NovoCure Ltd Announces CE Mark for Optune Pax in Pancreatic Cancer
What Happened
- On June 30, 2026 NovoCure Ltd announced via press release and filed a Form 8-K (Regulation FD disclosure) that Optune Pax® has received a CE (Conformité Européenne) Mark for the treatment of adult patients with locally‑advanced pancreatic cancer of exocrine origin. The intended use is concomitant with gemcitabine and nab‑paclitaxel (gem/nab‑pac) “in accordance with guideline recommendations.” The filing notes that because use of gem/nab‑pac may vary by market, the CE Mark language references guideline recommendations to reflect local differences. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1. The Form 8‑K was signed by CFO Christoph Brackmann.
