Abstract

See full text

Electrical modulation provides treatment of brain tumors, such as glioblastoma. An electrical stimulus may be applied to the brain of a patient with a brain tumor (e.g., primary or metastatic brain tumor in upfront, adjuvant, or recurrent treatment setting) via bitemporal and/or unitemporal electrodes. The electrical modulation acts on brain tumor networks to slow tumor growth and increase survivability of the patient. The electrical modulation also transiently permits passage of therapeutics across the blood-brain barrier. The electrical modulation also sensitizes brain tumors to radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy.
