We have investigated the effects of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and hydroxyurea (HU) with radiation on two human head and neck squamous carcinoma cell lines. SQ-20B has a D₀ of 239 cGy and an S phase fraction of 37%, while SQ-38 has a D₀ of 146 cGy and an S phase fraction of 31 %. For SQ-20B the surviving fraction at 100 cGy was significantly reduced (p < 0.05) when cells were exposed to HU or to 5-FU or both chemotherapy agents together with radiation. No significant effect was seen for SQ-38 with either chemotherapy agent alone or in combination with radiation as compared with radiation alone. Therefore, additive cytotoxicity between 5-FU and HU and radiotherapy was observed only in a head and neck cancer cell line with a higher DO and a higher S phase fraction.
