Summary
Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of fluorouracil given by infusion
with that of fluorouracil plus eniluracil given by mouth in treating patients who have
metastatic, recurrent, or residual advanced colorectal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use
different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet
known if fluorouracil is more effective with or without eniluracil for advanced colorectal
cancer
