The main questions it aims to answer are:\n\n* Does the addition of mEHT to the Total Neoadjuvant Therapy (TNT) regimen significantly increase the rate of tumor down-staging (ypT and ypN) compared to TNT alone?\n* Does the combination therapy improve the pathological complete response (pCR) rate and long-term outcomes (such as disease-free survival) compared to standard TNT?\n\nResearchers will compare participants randomized to receive Total Neoadjuvant Therapy (TNT) plus mEHT using the Oncotherm EHY-2030 device to participants receiving TNT alone to see if the adjunctive mEHT therapy enhances tumor regression and improves patient prognosis.
