Abstract
There is currently no effective therapeutic capable of arresting or inducing regression of primary or metastatic brain cancers. This article presents both pre-clinical and clinical studies supportive that a new bioengineered technology could induce regression and/or elimination of primary and metastatic brain cancers through three disease-modifying mechanisms. Transcranial Radiofrequency Wave Treatment (TRFT) is non-thermal, non-invasive and self-administered in-home to safely provide radiofrequency waves to the entire human brain. Since TRFT has already been shown to stop and reverse the cognitive decline of Alzheimer's Disease in small studies, evidence is provided that three key mechanisms of TRFT action, alone or in synergy, could effectively treat brain cancers: (1) enhancement of brain meningeal lymph flow to increase immune trafficking between the brain cancer and cervical lymph nodes, resulting in a robust immune attack on the brain cancer; (2) rebalancing of the immune system's cytokines within the brain or brain cancer environment to decrease inflammation therein and thus make for an inhospitable environment for brain cancer growth; (3) direct anti-proliferation/antigrowth affects within the brain tumor microenvironment. Importantly, these mechanisms of TRFT action could be effective against both visualized brain tumors and those that are yet too small to be identified through brain imaging. The existing animal and human clinical evidence presented in this perspective article justifies TRFT to be clinically tested immediately against both primary and metastatic brain cancers as monotherapy or possibly in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
