Delcath Systems (DCTH) announced the publication of a narrative review by leading interventional radiologists and oncologists from multiple institutions. The review, titled “Treatment of Liver Metastases from Uveal Melanoma with Percutaneous Hepatic Perfusion,” was published in the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology and provides an overview of percutaneous hepatic perfusion with melphalan using Delcath’s Hepzato Kit.

Quality of life data showing no long-term decline, with scores returning to baseline by Day 28 post-procedure. Ongoing research into immunotherapy combinations and expansion to other metastatic cancers like breast and colorectal
