RNXT RenovoRx Inc

RenovoRx, Inc. (“RenovoRx” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: RNXT), a life sciences company developing novel targeted oncology therapies and commercializing RenovoCath®, a novel, FDA-cleared delivery platform, today announced that it will host an investor fireside chat on Tuesday, December 17, 2024, at 4:30 p.m. ET with Shaun Bagai, Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Bagai will discuss 2024 corporate achievements, including completed milestones, the future of RenovoRx’s previously announced commercialization strategy for its innovative RenovoCath delivery system and the recent addition of global medical device commercial leader, Richard Stark, as Commercial Advisor.

He will also provide an update on RenovoRx’s ongoing pivotal Phase III TIGeR-PaC clinical trial. TIGeR-PaC is evaluating the Company’s proprietary TAMP™ (Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion) therapy platform for the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC). RenovoRx’s first product candidate using TAMP technology, is a novel investigational oncology drug-device combination utilizing the RenovoCath delivery system for the intra-arterial administration of chemotherapy, gemcitabine. RenovoRx is expecting important milestones for the TIGeR-PaC trial in 2025, including the anticipated second interim data readout and completion of patient enrollment in the study.

All interested parties are welcome to participate in this event.

About RenovoCathBased 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.

The RenovoCath® Device

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 locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC). RenovoRx’s first product candidate using the TAMP technology, is a novel investigational oncology drug-device combination utilizing 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 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 late 2024 or early 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 the first half of 2025.

About RenovoRx, Inc.RenovoRx is a life sciences company developing novel targeted oncology therapies and commercializing RenovoCath®, a novel, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared local drug-delivery platform, targeting high unmet medical needs. RenovoRx’s patented Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (TAMP™) therapy platform is designed to ensure precise 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 targeted treatment offers the potential for increased safety, tolerance, and improved efficacy, and its mission is to transform the lives of cancer patients by providing innovative solutions to enable targeted delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic agents.

The Company’s Phase III lead product candidate is a novel oncology drug-device combination product. It is being investigated under a U.S. investigational new drug application that is regulated by the FDA’s 21 CFR 312 pathway. The investigational drug-device combination candidate utilizes RenovoCath®, the Company’s FDA-cleared drug-delivery device, indicated for temporary vessel occlusion in applications including arteriography, preoperative occlusion, and chemotherapeutic drug infusion. The intra-arterial infusion of chemotherapy gemcitabine utilizing the RenovoCath catheter is currently being evaluated for the treatment of LAPC by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (the drug division of FDA).

The intra-arterial infusion of gemcitabine by the RenovoCath catheter is currently under investigation and has not been approved for commercial sale. RenovoCath with gemcitabine received Orphan Drug Designation for pancreatic cancer and bile duct cancer, which provides 7 years of market exclusivity upon NDA approval by the FDA.

RenovoRx is also actively exploring other commercialization strategies utilizing its TAMP technology and FDA-cleared RenovoCath delivery system as a stand-alone device.
