ttfields for lung cancer vs meso - is it the same thing or different

Veteran · · 0 views
So I keep seeing ttfields mentioned for lung cancer treatment and now my oncologist brought it up for my meso. Are they using it the same way or is it different depending on the cancer type.

I'm trying to understand what the hell it actually does. Is it like chemo where it's killing cells, or is it something else entirely. And if lung cancer docs have been using it longer does that mean they know more about how to make it work.

Stage II pleural here, had the surgery in December so I'm looking at what comes next. Want to know if this is worth pushing for or if I should stick with the chemo route we already talked about.

Anyone got experience with this for meso specifically, not just lung cancer.
