Abstrakt: Regional chemotherapy is an attractive but underevaluated method of treating locally advanced breast cancer. We have combined two novel methods of targeting by delivering a single pulse of adriamycin-loaded albumin microspheres down a radiologically placed internal mammary artery catheter. A complete response was observed and prolonged local control achieved. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
