Stage IV colorectal cancer stay remissions in 3 scans: no evidence of disease (NED)

A 47-year-old woman, Malaysian, with stage IV colorectal cancer, spread to both liver and lung, had exhausted two years of conventional treatment by the time ECCT was introduced. What the imaging recorded over the next seven months was unexpected.

The diagnosis came in October 2023. Colorectal cancer with liver metastases, already stage IV at first detection. She was 45 years old. Chemotherapy began within weeks. By March 2024, surgeons had removed sections of both the colon and approximately 40% of the liver. The intent was curative, but by July 2024 the disease had returned.

A second round of chemotherapy began in September 2024 with an ablation procedure was performed to destroy a recurrent liver lesion. By April 2025, imaging confirmed yet another recurrence. A second major liver surgery followed in May 2025, a right posterior retinectomy, removal of a segment V ablation zone, and cholecystectomy. Within weeks, chemotherapy began again.

She had undergone two liver surgeries, one ablation, multiple chemotherapy courses, and a bowel resection, all within first 2 years of first diagnosis. Each time the disease came back fast.

The July 2025 CT scan made the picture clear. A nodule adjacent to the liver's segment III ablation zone had nearly doubled, from approximately 1 cm to 1.9 × 1.9 cm. Multiple new, scattered hypodense lesions had appeared across the remnant liver. A lung nodule in the left lower lobe had grown from 0.3 cm to 0.7 cm. The radiologist's conclusion noted progressive liver disease and recommended an MRI for further evaluation.

Immediately, she commenced ECCT therapy under Dr Chandran, to complement her ongoing chemotherapy by targeting electrically active cells. She continued her 12th and final cycle of chemotherapy, completing it in February 2026. The ECCT therapy continued beyond that to prevent it from coming back again and again as per previous experience.

The November 2025 CT scan, three months after starting ECCT, returned a different picture entirely and following scan stay NED instead of bouncing fast as per her experience pre-ECCT.

At the time of writing, she has completed 12 cycles of chemotherapy and remains on ECCT therapy as a maintenance protocol. Her blood markers, including CEA, liver function, and full blood count, were stable and normal.

The imaging is the evidence. Three scans. Three verdicts. No evidence of disease. Stage IV colorectal cancer stay remissions.
