New electric pulse therapy tackles inoperable liver tumors near vital vessels

This study tests a treatment called irreversible electroporation (IRE) for people with liver cancer who cannot have surgery because their tumors are too close to major blood vessels. IRE uses short, strong electrical pulses to destroy cancer cells without harming nearby blood vessels. The study will enroll 20 participants and follow them for 4 months to see if the tumors are completely destroyed and to check for side effects.
