Electric field therapy + chemo shows promise against pancreatic cancer

NCT ID NCT05624918

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a wearable device that creates electric fields (TTFields) combined with two chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel) for people with pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery. Participants wear the device at least 18 hours daily and receive chemo for three cycles before surgery, then three more cycles after surgery if the tumor is fully removed. The goal is to see if this combination improves survival and increases the chance of successful surgery.
