[Preclinical and clinical investigation and development of electromagnetic oncological device - experience with solid tumors].

Our objective was to develop an electromagnetic tumor therapy device in a consortial cooperation between Semmelweis University and Oncotherm Ltd., to provide data and contribute to the development of the next generation of devices through preclinical, clinical and developmental modules via in vivo, in vitro studies, and patient treatments. Our numerous preclinical studies support the efficacy of mEHT. Clinical treatments were performed in 181 patients with inoperable and/or oligometastatic solid tumors. The protocols were developed, an international guideline was completed, and the planned steps of device development were realized. By optimizing previous selective RF techniques based on recent research findings, we can provide the most modern evidence-based treatment in the future.
