Eniluracil, which was previously under development by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), is being developed by Adherex to enhance the therapeutic value and effectiveness of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), one of the world’s most widely-used oncology agents. 5-FU is widely used in the U.S. and is often first or second line therapy for a variety of cancers including colorectal, breast, gastric, head and neck, ovarian and basal cell cancer of the skin. Eniluracil could improve 5-FU by increasing its effectiveness, reducing its side effects and/or making it orally available. Eniluracil has received Orphan Drug status from the FDA for the treatment of hepatocellular cancer in combination with fluoropyrimidines (including 5-FU).

Normally, 5-FU is rapidly broken down in the body by an enzyme known as dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD). Eniluracil irreversibly inhibits DPD, thereby substantially slowing the breakdown of 5-FU and prolonging exposure of the tumor cells to the drug.
