The abstract, titled "Pharmacodynamics of Intra-arterial vs. Intravenous Gemcitabine in Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer: Results of a Phase III Randomized Clinical Trial," is co-authored by Dr. Ramtin Agah, RenovoRx’s Chief Medical Officer. The abstract supports RenovoRx’s proprietary Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (TAMPTM) therapy platform via additional human PK data and pre-clinical data.

TAMP is designed to ensure targeted therapeutic delivery across the arterial wall near the tumor site to bathe the target tumor, while potentially minimizing a therapy’s toxicities versus systemic intravenous therapy. RenovoRx’s novel approach to locoregional treatment offers the potential for increased safety, tolerance, and improved efficacy.

RenovoRx’s ongoing Phase III TIGeR-PaC clinical trial is evaluating the Company’s novel investigational drug-device combination product candidate, (intra-arterial delivery of gemcitabine via RenovoCath) known as IAG, utilizing the TAMP drug delivery platform in patients with Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer (LAPC). RenovoRx currently anticipates the completion of both patient enrollment and the second interim analysis for TIGeR-PaC in mid-2025. This abstract is a sub-study of the TIGeR-PaC clinical trial. The combination product candidate (IAG), which is enabled by the FDA-cleared RenovoCath device, is currently under investigation and has not been approved for commercial sale.

About RenovoCath

Based on its FDA clearance, RenovoCath is intended for the isolation of blood flow and delivery of fluids, including diagnostic and/or therapeutic agents, to selected sites in the peripheral vascular system. RenovoCath is also indicated for temporary vessel occlusion in applications including arteriography, preoperative occlusion, and chemotherapeutic drug infusion. For further information regarding our RenovoCath Instructions for Use ("IFU"), please see: IFU-10004-Rev.-F-Universal-IFU.pdf.

About the TIGeR-PaC Clinical Trial

TIGeR-PaC is an ongoing Phase III randomized multi-center study evaluating the proprietary TAMP (Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion) therapy platform for the treatment of LAPC. RenovoRx’s first investigational drug-device combination product candidate (intra-arterial delivery of gemcitabine via RenovoCath, known as IAG) using the TAMP therapy platform enabled with the Company’s FDA-cleared RenovoCath device for the intra-arterial administration of chemotherapy, gemcitabine.

The first interim analysis in the Phase III clinical trial was completed in March 2023, with the Data Monitoring Committee recommending a continuation of the study. The TIGeR-PaC study is investigating TAMP in LAPC. The study’s primary endpoint is an overall survival benefit with secondary endpoints including reduced side effects versus standard of care. The second interim analysis for this study will be triggered by the 52nd event (i.e., patient death), which is estimated to occur in the second quarter of 2025. The second interim data readout would follow thereafter, with the timing for such readout depending on customary factors such as time needed for analysis. RenovoRx is also aiming to complete patient enrollment in the TIGeR-PaC study in mid-2025.
