ABSTRACT:
Homo-oligomeric 5-fluorouridine and 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FrU.sub.n and FdU.sub.n, n=oligomer length) are synthesized and used as a polymeric drug delivery system for production of FdUMP, the potent inhibitor of thymidylate synthase (TS) and an important target in cancer chemotherapy. Disclosed are methods of both preparing and utilizing said compositions.
