Alternating Electric Field Tumor Treatment, also known as Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy, is an innovative and non-invasive cancer treatment modality that uses low-intensity, intermediate-frequency electric fields to disrupt cancer cell division and growth. This treatment is primarily used in the management of certain solid tumor cancers, particularly glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a highly aggressive and malignant brain tumor. The therapy involves the use of a medical device called an Optune™, which delivers the alternating electric fields directly to the tumor site through arrays of insulated electrodes placed on the patient's scalp. These electric fields create forces that interfere with cancer cells' normal division and replication during their mitosis phase, leading to cellular disruption and ultimately causing cancer cell death.
TTFields therapy is designed to be used in combination with standard cancer therapy such as surgery, radiation therapy, and others. The addition of TTFields therapy has shown promising results in improving overall survival and progression-free survival rates for patients with GBM, and it has been approved by regulatory authorities in various regions for this specific indication.
