2025 Full Year Total Revenue Guidance of $94 to $98 million
Delcath Announces Plan to Enter into National Medicaid Drug Rebate Agreement
Delcath Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:DCTH) ("Delcath" or the "Company"), an interventional oncology company focused on the treatment of primary and metastatic liver cancers, today announced full year 2025 financial guidance and its intention to enter into a Medicaid National Drug Rebate Agreement (NDRA) to expand patient access.
2025 Full Year Financial Guidance
The Company's financial outlook for fiscal year 2025 is as follows:
- Total CHEMOSAT and HEPZATO KIT revenue of $94 to $98 million, an increase of more than 150% over 2024
- Gross margins between 83% to 85%
- Positive adjusted EBITDA and cashflow in each quarter of 2025
National Medicaid Drug Rebate Agreement
Delcath will participate in the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program, which entails providing Medicaid rebates and 340B discounts to eligible entities. The Company has initiated the process of entering into the NDRA with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and expects it to take effect at the beginning of the third quarter of 2025.
"Our decision to enter into the NDRA simplifies Medicaid access and enables eligible hospitals to access 340B drug pricing. We believe this will expand treatment availability and accelerate adoption of HEPZATO in the United States," said Gerard Michel, Chief Executive Officer of Delcath. "Based on current center activation rates and rising utilization, we expect total HEPZATO treatment volume in 2025 to increase at least 200% versus 2024."
About Delcath Systems, Inc., HEPZATO KIT and CHEMOSAT
Delcath Systems, Inc. is an interventional oncology company focused on the treatment of primary and metastatic liver cancers. The company's proprietary products, HEPZATO KIT™ (HEPZATO (melphalan) for Injection/Hepatic Delivery System) and CHEMOSAT® Hepatic Delivery System for Melphalan percutaneous hepatic perfusion (PHP), are designed to administer high-dose chemotherapy to the liver while controlling systemic exposure and associated side effects during a PHP procedure.
In the United States, HEPZATO KIT is considered a combination drug and device product and is regulated and approved for sale as a drug by the FDA. HEPZATO KIT is comprised of the chemotherapeutic drug melphalan and Delcath's proprietary Hepatic Delivery System (HDS). The HDS is used to isolate the hepatic venous blood from the systemic circulation while simultaneously filtrating hepatic venous blood during melphalan infusion and washout. The use of the HDS results in loco-regional delivery of a relatively high melphalan dose, which can potentially induce a clinically meaningful tumor response with minimal hepatotoxicity and reduce systemic exposure. HEPZATO KIT is approved in the United States as a liver-directed treatment for adult patients with metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM) with unresectable hepatic metastases affecting less than 50% of the liver and no extrahepatic disease, or extrahepatic disease limited to the bone, lymph nodes, subcutaneous tissues, or lung that is amenable to resection or radiation. Please see the full Prescribing Information, including BOXED WARNING for the HEPZATO KIT.
In Europe, the device-only configuration of the HDS is regulated as a Class III medical device and is approved for sale under the trade name CHEMOSAT Hepatic Delivery System for Melphalan, or CHEMOSAT, where it has been used in the conduct of percutaneous hepatic perfusion procedures at major medical centers to treat a wide range of cancers of the liver.
