Abstract
Regional chemotherapy was developed in the 1950s and continues to play an integral part in the development of newer therapies for advanced solid malignancies. Regional therapies have evolved in complexity but are still based on the pharmacokinetics of drug delivery to solid malignancies. Newer techniques demonstrate that the combination of regional therapies, hyperthermia, and surgery is essential in promoting improved patient outcomes.
