    Abstract:
    A case of hepatocellular carcinoma was treated with anti-alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) antibody-adriamycin via the hepatic artery with induced hypertension by angiotensin II. A minor response was achieved (from 13.5 X 9.0 cm to 10.5 X 7.5 cm) and serum AFP decreased from 310,000 ng/ml to 26,000 ng/ml. The patient has been doing well during a follow-up period of one year. This result suggests that targeting chemotherapy used for each drug delivery system would be more effective if combined with two or more similar modalities.
