Abstract: If $R$ is an integral domain and $A$ is an $R$-algebra, then $A$ has the {it Laurent cancellation property over $R$} if $A^{[pmn]}con{g}_R{B}^{[pmn]}$ implies $Acon{g}_{R}B$ ($nge0$ and $B$ an $R$-algebra). Here, $A^{[pmn]}$ denotes the ring of Laurent polynomials in $n$ variables over $A$. Our main result (Thm. 4.3) is that, if the transcendence degree of $A$ over $R$ is one, then $A$ has the Laurent cancellation property. The proof uses the characterization of Laurent polynomial rings given in Thm. 3.2.
