In response to a question posed by Allen Wilbanks, Dr. Leal remarked, “Yeah, I think we’re going to continue to investigate the use of TT fields in non-small cell lung cancer.”

With a poised demeanor, Dr. Leal highlighted the importance of comprehending how to integrate TT (Tumor Treating) fields into the existing landscape of systemic therapies.
