Inhibiting tumour recurrence after surgical resection

摘要

To inhibit recurrence of a tumour at a local site in a mammal in conjunction with the resection of tissue at the site, there is applied to the site a composition which includes an agent for inhibiting attachment of a tumour cell in the area of the tissue. Preferably the agent is chosen from L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid, Dispase, and a synthetic fibronectin peptide containing an arginine-­glycine-aspartate sequence.
