Electrochemotherapy: Progress and Prospects

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2012
Treatment of recurrent or unresectable cutaneous and subcutaneaous tumors continues to be a major therapeutic challenge. Electrochemotherapy (ECT) is a palliative treatment of cutaneous and subcutaneous tumor nodules for which standard treatments (e.g. radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgery) have failed or proved to be insufficient.

Percutaneous image guided electrochemotherapy of hepatocellular carcinoma: technological advancement

, 2020
Electrochemotherapy is an effective treatment of colorectal liver metastases and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) during open surgery. The minimally invasive percutaneous approach of electrochemotherapy has already been performed but not on HCC. The aim of

Electrochemotherapy as a New Modality in Interventional Oncology: A Review [PDF]

, 2018
Electroporation is a well-known phenomenon that occurs at the cell membrane when cells are exposed to high-intensity electric pulses. Depending on electric pulse amplitude and number of pulses, applied electroporation can be reversible with membrane ...

Modelling single cell electroporation with bipolar pulse parameters and dynamic pore radii

, 2010
We develop a model of single spherical cell electroporation and simulate spatial and temporal aspects of the transmembrane potential and pore radii as an effect of any form of applied electric field.

Effect of Electrochemotherapy on Muscle and Skin [PDF]

Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment, 2002
The efficient delivery of drugs to tumors is an important tool for the treatment of a variety of cancers. Electric pulses have been shown to facilitate the uptake of molecules through the cell membrane. This procedure has been successful in increasing the effectiveness of antitumor agents (electrochemotherapy; ECT).
