NovoTTF-100A Therapy for Refractory CNS Involved Small Cell Lung Cancer

August 8, 2017 updated by: John Villano

NovoTTFTM-100A System Therapy for Refractory CNS Involved Small Cell Lung Cancer

The hypothesis of this study is that the addition of NovoTTF-100A System treatment to salvage chemotherapy will significantly increase time to treatment failure in the brain of small cell lung cancer patients.
