Standard treatments for pancreatic cancer are often ineffective as they cannot be directly delivered to the tumor.
A promising potential new option for targeted treatment is being studied in a clinical trial intended to investigate its effect on reducing the chances of the cancer spreading and extending survival, while improving quality of life.
TAMP therapy utilizes RenovoRx’s proprietary platform technology designed to deliver well-established chemotherapeutic agents for localized treatment of solid cancer tumors, to increase survival and improve quality of life. This drug delivery technology enables TAMP to isolate the anatomy and micro-perfuse targeted tissue with small molecule chemotherapy.
The TIGeR-PaC clinical trial is a randomized study of intra-arterial gemcitabine utilizing the TAMP procedure and is enrolling newly-diagnosed, unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer patients. In one clinical study gemcitabine delivered directly via the pancreatic arteries using TAMP was associated with more than half the patients living over two years.*
