Patients with liver cancer that cannot be treated with surgical resection or transplantation have few other therapeutic options, and are in need of novel interventions. In 15 July Cancer Research, Jean-Francois Geschwind and colleagues at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, show that direct intraarterial injection of an ATP production inhibitor is an effective inhibitor of liver cancer in rabbits and may be a treatment alternative in humans (Cancer Res 2002, 62:3909-3913).
