Japan approves national reimbursement for Novocure's Optune Lua in NSCLC

Novocure Ltd. said Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved national reimbursement for Optune Lua under the country’s National Health Insurance coverage.

Novocure said it plans to launch Optune Lua in Japan with reimbursement coverage.
