Delcath Systems, Inc. (DCTH) approved to sell “In Europe, and we continue to make steady progress with the commercialization of CHEMOSAT.

“During the first three months of 2017 we continued to advance our clinical development programs in ocular melanoma liver metastases and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, while making steady progress with commercialization of CHEMOSAT in Europe,” said Jennifer K. Simpson, Ph.D., MSN, CRNP President and CEO of Delcath.

“As we announced recently, we have concluded a new SPA agreement with the FDA for the initiation of a pivotal trial for the use of Melphalan/HDS in patients with ICC. This new trial will enroll approximately 295 ICC patients at about 40 clinical sites in the U.S. and Europe, with the primary endpoint of overall survival and with secondary and exploratory endpoints that include safety, progression-free survival, objective response rate and quality-of-life measures.

The trial is designed to be cost-effective and conducted in a financially prudent manner, with modest investment in this fiscal year. In conjunction with the FOCUS Trial in ocular melanoma liver metastases, our clinical development programs now include two paths toward potential U.S. market approvals.

“In Europe, we continue to make steady progress with the commercialization of CHEMOSAT. Our first quarter revenue of more than $0.7 million was double the prior year period’s sales, driven primarily by national reimbursement in Germany under the ZE system. With coverage under the ZE system now in place, we expect product sales growth from this market for the remainder of 2017. Elsewhere in Europe, we continue to focus on building the clinical and pharmacoeconomic data to support reimbursement applications in other key markets. We expect that positive negotiations for coverage in Germany will support our efforts for payment levels in other markets such as the U.K. and the Netherlands. Securing reimbursement coverage in additional European markets remains critical to future revenue growth for CHEMOSAT,” concluded Dr. Simpson.
