Disclosed are methods of selectively delivering a medicant to an abnormal brain region and/or to a malignant tumor in a mammalian subject, including a human. A medicant is administered simultaneously or substantially simultaneously with a potassium channel activator (other than bradykinin or a bradykinin analog), such as NS-1619, EBIO, a guanylyl cyclase activating protein, an activator of soluble guanylyl cyclase (e.g., nitric oxide or a nitric oxide donor) or an activator of cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase, whereby the medicant is delivered selectively to the cells of the abnormal brain region and/or to the tumor, compared to normal tissues. Thus, among the disclosures is a method of treating a malignant tumor in a human subject.
