Background

TAS-102 (Taiho Pharma USA, Inc.) is an anti-cancer drug under development and in stage 3 clinical trials for the treatment of colorectal cancer. It is composed of the thymidine phosphorylase inhibitor (TPI) tipiracil and the cytotoxin trifluridine. Trifluridine inhibits tumor growth by being incorporated into DNA during DNA synthesis. Tipiracil prevents trifluridine from being broken down when taken orally.
