Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for treating tumors. A method of treatment may include reducing the microvasculature of a region between a tumor and a lumen through or adjacent to the tumor (e.g., by administering radiation therapy targeting the tumor), isolating a segment of a lumen proximate to the tumor, and administering a dose of a chemotherapeutic agent to the segment.
