Targeted radiosensitisation by pegylated liposome-encapsulated 3′, 5′-O-dipalmitoyl 5-iodo-2′-deoxyuridine in a head and neck cancer xenograft model

5-Iodo-2′-deoxyuridine (IUdR) is an effective radiosensitiser but its clinical development has been limited by toxicity. Prolonged intravenous infusions of IUdR are necessary for optimal tumour uptake but cause dose-limiting myelosuppression. The lack of selective tumour uptake can lead to radiosens...
