AUC, area under the concentration versus time curve; C0, initial drug concentration; Cl clearance; t½, elimination half-life; Vss, volume of distribution at steady state; MRT, mean residence time. Cl = Dose/AUC; Vss = Dose/C0; MRT = AUMC/AUC. Data are expressed as the means ± SD (n = 6). * p < 0.05 and ** p < 0.01 compared with that of the 5-FU alone group. po: by mouth; iv: intravenous.
