First-in-human, phase I dose-escalation study of single and multiple doses of a first-in-class enhancer of fluoropyrimidines, a dUTPase inhibitor (TAS-114) in healthy male volunteers

Purpose TAS-114 is a first-in-class oral deoxyuridine triphosphatase (dUTPase) inhibitor, which acts as a modulator of the pyrimidine nucleotide metabolic pathway. This was a first-in-human, phase 1 study that investigated the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of single-agent TAS-114 when it was given at single and multiple doses.
