Abstract
A chemoembolization therapy, which combines therapeutic effects of peripheral arterial occlusion with the local administration of an anti-cancer agent. A particle or microsphere occludes the arteries providing blood flow to the tumor, resulting in tumor oxygen deprivation. The anti-angiogenic agent is an anti-cancer drug.
