In comparison with lymphomas and leukemias, chemotherapy of solid neoplasms, i.e., cancer, has much more limited success in curing the patient. This lack of efficacy of chemotherapy has been attributed to increased interstitial fluid pressure within cancers, which obstructs convection and only permits diffusion of oxygen and nutrients about 100 μm from blood vessels. As diffusion is limited to this distance, hypoxic and necrotic fractions within the tumor are observed beyond this region. The comparably small number of cancer cells t
