About Delcath Systems A specialty pharmaceutical and medical device oncology company with a principal therapeutic focus on the treatment of primary liver cancer and other cancers that have metastasized to the liver Proprietary system isolates the liver from circulation, delivers a substantially
higher concentration of chemotherapy (melphalan) compared with systemic
doses, and filters most of the chemotherapy out of the blood prior to returning
it to the patient
In late-stage clinical development in the U.S. with initial commercial activities
underway in Europe Initially pursuing orphan indications in metastatic ocular melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) Seeking to Make a Clinically Meaningful Difference For Cancer Patients With Liver Dominant Disease |

Liver: A Life-Limiting Organ
Cancers of the liver remain a major unmet medical need
o Large global patient population approximately 1.2 million* patients diagnosed annually with primary or metastatic liver cancer o The liver is often the life-limiting organ for cancer patients and one of the
leading causes of cancer death
o Prognosis after liver involvement is poor, with overall survival generally less than 12 months CHEMOSAT ® Melphalan/HDS is a proprietary product uniquely positioned to potentially treat the entire liver as a standalone or complementary therapy * SOURCE 2008 GLOBOCAN Effective Liver Cancer Treatment Remains a Major Unmet Medical Need |
7DELCATH SYSTEMS, INC
Concentrating the Power of Chemotherapy for Disease Control in the Liver
Our Solution: Whole Organ-Focus Disease Control
Our proprietary system isolates the liver circulation, delivers a high concentration of chemotherapy (melphalan) and filters most of the chemotherapy out of the blood prior to returning it to the patient The procedure typically takes approximately 2-3 hours to complete and involves a team including the interventional radiologist and perfusionist We believe more than 200 treatments with improved device and procedure in the U.S. and EU provide confidence safety can be validated in a controlled setting |

Existing Liver Cancer Treatments Landscape
Existing Liver Cancer Treatments Have Limitations
Treatment Advantages Disadvantages Systemic Non-invasive Repeatable Systemic toxicities Limited efficacy in liver Regional (e.g., Isolated Hepatic Perfusion) Therapeutic effect Targeted Invasive/limited repeatability Multiple treatments are required but not possible Focal (e.g., surgery, radioembolization, chemoembolization, radiofrequency ablation) Partial removal or treatment of tumors Only 10%-20% are resectable Invasive and/or limited repeatability Treatment is limited by tumor size, number of lesions and location Tumor revascularization Cannot treat diffuse disease |

Melphalan Hepatic Delivery System (HDS)
Device designed to administer high-dose chemotherapy to the liver while reducing
systemic exposure
Marketed as Delcath Hepatic CHEMOSAT ® Delivery System (device only) in EU Investigational drug/device combination product regulated as a drug in the U.S. Liver Isolated Via Double Balloon Catheter In IVC Melphalan Infused Directly Into Liver Via Catheter In Hepatic Artery Blood Exiting The Liver Filtered By Proprietary Extra-corporeal Filters More Than 300 Patients Treated To Date |
10DELCATH SYSTEMS, INC
Melphalan Dosing & Background
Well-understood, dose-dependent, tumor-preferential, alkylating cytotoxic agent
that demonstrates little to no hepatic toxicity
Dose administered directly to liver is substantially higher than that of systemic IV
chemotherapy Melphalan, an established chemotherapy agent, is proven active at high doses with broad antitumor activity Type Dosing (mg/kg) Multiple Myeloma (label) 0.25 Chemoembolization 0.62 Surgical Isolated Hepatic Perfusion (IHP) 1.50 Myeloablation 2.50-3.50 Chemosaturation (PHP) 3.00 An Established Drug for Liver Cancer Therapy |

Risks Observed in Previous Clinical Program
Risks observed with prior product and procedure protocol Integrated safety population of patients showed risks associated with melphalan/HDS included: o 4.1% incidence of death due to adverse reactions o 4% incidence of stroke o 2% reported incidence of myocardial infarction in the setting of an incomplete cardiac
risk assessment o 70% incidence of grade 4 bone marrow suppression with a median time of recovery
of greater than 1 week
o 18% incidence of febrile neutropenia, along with the additive risk of hepatic injury,
severe hemorrhage and gastrointestinal perforation

Recent Data Presentations -
ASCO 2015 Analysis of 20 patients who received 34 treatments at Southampton University Hospital o Eleven patients remain alive after a median of 280 days with one complete response ongoing at >1 year o From the diagnosis of liver metastases, 11 patients (55%) survived to one year and
3 (15%) for >2 years; no procedure related deaths were seen
o 2 patients (10%) demonstrated stable disease for >3 months, 13 patients (65%)
had a partial response, 2 patients (10%) demonstrated complete response
o Nine deaths from disease progression occurred after a median of 264 days from the first procedure Adverse Events o Early AEs often expected with percutaneous hepatic perfusion (PHP) were observed including coagulopathy, electrolyte disturbances and transient transaminases (elevated liver enzymes). Rare late AEs (1 patient each) included hair loss, skin rash, myelosuppression and persistent transaminases (elevated liver enzymes) o AEs seen were grade 1 (n=12), 2 (n=13), 3 (n=5) and 4 (n=1) o Grade 4 complication was pulmonary edema due to fluid overload |
23DELCATH SYSTEMS, INC
Recent Data Presentations -
SSO 2015 Moffitt Cancer Center (Tampa, FL) o Retrospective analysis of 30 patients with ocular or cutaneous melanoma treated with Melphalan/HDS (n=10), chemoembolization (CE, n=12), and yttrium-90 (Y90, n=6) o Study showed significant difference in hepatic progression free survival (HPFS) for
Melphalan/HDS (310 days), CE (80 days), Y-90 (54 days)
o Median overall survival (OS) longest for Melphalan/HDS (736 days) vs Y90 (285 days) CE (265 days), but did not reach statistical significance o Authors concluded that HPFS and progression free survival (PFS) were significantly prolonged with Melphalan/HDS vs CE and Y90 |
