Introduce just enough poison to kill the bad stuff without killing the patient... Once the bad stuff has died, the patient heals and recovers and has basically survived/outlasted the same poison the bad stuff was not able to survive. The factor that defines a poison is the dosage at which it becomes lethal. If this new drug can shrink a tumor, there is a good chance the bulk of the tumor can be removed via surgery and the 2 treatments would work together to rid the patient of the cancer.
