Characterization of a human squamous carcinoma cell line resistant to cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II).
We have developed a human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell line (SCC-25/CP) which is relatively stably resistant to cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (CDDP) after repeated exposure to… Expand

A clinical-pharmacological evaluation of hepatic arterial infusions of 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine and 5-fluorouracil.
Abstract We have attempted to evaluate the degree to which hepatic arterial infusion of 5-fluoro-2′-deoxyuridine (FdUrd) or 5-fluorouracil produces higher hepatic and lower systemic drug… Expand

Biochemical studies on PT523, a potent nonpolyglutamatable antifolate, in cultured cells.
Studies on the mode of action of PT523 [N alpha-(4-amino-4-deoxypteroyl)-N delta-hemiphthaloyl-L-ornithine], a potent nonpolyglutamatable antifolate, were carried out in sensitive and resistant H35… Expand

Comparison of pharmacokinetics of 5-fluorouracil and 5-fluorouracil with concurrent thymidine infusions in a Phase I trial.
The serum half-life of 5-fluorouracil (5-FUra) in humans is best described as a biexponential decay function, with t1/2 alpha = 7.8 +/- 2.6 (S.E.) min and t1/2 beta = 36.8 +/- 13.5 min during initial… Expand

Synthesis of new 2,4-Diaminopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine and 2,4-Diaminopyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine inhibitors of Pneumocystis carinii, Toxoplasma gondii, and Mycobacterium avium dihydrofolate reductase.
A concise new route allowing easy access to five previously unreported 2,4-diamino-6-(substituted benzyl)pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines (2a-e) was developed, involving condensation of… Expand
