Abstract: The invention relates to compositions, methods and kits for the treatment of cancer. ATP-dependent potassium channel agonists, salts thereof, or chemical analogs thereof, for example, minoxidil sulfate, have been found to possess anti-neoplastic properties. Administering minoxidil sulfate may prolong the life of a cancer patient; for example, a patient with a brain tumor.
