The case study highlights potential optimization of the TAMP procedure with RenovoCath to deliver intra-arterial gemcitabine (a commonly used chemotherapy) directly near a tumor (rather than traditional systemic IV administration) in a patient with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC). Importantly, PET-CT imaging, rather than CT alone, showed a meaningful reduction in tumor metabolic activity after treatment, suggesting that PET may improve monitoring of therapeutic response following treatment delivered via TAMP.

The case study, titled "Trans-arterial gemcitabine micro perfusion of locally advanced pancreatic cancer enabled by coil plus glue embolization of a pancreaticoduodenal branch," was authored by Bela Kis, MD, PhD, and his colleagues at Moffitt Cancer Center and published in Radiology Case Reports. This is the first reported case in which physicians successfully embolized, or sealed off, a small branching artery using tiny coils and surgical glue to better optimize isolation of flow with TAMP-mediated gemcitabine delivered with RenovoCath during the same procedure.

The case study describes treatment of an 82-year-old patient with unresectable LAPC who underwent targeted intra-arterial gemcitabine treatment using TAMP following stereotactic body radiation therapy. During the procedure, physicians identified a pancreaticoduodenal artery (PDA) side branch that prevented optimal vessel isolation required for TAMP’s approach to pressure-mediated drug-delivery. Investigators subsequently performed coil plus glue embolization of the side branch, successfully enabling localized gemcitabine delivery via TAMP in the same procedural setting. The patient tolerated all 8 TAMP procedures (twice per month) without complications. Post eighth treatment at the 4-month follow-up, CT scans revealed stable disease (no change in tumor size) relative to scans performed prior to the first TAMP treatment, whereas PET-CT revealed a 52% reduction in tumor metabolic activity at the site of treatment.

"LAPC is already difficult-to-treat, and a pancreaticoduodenal artery (PDA) side branch adds another challenge to targeted therapy," said Bela Kis, MD, PhD, Moffitt Cancer Center and the first author of the case study. "TAMP uses RenovoCath, an innovative dual-balloon occlusion catheter designed to deliver therapy directly near tumors while reducing systemic exposure. The technology creates localized intra-arterial pressure that drives therapeutic agents across the vessel wall near the tumor."

Dr. Kis added, "We were encouraged by this case because the patient completed all eight RenovoCath-enabled TAMP treatments without complications. At the four-month follow-up, PET-CT imaging showed stable disease, while metabolic imaging indicated a positive treatment response, including a 52% reduction in fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) activity at the treatment site."

"These findings further strengthen the growing body of peer-reviewed evidence supporting the procedural flexibility and targeted delivery capabilities of our TAMP therapy platform enabled by RenovoCath," said Ramtin Agah, MD, RenovoRx’s Chief Medical Officer, Executive Chairman, and Founder. "They also show how physicians may be able to address anatomical challenges to optimize targeted intra-arterial therapy, potentially increasing the therapeutic benefit of localized treatment options for patients with difficult-to-treat cancers."

Patients with R/R T-ALL/LBL face substantial treatment challenges due to paucity and limited efficacy of available therapies. Findings presented at EHA (Free EHA Whitepaper)2026 highlight the value of CTD402 as an "off-the-shelf", point-of-care-ready CAR-T cell therapy for heavily pretreated pediatric and adult patients.

TENACITY-01 A Global Study of CTD402, Allogeneic Anti-CD7 CAR T-Cell, In Relapsed or Refractory (R/R) T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia/Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL)

In a second poster presentation delivered by Dr. Lori Muffly of Stanford Medicine, preliminary data from TENACITY-01, a global Phase 1b/2 study of CTD402, was featured. As of June 8th, 2026, seven patients with R/R T-ALL/LBL received CTD402 at the recommended phase 2 dose following standard lymphodepletion chemotherapy. The therapy demonstrated an overall response rate of 85.7% (6/7 patients) and an overall complete remission (CRc = CR + CRi) rate of 71.4% (5/7 patients), with 80% (4/5) achieving MRD-negative status.

The safety profile has been manageable, with low-grade (<=G2) cytokine release syndrome observed in 86% of patients and immune effector cell-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis-like syndrome observed in 29% of patients. Notably, no cases of immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome or graft-versus-host disease were reported. CTD402 demonstrated robust pharmacokinetics with peak expansion at Day 10 and persistence beyond 28 days in 60% of patients. One highlighted case involved a heavily pretreated patient with 90% bone marrow blasts and extensive extramedullary disease who achieved complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery and successfully transitioned to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant, continuing in remission thereafter.

"These results from TENACITY-01 validate our earlier CTD402 findings in a global setting," said Lori Muffly, MD, MS, of Stanford Medicine. "We’re now seeing consistent efficacy with an 85.7% overall response rate and high rates of MRD-negative remissions, reinforcing the potential of this off-the-shelf therapy for patients with very limited treatment options."

CTD402 Allogeneic Anti-CD7 CAR T-Cell Therapy is Safe and Effective in Adolescent/Pediatric Patients (pts) with Relapsed/Refractory (R/R) T ALL/LBL

In a poster presentation delivered by Dr. Xian Zhang of Hebei Yanda Ludaopei Hospital, researchers analyzed pooled safety and efficacy data from multiple Phase 1/2 studies, conducted across five academic centers in China, evaluating CTD402 in 15 adolescent and pediatric patients with a median age of 15 years (range 10-17). Despite treating a challenging patient population who had received a median of two prior lines of therapy (range 1-5), with 26.7% having primary refractory disease, 60% with extramedullary disease, and 60% with high-risk molecular features, the therapy demonstrated an impressive 80% complete remission rate (12/15 patients), with 83.3% of responders (10/12) achieving MRD-negative status.

The safety profile was favorable, with 66.7% experiencing predominantly mild Grade 1-2 CRS and notably no neurotoxicity or severe infections observed. CAR-T cells persisted for at least 28 days in 66.7% of patients, with some showing persistence up to 90-180 days, and at a median follow-up of 21.94 months, median overall survival was not reached in patients who received consolidative allogeneic transplant, compared with 4.8 months in non-transplant patients (p=0.026), highlighting the potential benefit of post-CAR-T consolidation strategies.

"These encouraging results from our pediatric cohort underscore CTD402’s potential to transform care for patients with R/R T-ALL/LBL," said Imviva Biotech Chief Medical Officer Jan Davidson-Moncada, MD, PhD. "The combination of strong efficacy—with 80% of pediatric patients achieving complete remission—and a favorable safety profile, alongside CTD402’s immediate availability as an off-the-shelf therapy, demonstrates the potential to address a critical unmet need in this patient population."

The new findings demonstrate that Arima’s Hi-C sequencing-based approach, available clinically through the Aventa Lymphoma test, identified clinically relevant lymphoma rearrangements missed by high-coverage whole genome sequencing (WGS), including rearrangements involving key lymphoma-associated genes such as MYC, BCL2, BCL6, CCND1, and IRF4. The presentation builds on previously presented data showing Hi-C sequencing can overcome limitations of fluorescence in situ hybridization, or FISH, by enabling genome-wide detection of diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic biomarkers from FFPE lymphoma specimens.

In the WGS comparison study, 25 FFPE lymphoma specimens containing 37 clinically relevant structural variants previously identified by Hi-C sequencing and validated by orthogonal methods were analyzed using high-coverage WGS. Despite average raw sequencing coverage of 180×, with a range of 132× to 238×, many rearrangements remained undetected by two different WGS analysis pipelines. The DRAGEN Somatic Pipeline identified 19 of 37 rearrangements, representing just 51% recall when compared to Hi-C sequencing, while Sentieon TNscope showed improved but still incomplete detection, with performance particularly limited for immunoglobulin-associated rearrangements.

WGS detection was lower for rearrangements involving immunoglobulin partners than for non-immunoglobulin rearrangements. DRAGEN detected seven of 16 (44%) immunoglobulin-associated rearrangements and 12 of 21 (57%) non-immunoglobulin rearrangements, while Sentieon TNscope detected eight of 16 (50%) and 15 of 21 (71%), respectively. Key lymphoma-associated genes were also missed across both pipelines: BCL6 was missed in three of 11 cases (27%) by Sentieon and four of 11 cases (36%) by DRAGEN; MYC was missed in four of eight cases (50%) by both algorithms; and BCL2 was missed in two of six cases (33%) by both algorithms.

"Rearrangements are central to lymphoma diagnosis and classification, but they remain challenging to detect reliably with methods that were not designed to directly capture genome structure," said Anthony Schmitt, PhD, Senior Vice President, Science, Arima Genomics. "These data show that even deep whole genome sequencing can miss a substantial fraction of clinically relevant rearrangements in FFPE lymphoma specimens. By providing a more direct view of genome structure, Hi-C sequencing enables high-resolution detection of rearrangements that are critical for accurate lymphoma workup. Together with prior data showing advantages over FISH, these findings support Hi-C as a powerful approach for comprehensive rearrangement detection in routine lymphoma biopsies."

Arima will also present additional data demonstrating Hi-C sequencing shows superior performance to FISH. These data further support the use of Hi-C sequencing as a genome-wide approach to detect guideline-recommended and emerging cytogenomic biomarkers in lymphoma.

ANOC-001 is the first product to enter Anocca’s VIDAR-1 clinical programme, which focuses on pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The therapy is designed for patients whose tumours carry a specific mutation in the KRAS gene. The product candidate has been discovered, developed and manufactured by Anocca at its in-house facilities in Sweden. ANOC-001 is the first non-viral gene-edited T cell therapy to be evaluated in Europe, with the deployment of this technology enabling scalable product development and future commercialisation.

Pancreatic cancer remains one of the deadliest cancer types, with a five-year survival rate below 10% (1). Despite recent advances there are currently no definitive treatments for patients with progressed disease (2). KRAS mutations are one of the most common cancer mutations and are implicated in pancreatic, lung and colorectal cancers. G12V and G12D mutations in KRAS affect around 90% of pancreatic cancer patients. VIDAR-1 addresses this unmet need by engineering the immune system’s T-cells to recognise and attack cancer cells carrying the KRAS mutation.

Reagan Jarvis, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Anocca, said: "The dosing of patients marks an important milestone for Anocca, and demonstrates our ability to develop, manufacture and clinically deploy precision TCR-T cell therapy products. The novel ANOC-001 clinical candidate was developed with Anocca’s proprietary analytical platform that maps targets and identifies, characterises and engineers T-cell receptors. We are grateful to our team, investors and partners whose efforts and participation made this milestone possible."

Hugh Salter, Chief Scientific Officer, added: "The VIDAR-1 clinical programme is designed to evaluate multiple TCR-T product candidates targeting distinct KRAS mutations and HLA combinations [2]. ANOC-001 is the first product in this series and additional products targeting different forms of mutant KRAS will be introduced into the uniquely designed clinical programme. By using non-viral gene editing technology, we are able to scale delivery of highly precise therapies to broader patient populations. We would like to thank our clinical collaborators for their support as well as the study participants and their families."

Recruitment and manufacture are ongoing for Phase I of the multi-centre VIDAR-1 trial, which is being conducted at eight leading university hospitals across Sweden, Denmark, Germany, and The Netherlands.
