Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On June 18, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing top line results from its Phase 3 TRIDENT trial, which evaluated the initiation of Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) at the start of chemoradiation (Early Start Arm) compared to initiating TTFields therapy during the subsequent maintenance phase of treatment (Maintenance Start Arm).
The trial did not demonstrate a statistically significant improvement in the primary endpoint of overall survival for the Early Start Arm compared to the Maintenance Start Arm. In the intent-to-treat (ITT) population, the Early Start Arm had a median overall survival of 17.7 months compared to 17.5 months in Maintenance Start Arm (HR 0.953; p=0.519).
TTFields therapy, including initiation with chemoradiation, was well-tolerated, and did not lead to any new safety signals. Device related safety was consistent with prior clinical studies of TTFields therapy in GBM.
The results from TRIDENT have been accepted for presentation at the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) 2026 Annual Meeting.
TRIDENT is a Phase 3 global, pivotal, randomized, open-label, two-arm, multicenter trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of TTFields therapy given concomitantly with chemoradiation (radiation therapy and temozolomide), for newly diagnosed GBM patients, compared to initiating TTFields therapy once chemoradiation therapy is complete. In both arms, TTFields therapy and maintenance temozolomide are continued following chemoradiation therapy. The primary endpoint of the study is overall survival. Secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, one-, two- and three survival rates, overall radiologic response (ORR) based on the 2010 Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria, next progression free survival, based on the 2010 RANO criteria and progression-free survival at 6 months and 12 months, and the severity and frequency of adverse events. RANO guidelines are an international, multidisciplinary set of recommendations designed to standardize the evaluation of treatment response in clinical trials for brain tumors.
