Current report

On June 28, 2024, we filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “June 2024 Shelf Registration Statement”) with the SEC, pursuant to which we may offer, issue and sell any combination of shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, shares of our preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, debt securities, warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock and/or debt securities, in one or more series, and units consisting of any combination of the other types of securities registered under such June 2024 Shelf Registration Statement in an aggregate amount of up to $150 million, in each case, to the public in one or more registered offerings.

Current report

The registration statement of which the ATM Prospectus Supplement forms a part expired on July 1, 2024 and we can no longer make sales under the ATM Prospectus Supplement. We may file a new prospectus supplement with respect to the ATM Sales Agreement, or with respect to a similar arrangement, in the future.

Current report

The remaining principal amount of the Avenue Loan outstanding of $2.5 million at June 30, 2024 could be converted, at Avenue’s option, into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $11.98 per share.

Current report

Avenue did not exercise its option to convert the remaining principal amount of the Avenue Loan into shares of our common stock and on August 1, 2024, we made the final payment due on the Avenue Loan. We are anticipating the release from all obligations and Avenue to return all security interests back to us.

Previous wording

We have sufficient raw material and component constituent parts of HEPZATO KIT to meet the first year of our anticipated demand and we intend to manage supply chain risk through stockpiled inventory and contracting with multiple suppliers for critical components.

Current wording

We have sufficient raw material and component constituent parts of HEPZATO KIT to meet anticipated demand and we intend to manage supply chain risk through stockpiled inventory and contracting with multiple suppliers for critical components. As of July 31, 2024, eight facilities have treated at least one patient with the HEPZATO KIT.

Previous wording

Our clinical development program for HEPZATO was comprised of the FOCUS Clinical Trial for Patients with metastatic hepatic dominant Uveal Melanoma (the “FOCUS Trial”), a global registration clinical trial that investigated objective response rate in patients with mUM. The current focus of our clinical development program is to generate clinical data for CHEMOSAT and HEPZATO in patients with mUM, either as monotherapy or in combination with immunotherapy. We expect that this will support increased clinical adoption of and reimbursement for CHEMOSAT in Europe, and to support reimbursement in various jurisdictions, including the United States. In addition to HEPZATO’s use to treat mUM, the Company believes that HEPZATO has the potential to treat cancers in the liver, such as metastatic colorectal cancer, metastatic neuroendocrine tumors, metastatic breast cancer and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and plans to begin one or more studies of HEPZATO KIT to treat such conditions in 2024. We believe that those and similar disease states are areas of unmet medical needs that represent significant market opportunities.

Current wording

Our clinical development program for HEPZATO was comprised of the FOCUS Clinical Trial for Patients with metastatic hepatic dominant Uveal Melanoma (the “FOCUS Trial”), a global registration clinical trial that investigated objective response rate in patients with mUM. The current focus of our clinical development program is to generate clinical data for CHEMOSAT and HEPZATO in patients with mUM, either as monotherapy or in combination with immunotherapy. On May 6, 2024, we announced the publication of results from our Phase 3 FOCUS Trial, including an Overall Response Rate (“ORR”) of 36.35, which included 7.7% of patients with Complete Response, as determined by an Independent Review Committee. An ORR of 36.3% in the FOCUS study was statistically significantly better than the pooled ORR estimate (a weighted mean of the observed ORR) of 5.5% in the historical control group. We expect that the publication will support increased clinical adoption of and reimbursement for CHEMOSAT in Europe, and support reimbursement in various jurisdictions, including the United States.

Previous wording

The increase in total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same periods in 2023 was due to the commercial launch of HEPZATO KIT in the U.S. along with an increase in demand for CHEMOSAT in Europe.

Current wording

The increase in total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same periods in 2023 was due to the commercial launch of HEPZATO KIT in the U.S. along with an increase in demand for CHEMOSAT in Europe.

Previous wording

Research and development expenses are incurred for the development of HEPZATO and consist primarily of payroll and payments to contract research and development companies. In 2023, these costs primarily related to generating pre-clinical data submission of the NDA and the cost of manufacturing HEPZATO for expanded access protocol sites utilizing HEPZATO KIT prior to FDA approval. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 is due to lower costs associated with NDA submission offset by an increase in medical affairs and regulatory costs associated with an approved product.

Previous wording

Interest and other income (expense) in 2024 is primarily related to the change in fair value of the Tranche B Warrants liability, interest income associated with marketable securities offset by interest expense related to our debt instruments. There was a decrease in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same periods in 2023 related to the principal loan payments made during 2023 and 2024.

At June 30, 2023, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling $14.6 million.

Previous wording

If there is a substantial delay in the activation of sites to administer HEPZATO, we expect to need to raise additional capital under structures available to us, including debt and/or equity offerings, which may not be on terms favorable to us. In a substantially delayed site activation scenario, we will not have sufficient funds to meet our obligations within twelve months from the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements. As such, there is uncertainty regarding our ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate our business effectively, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Current wording

If there is a substantial delay in the activation of additional sites to administer HEPZATO and/or the revenue generated from HEPZATO and CHEMOSAT is less than anticipated, we expect to need to raise additional capital under structures available to us, including debt and/or equity offerings, which may not be on terms favorable to us. In a substantially delayed site activation scenario, we will not have sufficient funds to meet our obligations within twelve months from the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements. As such, there is uncertainty regarding our ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate our business effectively, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
