From prescription to ongoing treatment, we’re here to support your patients through every stage of using Optune Pax®

Getting started

Streamlined onboarding enables you to start prescribing with confidence.

Quick and easy certification: Start prescribing after a one-time training session per indication.

MyNovocure HCP Portal access: You can submit prescriptions and renewals directly through the portal.

Start prescribing Optune Pax: MyNovocure manages patient insurance coverage and device training so you can focus on delivering care.

Continuous support

We provide live, virtual, and on-demand patient support, with translation services available in 200+ languages for training and the 24/7 Care Center.

Device Support Specialist (DSS): The DSS is dedicated to your patient throughout their treatment. Frequent check-ins; in-person support for education and troubleshooting as needed; and a consistent, caring personal touch can help your patients on their treatment journey. MyNovocure cannot provide medical advice, and all patients with medical questions will be referred back to the treating HCP.

24/7 Care Center: If patients need technical support, help with reordering supplies, or travel advice and resources, our US-based Care Center answers the call.

MyNovocure app: Our app helps patients track their device usage, order supplies, troubleshoot device alarms, and set treatment reminders. Patients can also find a variety of helpful resources on the app.

Daily life with Optune® Treatments

MyNovocure helps patients monitor their treatment.

Part of their routine: It is vital for your patients to continue their activities of daily living during treatment. We provide best practices and tips for integrating the device into their daily routines, travel, sleep, and bathing.

Skin management: Skin irritation is a common, very manageable side effect of this treatment. We provide general guidance to help minimize the risk of irritation and help patients recognize when medical help for skin issues is needed.

Treatment adjustments: If an update is made to the patient’s array layout, MyNovocure helps them adapt to
stay on therapy.

Indication for Use

Optune Pax® is intended for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, concomitant with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel.

Important Safety Information

Contraindications

Do not use Optune Pax in patients with an electrical implant. Use of Optune Pax together with electrical implants has not been tested and may lead to malfunctioning of the implanted device.

Do not use Optune Pax in patients with a known sensitivity to conductive hydrogels. In patients with this sensitivity, skin contact with the gel used with Optune Pax may commonly cause increased redness and itching. In rare cases, it may lead to severe allergic reactions that can cause a drop in blood pressure and difficulty breathing.

Warnings and Precautions

Optune Pax can only be prescribed by a healthcare provider who has completed the required certification training provided by Novocure® (the device manufacturer).

Do not prescribe Optune Pax for patients who are pregnant, who you think might be pregnant, or who are trying to get pregnant. Women who are able to get pregnant must use birth control when using the device. Safety and effectiveness of Optune Pax in these populations have not been established.

The most common (≥10%) adverse events involving Optune Pax concomitant with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel were neutropenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, constipation, fatigue, peripheral edema, pyrexia, pain, COVID-19, infection, respiratory tract infection, urinary tract infection, pneumonia, hepatic enzyme increased, anorexia, hypokalemia, hypoalbuminemia, hyperglycemia, musculoskeletal pain, peripheral neuropathy, taste disorder, dizziness, sleep disorder, dyspnea, alopecia, skin-related disorders, and hypotension.

Optune Pax device-related skin adverse events (≥5%) include dermatitis, rash, pruritus, maculo-papular rash, erythema, skin irritation, skin reaction, and skin ulcer. Other device-related adverse effects associated with the use of Optune Pax include overheating of the array, leading to pain and/or local skin burns, allergic reaction to the adhesive or gel from the transducer arrays, and local warmth and tingling sensation beneath the arrays.

If the patient has an underlying skin condition on the abdomen, evaluate whether this may prevent or temporarily interfere with Optune Pax treatment.
