A method is disclosed for detecting colorectal carcinoma having at least one HERG potassium ion channel, where at least one HERG potassium channel is detected in a tissue biopsy of the human color or rectum. In addition, a method is disclosed for treating colorectal carcinoma having at least one HERG potassium channel in a patient in need of said treatment, which comprises the step of administering to said patient, a therapeutically effective amount of 4-[1-{2-(6-methyl-2-pyridinyl)ethyl-4-piperidinyl}carbonyl]methane-sulfoanilide 2HCl sufficient to treat the colorectal carcinoma having at least one HERG potassium channel by selectively blockading the HERG potassium channel.
