TTFields: a radical new approach to cancer treatment using electric fields

Tumor-treating fields (TTFields) use electric fields tuned to specific frequencies to disrupt the division of solid tumor cancer cells. Novocure has launched Optune, its first TTFields delivery system, for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme and potentially other solid tumor indications.

Scientists propose a targeted lysosomal dysfunction approach for glioblastoma treatment

Researchers at Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report in Nature Communications on how the targeted suppression of lysosome function may lead to brain cancer therapy.
