Leading Expert on Targeted Drug-Delivery and Locoregional Cancer Therapies Strengthens RenovoRx’s Scientific Advisory Board October 09, 2025 08:30 ET | Source: RenovoRx, Inc. LOS ALTOS, Calif., Oct. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RenovoRx, Inc. (“RenovoRx” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: RNXT), a life sciences company developing innovative targeted oncology therapies and commercializing RenovoCath®, a novel, FDA-cleared drug-delivery device, today announced the appointment of renowned interventional oncologist Thierry de Baère, MD, PhD to RenovoRx’s Scientific Advisory Board (SAB). Professor de Baère’s expertise is directly relevant to RenovoRx’s Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (TAMP™) therapy platform which is enabled by RenovoCath. This patented technology is designed to optimize targeted drug-delivery of therapeutic agents. Professor de Baère is Head of the Interventional Radiology Unit at Gustave Roussy Cancer Centre and University Paris-Saclay in Paris, France, and Head of Interventional Radiology at Gustave Roussy Cancer Center, Villejuif, France. His clinical work focuses on minimally invasive therapy such as ablation, intra-tumoral immunotherapy, intra-arterial chemotherapy, and combination therapies for the treatment of lung, kidney, liver and additional gastrointestinal cancers. Professor de Baère has over 400 peer reviewed publications with more than 22,000 citations in scientific publications. He has served on over 15 scientific committees and was formerly the Chairperson of the CIRSE Standard of Practice Committee and the ECIO Program Committee. His distinguished career has led to awards including the 2019 CIRSE Gold Medal, a distinction given to only one medical doctor per annum, the 2016 Josef Rosch Lecturer, and the 2020 CIRSE Innovation Award. “Professor de Baère is an internationally recognized clinical expert and researcher who has made pioneering contributions to the field of interventional oncology, and we are honored to have him join our SAB,” said Ramtin Agah, MD, Chief Medical Officer and Founder of RenovoRx. “His extensive knowledge and experience with locoregional cancer therapies will be vital as we advance TAMP, enabled by RenovoCath, that aims to improve patient outcomes in difficult-to-treat tumors and also as we explore additional commercial opportunities for our technology.” Professor de Baère stated, “Delivering chemotherapy or other therapeutic agents with TAMP via RenovoCath has the potential to meaningfully impact patient lives. It is a privilege to join the rest of the distinguished SAB, and I look forward to contributing to RenovoRx’s programs.” About RenovoRx, Inc.RenovoRx, Inc. (Nasdaq: RNXT) is a life sciences company developing innovative targeted oncology therapies and commercializing RenovoCath®, a novel, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared local drug-delivery device, targeting high unmet medical needs. RenovoRx’s patented Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (TAMP™) therapy platform is designed for 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 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. In addition to the RenovoCath device, RenovoRx is also evaluating its novel drug-device combination oncology product candidate (intra-arterial gemcitabine delivered via RenovoCath, known as IAG) in the ongoing Phase III TIGeR-PaC trial. IAG is being evaluated by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (the drug division of the FDA) under a U.S. investigational new drug application that is regulated by the FDA’s 21 CFR 312 pathway. IAG utilizes RenovoCath, the Company’s patented, FDA-cleared drug-delivery device, indicated for temporary vessel occlusion in applications including arteriography, preoperative occlusion, and chemotherapeutic drug infusion. The combination product candidate, which is enabled by the RenovoCath device, 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 seven years of market exclusivity upon new drug application approval by the FDA. RenovoRx is also actively commercializing its TAMP technology and FDA-cleared RenovoCath as a stand-alone device. In December 2024, RenovoRx announced the receipt of its first commercial purchase orders for RenovoCath devices. Additionally, several of these customers have already initiated repeat orders in parallel to RenovoRx expanding the number of medical institutions initiating new RenovoCath orders, including several esteemed, high-volume National Cancer Institute-designated centers. To meet and satisfy the anticipated demand, RenovoRx will continue to actively explore further revenue-generating activity, either on its own or in tandem with a medical device commercial partner.
