NovoCure's stock surged 26.67% in pre-market trading following the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's approval of its Optune Pax® device for the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer.

The FDA approval, announced by the company, marks the first new treatment for this condition in nearly 30 years. Optune Pax is a wearable device that delivers Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) noninvasively and is approved for use in combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy.

The regulatory decision is based on positive results from the Phase 3 PANOVA-3 clinical trial, which demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in median overall survival for patients treated with Optune Pax and chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone. The trial met its primary endpoint, showing a median overall survival of 16.2 months versus 14.2 months for the control group.
