogenetics

The dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) enzyme is responsible for the detoxifying metabolism of fluoropyrimidines, a class of drugs that includes 5-fluorouracilcapecitabine, and tegafur.[4] Genetic variations within the DPD gene (DPYD) can lead to reduced or absent DPD activity, and individuals who are heterozygous or homozygous for these variations may have partial or complete DPD deficiency; an estimated 0.2% of individuals have complete DPD deficiency.[4][5] Those with partial or complete DPD deficiency have a significantly increased risk of severe or even fatal drug toxicities when treated with fluoropyrimidines; examples of toxicities include myelosuppressionneurotoxicity and hand-foot syndrome.[4][5]

Mechanism of action

It is a prodrug to 5-FU, which is a thymidylate synthase inhibitor.[2]

Pharmacokinetics

It is metabolised to 5-FU by CYP2A6.[6][7]

tegafur is a derivative of 5-fluorouracil, and in 1967, Hiller of the former Soviet Union synthesized tegafur (SA Hiller, RA Zhuk, M. Yu. Lidak, et al. Substituted Uracil [ P, British Patent, 1168391 (1969)). In 1974, it was listed in Japan. China was successfully developed by Shandong Jinan Pharmaceutical Factory in 1979. Its present origin is Shanghai and Shandong provinces and cities. The anti-cancer effect of tegafur is similar to that of 5-fluorouracil and is activated in vivo by 5-fluorouracil through liver activation. Unlike 5-fluorouracil, tegafur is fat-soluble, has good oral absorption, maintains high concentrations in the blood for a long time and easily passes through the blood-brain barrier. Clinical and animal experiments show that tegafur on gastrointestinal cancer, breast cancer is better, the role of rectal cancer than 5-fluorouracil good, less toxic than 5-fluorouracil. Teflon has a chemotherapy index of 2-fold for 5-fluorouracil and only 1 / 4-1 / 7 of toxicity. So the addition of fluoride is widely used in cancer patients with chemotherapy.
[0003] The first synthesis of tegafur is Hiller ([SA Hiller, RA Zhuk, Îœ. Yu. Lidak, et al. Substituted Uracil [P], British Patent, 1168391 (1969)]. 5-fluorouracil or 2,4-bis (trimethylsilyl) -5-fluorouracil (Me3Si-Fu, 1) and 2-chlorotetrahydrofuran (Thf-Cl), and it is reported that this synthesis must be carried out at low temperature (- 20 to -40 ° C), because Thf-Cl is unstable, and excess Thf-Cl results in a decomposition reaction, thereby reducing the yield of Thf-Fu.
[0004] Earl and Townsend also prepared 1_ (tetrahydro-2-furyl) uracil using Thf-Cl and 2,4-bis (trimethylsilyl) uracil, and then using trifluoromethyl fluorite to product Fluorination. Mitsugi Yasurnoto reacts with the Friedel-Crafts catalyst in the presence of 2,4-bis (trimethylsilyl) -5-fluorouracil (Me3Si-U, 1) 2-acetoxytetrahydrofuran (Thf-OAc, 2) (Kazu Kigasawa et al., 2-tert-Butoxy), & lt; RTI ID = 0.0 & gt;, & lt; / RTI & gt; (K. Kigasawa, M. Hiiragi, K. ffakisaka, et al. J. Heterocyclic Chem. 1977, 14: 473-475) was reacted with 5-Fu at 155-160 ° C. Reported in the literature for the fluoride production route there are the following questions: 1, high energy consumption. In the traditional synthesis method, in order to obtain the product, the second step of the reaction needs to continue heating at 160 ° C for 5-6 hours, high energy consumption; 2, difficult to produce, low yield: 5-fluorouracil as a solid powder The reaction needs to be carried out at a high temperature (160 ° C), which requires the use of a high boiling solvent N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF). But it is difficult to completely remove the fluoride from the addition of fluoride, because DMF can form hydrogen bonds with the fluoride molecules, difficult to separate from each other; 3, in order to unreacted 5-fluorouracil and tegafur separation and recycling , The use of carcinogenic solvent chloroform as a extractant in the conventional method to separate 5-fluorouracil and tegafur. However, the main role of chloroform on the central nervous system, with anesthesia, the heart, liver, kidney damage; the environment is also harmful to the water can cause pollution. Therefore, the use of volatile solvent chloroform, even if the necessary measures to reduce its volatilization, will still cause harm to human health and the environment; 4, low yield. Since both NI and N-3 in the 5-fluorouracil molecule react with 2-tert-butoxytetrahydrofuran, the addition of tegafur is also the addition of 1,3-bis (tetrahydro-2-furyl) -5 - Fluorouracil. Therefore, the improvement of the traditional production process of tegafur is a significant and imminent task.

Paper
A novel protocol for preparation of tegafur (a prodrug of 5-fluorouracil) is reported. The process involves the 1,8-diazabicycloundec-7-ene-mediated alkylation of 5-fluorouracil with 2-acetoxytetrahydrofuran at 90 °C, followed by treatment of the prepurified mixture of the alkylation products with aqueous ethanol at 70 °C. The yield of the two-step process is 72%.

Tegafur, a prodrug of 5-fluorouracil (5-FUra), was discovered in 1967. The compound features high lipophilicity and water solubility compared to 5-FUra. Tegafur is used as a racemate since no significant difference in antitumor activity of enantiomers was observed.
The prodrug is gradually converted to 5-FUra by metabolism in the liver. Hence, a rapid breakdown of the released 5-FUra in the gastrointestinal tract is avoided.(6) In injectable form, tegafur provoked serious side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, or central nervous system disturbances.
The first generation of oral formulation of tegafur , UFT) is a combination of tegafur and uracil in a fixed molar ratio of 1:4, respectively. The uracil slows the metabolism of 5-FUra and reduces production of 2-fluoro-α-alanine as the toxic metabolite. UFT was approved in 50 countries worldwide excluding the USA.
S-1 is the next generation of oral formulation of tegafur.(7) It is a combination of tegafur, gimeracil, and oteracil in a fixed molar ratio of 1:0.4:1, respectively.
Gimeracil inhibits the enzyme responsible for the degradation of 5-FUra. Oteracil prevents the activation of 5-FUra in the gastrointestinal tract, thus minimizing the gastrointestinal toxicity of 5-FUra. S-1 is well-tolerated, but its safety can be influenced by schedule and dose, similar to any other cytotoxic agent. Since common side effects of S-1 can be managed with antidiarrheal and antiemetic medications, the drug can be administered in outpatient settings. S-1 was approved in Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea, and Singapore for the treatment of patients with gastric cancer.
In 2010, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), a division of the European Medicines Agency (EMA), recommended the use of S-1 for the treatment of adults with advanced gastric cancer when given in a combination with cisplatin. Currently, S-1 has not been approved by the FDA in the United States.
There is a great interest in further examination of S-1 as an anticancer chemotherapeutic. Currently, 23 clinical trials with S-1 has been registered in National Institutes of Health (NIH). Combinations of S-1 and other anticancer agents have been employed in a majority of these trials.
