NetworkNewsBreaks – Delcath Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: DCTH) Investigating Novel Therapy for the Treatment of Certain Unresectable Liver Cancers

Company: Delcath Systems, Inc. (DCTH)
Category: Stock Spotlights

With an initial potential market opportunity in ocular melanoma liver metastases of between $104 million and $260 million at stake, Delcath Systems (NASDAQ: DCTH) is working with the U.S. FDA toward approval of the company’s Melphalan/Hepatic Delivery System (Melphalan/HDS) chemotherapy system for treatment of certain unresectable liver cancers. The Melphalan/HDS system facilitates the delivery of melphalan directly to the liver and, consequently, allows the administration of higher doses. The blood is then filtered to reduce the level of melphalan and returned to the patient, thereby potentially reducing hematologic side effects. In 2016, Delcath initiated its global FOCUS phase 3 trial in hepatic dominant ocular melanoma, a cancer that often metastasizes to the liver. The FOCUS trial is currently open for patient enrollment at 15 prestigious cancer centers in the United States and Europe.  The company expects to open 25 additional centers for enrollment in 2017.  Delcath is also investigating its therapy in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, a form of bile duct cancer. In 2016, the company secured approximately $35 million in financing to support its commercial activities in Europe and to fund its clinical development plan through to the end of 2017.
