flag USF researchers create non-invasive cancer treatment using electric fields and heat to deliver drugs, now entering human trials.

flag Researchers at the University of South Florida have developed a non-invasive cancer treatment using low-energy electric fields and heat to temporarily open tumors, allowing targeted drug delivery without chemotherapy or surgery. flag The method, refined over 30 years, has successfully treated pets with various cancers and is now being commercialized by LifePulse Bioscience. flag Real-time monitoring of tissue impedance and heat optimizes treatment, which adapts to different tumor types and sizes. flag Clinical trials have shown promising results since 2004, and human trials are anticipated in the near future.
