Last Patient Enrolled in Phase 3 TRIDENT Trial in Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
“TTFields therapy has played a critical role in the treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastoma for nearly a decade, and the TRIDENT trial represents the potential evolution of this treatment paradigm by introducing TTFields earlier, at the same time as radiation therapy and temozolomide,” said Asaf Danziger, Novocure’s Chief Executive Officer. “Preclinical research has shown that the application of TTFields together with radiation therapy leads to a more pronounced cytotoxic effect in glioma cell lines as compared to TTFields after administration of radiation therapy. The TRIDENT study could unlock our ability to reach patients earlier in their treatment journey, further extending patient survival. We remain committed to exploring opportunities to further extend the survival horizon for patients diagnosed with glioblastoma.”
