NCT ID NCT06753136
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a treatment called electrochemotherapy for people with tumors in organs like the liver or pancreas that cannot be removed by surgery. The treatment uses short electrical pulses to help chemotherapy drugs enter cancer cells more effectively. The goal is to shrink these tumors and possibly make them operable. The study will enroll 24 adults with various types of cancer.
