From Ben Williams Book: Optune, now including Optune Gio® as its latest version, has shown significant survival benefits for newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients, especially when used in combination with temozolomide. It has been a part of a landmark phase 3 trial (EF-14) that demonstrated a considerable extension in both overall survival and progression-free survival. An ongoing TRIDENT trial is further investigating its efficacy in conjunction with radiation therapy and temozolomide from the onset of treatment. Optune represents a shift towards non-invasive cancer treatment modalities with reduced systemic toxicity and improved quality of life for patients.Property "Has original text" (as page type) with input value "Optune, now including Optune Gio® as its latest version, has shown significant survival benefits for newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients, especially when used in combination with temozolomide.
