Exhibit 10.1

While you are employed by the Company, you will devote your full business time, energy and skill to the performance of your duties and responsibilities hereunder; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall prevent you from accepting appointment to or continuing to serve on any board of directors or trustees of any non-competing business corporation, charitable organization or other entity with the consent of the Chief Executive Officer of Parent (“CEO”) or the Board, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will not engage in any activities that could create an actual or perceived business or fiduciary conflict of interest with the Novocure Group or unreasonably interfere with the conduct of your obligations under this Agreement or any Novocure Group policy or applicable law or regulation (including the laws of any stock exchange on which the shares of Parent stock are listed).

3.Base Salary and Discretionary Annual Bonus.

(a)While you are employed by the Company, the Company will pay you a base salary at the rate of CHF 450,000 per year (the "Base Salary").

Such bonus will be subject to your successful achievement of performance goals set by your Manager or the Board (or committee thereof), in their sole discretion, including, without limitation, goals based on the operating results of the Novocure Group or your individual performance.

4.Equity Awards. While you are employed by the Company, you will be eligible to participate in the Parent’s 2024 Omnibus Incentive Plan or such other equity-based long-term incentive compensation plan, program or arrangement generally made available to similarly situated senior executives of the Company from time to time (the "Plan"), as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Board or authorized committee thereof.

The employment with the Company may be terminated by the Company at any time with or without Cause (as defined below) or by you at any time with or without Good Reason (as defined below).

Exhibit 10.1

employment with the Company for any reason (the “Restricted Period”), you agree that you will not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, engage in Competition worldwide with the Novocure Group. “Competition” means participating, directly or indirectly, as an individual proprietor, partner, stockholder, officer, employee, director, joint venturer, investor, lender, consultant or in any other capacity whatsoever in any business or in the development of any business if (A) such business competes or would compete with the business of the Novocure Group (it being understood that the business of the Novocure Group is the development and commercialization of its proprietary tumor treating fields (TTF) therapy for the treatment of solid tumor cancers (the “Business”)) and (B) your activities related to such business would create the opportunity for you to use confidential and proprietary information of the Novocure Group in connection with any other product being developed, manufactured, supplied or sold by any such business or business under development that competes with or upon introduction of a product would compete with the Business. For the avoidance of doubt and by way of example, the foregoing restrictions would not preclude you from being employed by a pharmaceutical company during the Restricted Period to the extent that your activities at such pharmaceutical company would not be directly related to the development, marketing or sale of products that are directly competitive with the Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7(a) shall prohibit you from (i) investing, as a passive investor, in any publicly held company provided that your beneficial ownership of any class of such publicly held company’s securities does not exceed one percent (1%) of the outstanding securities of such class, or (ii) with the consent of the Board, entering the employ of any academic institution or governmental or regulatory instrumentality of any country or any domestic or foreign state, county, city or political subdivision.

(b)Confidentiality. You agree that you will not, directly or indirectly, use, make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any person or entity, other than in the course of your assigned duties hereunder and for the benefit of the Novocure Group, either while you are employed by the Company hereunder or at any time thereafter, any business and technical information or trade secrets, nonpublic, proprietary or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Novocure Group, whether the foregoing will have been obtained by you during your employment or otherwise. The foregoing will not apply to information that (i) was known to the public prior to its disclosure to you; (ii) becomes generally known to the public or in the industry subsequent to disclosure to you through no wrongful act by you or any of your representatives; or (iii) you are required to disclose by applicable law, regulation or legal process (provided that you provide the Company with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure and cooperate with the Company in seeking a protective order or other appropriate protection of such information). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement or otherwise, nothing herein shall prohibit you from reporting possible violations of federal or state law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity or self-regulatory organization including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are

Exhibit 10.1

protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal or state law or regulation (it being understood that you do not need the Company’s prior authorization to make any such reports or disclosures and you are not required to notify the Company that you have made such reports or disclosures).

(c)Non-Solicitation of Customers. You agree that during the Restricted Period, you will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or influence, or attempt to solicit or influence, customers of the Novocure Group to purchase goods or services then sold by the Novocure Group from any other person or entity.

(d)Non-Solicitation of Suppliers. You agree that during the Restricted Period, you will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or influence, or attempt to solicit or influence, the Novocure Group’s suppliers to provide goods or services then provided to the Novocure Group to any other person or entity in Competition with the Novocure Group.

(e)Non-Solicitation of Employees. You recognize that you will possess confidential information about other employees of the Novocure Group relating to their education, experience, skills, abilities, compensation and benefits, and inter-personal relationships with customers of the Novocure Group. You recognize that the information you possess and will possess about these other employees is not generally known, is of substantial value to the Novocure Group in developing its business and in securing and retaining customers, and has been and will be acquired by you because of your business position with the Novocure Group. You agree that, during the Restricted Period, you will not (x) directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person or entity solicit or recruit any employee of the Novocure Group to leave such employment for the purpose of being employed by, or rendering services to, you or any person or entity unaffiliated with the Novocure Group, or (y) convey any such confidential information or trade secrets about other employees of the Novocure Group to any person or entity other than in the course of your assigned duties hereunder and for the benefit of the Novocure Group or as otherwise required by law or judicial or administrative process.

(f)Non-Disparagement. You and the Novocure Group agree that neither will, nor induce others to, Disparage the Novocure Group or any of their past or present officers, directors, employees or products, or you. “Disparage” will mean you or any Novocure Group officer or director making comments or statements to the press, the Novocure Group’s employees or any individual or entity with whom the Novocure Group has a business relationship, or any prospective new employer of yours, that would adversely affect in any manner: (i) the conduct of the business of the Novocure Group (including, without limitation, any products or business plans or prospects); or (ii) the business reputation of the Novocure Group, or any of its products, or its past or present officers, directors, employees, stockholders and affiliates, or you. Nothing in this Section 7(f) shall prevent you or representatives of the Novocure Group from (x) pleading or testifying, to the extent that he or she reasonably believes such pleadings or testimony to be true, in any legal or administrative proceeding if such testimony is compelled or

Exhibit 10.1

requested, (y) from otherwise complying with legal requirements, or (z) your making any truthful and normal competitive comments and statements that do not violate Section 7 of this Agreement or, directly or indirectly, mention the Novocure Group or any of its executives or officers and are not directed at customers or employees of the Novocure Group.

(g)Inventions.

(i)You acknowledge and agree that all trade secrets, works, concepts, drawings, materials, documentation, procedures, diagrams, specifications, models, processes, formulae, data, programs, knowhow, designs, techniques, ideas, methods, inventions, discoveries, improvements, work products or developments or other works of authorship (“Inventions”), whether patentable or unpatentable, (x) that relate to your work with the Company or any other member of the Novocure Group, made, developed or conceived by you, solely or jointly with others or with the use of any of the Novocure Group’s equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secrets or (y) suggested by any work that you perform in connection with the Novocure Group, either while performing your duties with the Novocure Group or on your own time, but only insofar as the Inventions are related to your work as an employee of the Company or the Novocure Group, belong exclusively to the Company (or its designee and assigns, including without limitation the Parent), whether or not patent applications are filed thereon. You acknowledge and agree that you have previously disclosed to the Company all Inventions that belong to the Company pursuant to the previous sentence and that you have kept and will keep full and complete written records (the “Records”), in the manner prescribed by the Company, of all Inventions, and will promptly disclose all future Inventions completely and in writing to the Company. The Records are and will be the sole and exclusive property of the Company (or its designee and assigns, including without limitation the Parent), and you will surrender them upon the termination of your employment, or upon the Company’s request. You do hereby assign to the Company (and its designees and assigns) the Inventions, including all rights in and to patents and other intellectual property rights that may issue thereon in any and all countries, whether during your past employment with the Company or subsequent to the term of this Agreement, together with the right to file, in your name or in the name of the Company (or its designee), applications for patents and equivalent rights (the “Applications”). You will, at any time during and subsequent to the term of this Agreement, make such Applications, sign such papers, take all rightful oaths, and perform all acts as may be requested from time to time by the Company with respect to the Inventions and the underlying intellectual property. You will also execute assignments to the Company (or its designee or assigns) of the Applications, and give the Company and its attorneys all reasonable assistance (including the giving of testimony) to obtain the Inventions and the underlying intellectual property for its benefit, all without additional compensation to you from the Company, but entirely at the Company’s expense.

Exhibit 10.1

(ii)In addition, the Inventions are deemed “work made for hire,” as such term is defined under the copyright law of the United States, on behalf of the Company and you agree that the Company (or its designees or assigns) is and will be the sole owner of the Inventions, and all underlying rights therein, in all media now known or hereinafter devised, throughout the universe and in perpetuity without any further obligations or compensation to you. If the Inventions, or any portion thereof, are deemed not to be “work made for hire,” you hereby irrevocably convey, transfer, assign and deliver to the Company (or its designees or assigns), all rights, titles and interests in all media now known or hereinafter devised, throughout the universe and in perpetuity, in and to the Inventions and the underlying intellectual property, including without limitation, (A) all of your rights, titles and interests in the copyrights (and all renewals, revivals and extensions thereof) related to the Inventions and the underlying intellectual property; (B) all rights of any kind or any nature now or hereafter recognized, including without limitation, the unrestricted right to make modifications, adaptations and revisions to the Inventions, to exploit and allow others to exploit the Inventions and the underlying intellectual property; and (C) all rights to sue at law or in equity for any infringement, or other unauthorized use or conduct in derogation of the Inventions, known or unknown, prior to the date hereof, including without limitation the right to receive all proceeds and damages therefrom.

Novocure Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Quarterly net revenues of $155 million, up 22% year-over-year, with 4,113 active patients on therapy as of September 30, 2024

FDA approves Optune Lua® for the treatment of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer

After 22 years as CEO, Asaf Danziger announces planned retirement at year end, will be succeeded by current CFO Ashley Cordova

Christoph Brackmann appointed Chief Financial Officer, effective January 1, 2025

Root, Switzerland – Novocure (NASDAQ: NVCR) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024. Novocure is a global oncology company working to extend survival in some of the most aggressive forms of cancer by developing and commercializing its innovative therapy, Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields).

“This was a period of strong execution and achievement at Novocure,” said William Doyle, Novocure’s Executive Chairman. “We secured FDA approval and launched Optune Lua for the treatment of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, achieved significant year-over-year revenue growth across our major markets, and solidified our management team to drive our next stage of growth. It is an exciting time to be at Novocure as we pursue opportunities to make a difference in the lives of our patients.”

Financial updates for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024:

•Total net revenues for the quarter were $155.1 million, an increase of 22% compared to the same period in 2023. This increase is primarily driven by our successful launch in France and improved U.S. approval rates.

◦The U.S., Germany, France and Japan contributed $98.3 million, $17.0 million, $15.2 million and $8.6 million, respectively, with other active markets contributing $11.3 million.

◦Improved approval rates in the U.S. resulted in $4.7 million of increased net revenue from prior period claims during the quarter. We do not expect this benefit to recur.

◦Revenue in Greater China from Novocure’s partnership with Zai Lab totaled $4.6 million.

•Gross margin for the quarter was 77%.

•Research, development and clinical studies expenses for the quarter were $51.9 million, a decrease of 3% from the same period in 2023.

•Sales and marketing expenses for the quarter were $59.8 million, an increase of 3% compared to the same period in 2023.

•General and administrative expenses for the quarter were $40.1 million, a decrease of 4% compared to the same period in 2023.

•Net loss for the quarter was $30.6 million with loss per share of $0.28.

•Adjusted EBITDA* for the quarter was $1.7 million.

Exhibit 99.1

•Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $959.9 million as of September 30, 2024.

Operational updates for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024:

•1,586 prescriptions were received in the quarter, an increase of 8% compared to the same period in 2023. Prescriptions from the U.S., Germany, France and Japan contributed 934; 217; 171 and 99 prescriptions, respectively, with the remaining 165 prescriptions received in other active markets.

•As of September 30, 2024, there were 4,113 active patients on therapy. Active patients from the U.S., Germany, France and Japan contributed 2,200; 570; 393 and 437 active patients, respectively, with the remaining 513 active patients contributed by other active markets.

Quarterly updates and achievements:

•In October, based on the results from the Phase 3 LUNAR trial, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved our Premarket Approval (PMA) application for Optune Lua for concurrent use with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors or docetaxel for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic NSCLC who have progressed on or after a platinum-based regimen. Our commercial launch in the U.S. is underway with physician certification ongoing and first prescription received shortly after approval.

•In October, the U.S. FDA granted Breakthrough Device designation for the use of TTFields therapy for brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer. Breakthrough Device designation gives us more frequent, faster and interactive access to the FDA review team and senior management during the review process, priority review of our marketing application upon filing, and expedited review of pre-PMA manufacturing and quality systems compliance inspections.

•In September, we announced the retirement of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Asaf Danziger, effective January 1, 2025. Mr. Danziger will be succeeded by Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Ashley Cordova. In October, we appointed Christoph Brackmann to succeed Ms. Cordova as CFO, effective January 1, 2025. In addition, we announced the promotion of Mukund Paravasthu to the role of Chief Operating Officer, effective October 1, 2024.

Anticipated clinical milestones:

•Top-line data from Phase 3 PANOVA-3 clinical trial in locally advanced pancreatic cancer (Q4 2024)

•Data from Phase 2 PANOVA-4 clinical trial in metastatic pancreatic cancer (2026)

•Data from Phase 3 TRIDENT clinical trial in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (2026)

*Non-GAAP Financial Measurements

We measure our performance based upon a non-U.S. GAAP measurement of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and shared-based compensation ("Adjusted EBITDA"). We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because it helps investors compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of earnings attributable to our capital structure, tax rate and material non-cash items, specifically share-based compensation.
