Zap without a knife: new device targets liver tumors too close to veins
NCT ID NCT07214363
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 24 times
Summary
This study tests a new device that uses electrical pulses to destroy liver tumors located dangerously close to major blood vessels, where standard heat-based ablation often fails. Twenty adults with liver cancer who cannot have surgery will receive this treatment under general anesthesia. Researchers will monitor tumor destruction and safety for four months to see if this approach offers a better option for hard-to-treat liver cancers.
