- Abstract:
- Tumor treating fields (TTFields) is a novel anticancer treatment that disrupts tumor cell mitosis, and the first US Food and Drug Administration-approved indication of TTFields is recurrent glioblastoma. Nowadays, TTFields is also widely used in the treatment of other tumors. Herein the mechanism, characteristics and application of TTFields in the treatment of glioblastoma are summarized, and its advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. Finally, the application prospect of TTFields in the treatment of glioblastoma is discussed.
