The invention provides methods for preventing or delaying the development of cancer by administering free radical-generating agents to a subject. Representative free radical-generating agents include endoperoxide compounds, such as endoperoxides bearing sesquiterpene compounds such as artemisinin and its analogs, arteflene and its analogs, 1,2,4-trioxanes and 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes. Intracellular iron concentrations may be enhanced by the administration of iron salts or complexes.
