Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive breast cancer subtype, with limited treatment options. Modulated electro-hyperthermia (mEHT) is a novel adjuvant cancer therapy that induces selective cancer damage. However, mEHT upregulates heat shock protein beta 1 (HSPB1), a cancer-promoting stress chaperone molecule.

Female breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer worldwide. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive type and there is no existing endocrine or targeted therapy. Modulated electro-hyperthermia (mEHT) is a non-invasive complementary cancer therapy using an electromagnetic field generated by amplitude modulated 13.

Modulated electro-hyperthermia (mEHT) is an adjuvant cancer therapy that enables tumor-selective heating (+2.5 °C). In this study, we investigated whether mEHT accelerates the tumor-specific delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) from lyso-thermosensitive liposomal doxorubicin (LTLD) and improves its anticancer efficacy in mice bearing a triple-negative breast cancer cell line (4T1).

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive breast cancer type with no targeted therapy and hence limited treatment options. Modulated electrohyperthermia (mEHT) is a novel complementary therapy where a 13.56 MHz radiofrequency current targets cancer cells selectively, inducing tumor damage by thermal and electromagnetic effects.
