Electric shocks + chemo: new hope for liver tumors?
NCT ID NCT05267080
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is a registry that collects information on how well electrochemotherapy (ECT) works for people with liver cancer. ECT uses short electric pulses to help chemotherapy drugs enter cancer cells more effectively. The study will follow 250 adults with primary or secondary liver cancer who are already scheduled to receive ECT, tracking tumor control, side effects, and quality of life.
