NCT00805337

Brief Summary

Following the discovery of tumor-specific frequencies in patients with advanced cancer, compassionate treatment with tumor-specific frequencies administered at levels that are significantly below the levels generated by cell phone will be offered to patients with limited therapeutic options.

Cancer amplitude-modulated electromagnetic fields

Interventions

Generation of amplitude-modulated electromagnetic fields: the device consists of a battery-driven radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic field generator connected to a 1.5 meter long 50 Ohm coaxial cable, to the other end of which a spoon-shaped mouthpiece made of steel is connected with the inner conductor. The RF source of the device corresponds to a high-level amplitude-modulated class C amplifier operating at 27.12 MHz. The modulation frequency can be varied between 0.01 Hz and 150 kHz with a modulation depth of 85 ± 5%. The RF output is adjusted to 100 mW into a 50 Ohm load using a sinusoidal modulated test signal, which results in an emitting power identical to that of the device used in the treatment of insomnia (Pasche et al 1996, 19:327-336).
