This prospectus relates to the offer and resale, from time to time, by the selling stockholders named under the heading “Selling Stockholders” in this prospectus, or their assigns (the “Selling Stockholders”), of 1,918,140 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), which consist of (i) 1,806,427 shares of Common Stock, (ii) 77,641 shares of Common Stock (the “PIPE Warrant Shares” and together with the 1,806,427 Shares, the “PIPE Securities”) issuable upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants (the “PIPE Warrants”) held by certain Selling Stockholders, and (iii) 34,072 shares of Common Stock that were issued upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “Avenue Amendment Warrants”) previously issued by the Company pursuant to an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of March 31, 2023 (the “Amended Avenue Agreement”) with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P. (“Avenue”), all of which were exercised. We are registering the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities to satisfy the registration rights they were granted pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on March 14, 2024 in connection with the securities purchase agreement entered into on March 14, 2024. We are registering the offer and sale of the shares of Common Stock outstanding upon exercise of the Avenue Amendment Warrants to satisfy the registration rights that were granted pursuant to the Amended Avenue Agreement. While we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the Selling Stockholders, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of any PIPE Warrants for cash.

Our registration of the Shares covered by this prospectus does not mean that the Selling Stockholders will offer or sell any such Shares. The Selling Stockholders may sell Shares covered by this prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices. For additional information on the possible methods of sale that may be used by the Selling Stockholders, you should refer to the section of this prospectus entitled “Plan of Distribution.” The Selling Stockholders may, individually but not severally, be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of the Shares that they are offering pursuant to this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their respective sales of Common Stock hereunder. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the Common Stock. We will not be paying any underwriting discounts or commissions in this offering.

A prospectus supplement may add, update, or change information contained in this prospectus. You should carefully read this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement, and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement before you make your investment decision.

Our Common Stock is traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “DCTH.” On April 26, 2024, the closing price for our Common Stock, as reported on The Nasdaq Capital Market, was $5.30 per share. Our common stock outstanding as of April 24, 2024 was 27,784,384. Our principal executive offices are located at 566 Queensbury Avenue, Queensbury, NY 12804.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus may be supplemented from time to time by one or more prospectus supplements. Such prospectus supplements may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus.

You should carefully read both this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement together with additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information” before deciding to invest in any Common Stock being offered.

Neither we nor the Selling Stockholders have authorized anyone to provide any information other than that contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus or in any applicable prospectus supplement or any applicable free writing prospectus that we have authorized. We take no responsibility for and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our Common Stock, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties discussed in this section and under the sections titled Risk Factors contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended subsequent to our filing of such Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as any amendments or updates to our risk factors reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus, together with other information in this prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference, any prospectus supplement and any free writing prospectus that we may authorize. These risks and uncertainties are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently view as immaterial, may also impair our business. If any of the risks or uncertainties described in our SEC filings or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the section titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference herein, contain, or will contain, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “intends,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “indicates,” “plans,” “expects,” “suggests,” “may,” “would,” “should,” “potential,” “designed to,” “will,” “ongoing,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “predict,” “could,” and similar references, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. These statements are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Risks that could cause actual results to vary from expected results expressed in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements are made. Except as required under the federal securities laws and rules and regulations of the SEC, we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking information. We caution you not to unduly rely on the forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented herein.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares covered by this prospectus, except with respect to amounts received by us due to the exercise of any PIPE Warrants for cash. We intend to use the proceeds from the exercise of any PIPE Warrants for cash for working capital and general corporate purposes.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The Common Stock being offered by the Selling Stockholders are those previously issued to the Selling Stockholders, and those issuable to the Selling Stockholders, upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuances of those shares of Common Stock and PIPE Warrants, see “Prospectus Summary—Private Placement” and “Prospectus Supplement - Term Loan from Avenue” above. We are registering the Shares in order to permit the Selling Stockholders to offer such shares for resale from time to time.

The table below lists the Selling Stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Common Stock by each of the Selling Stockholders. When we refer to the Selling Stockholders in this prospectus, we are referring to those named below as the Selling Stockholders and, as applicable, any donees, pledgees, assignees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling the Securities received after the date of this prospectus from the Selling Stockholders as a gift, pledge, or other non-sale related transfer.

The second column lists the number of Common Stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder, based on its ownership of the Common Stock and the PIPE Warrants, as of April 24, 2024, assuming exercise of the PIPE Warrants held by the Selling Stockholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercises.

The third column lists the Common Stock being offered by this prospectus by the Selling Stockholders.

This prospectus generally covers the resale of (A) the sum of (i) the number of Shares issued in the Private Placement and (ii) all PIPE Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the PIPE Warrants issued in the Private Placement and (B) the shares of Common Stock underlying the Avenue Amendment Warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares of Common Stock offered by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.

In accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we are required to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep this registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date that all the PIPE Securities covered by this registration statement (i) have been sold, hereunder or pursuant to Rule 144, or (ii) may be sold without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement for us to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144. In accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, we are required to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep this registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date that all of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Avenue Amendment Warrants have been sold thereunder or pursuant to Rule 144.

Under the terms of the PIPE Warrants, a selling stockholder may not exercise the PIPE Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such selling stockholder, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of Common Stock which would exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of our then outstanding Common Stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination Common Stock issuable upon

9

exercise of the PIPE Warrants which have not been exercised. The number of shares in the second column does not reflect this limitation. The Selling Stockholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”

Relationship with Selling Stockholders

On April 8, 2020, we entered into a Board Appointment Agreement, dated as of April 8, 2020, with Rosalind Opportunities Fund I L.P. and Rosalind Maser Fund L.P. (collectively, “Rosalind”), pursuant to which Steven Salamon and Gil Aharon, who are principals of Rosalind, have been appointed as directors of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Certain shares of Common Stock registered for resale hereunder are also held by:

David Hoffman, who is the General Counsel, Corporate Secretary & Chief Compliance Officer of the Company;

Other than the relationships described above, none of the Selling Stockholders has had a material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates within the past three years, other than as a result of the ownership of our shares of Common Stock or other securities.

12

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each Selling Stockholder, or the Selling Stockholders, of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the principal trading market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but except as set forth in a supplements to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholder may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

13

We are required to pay certain fees and expenses that we incur incident to the registration of the Securities covered by this prospectus. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date that all the Securities being offered by the Selling Stockholders (i) have been sold pursuant to this registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144, or (ii) may be sold without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement for us to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144. The Securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

The following table sets forth various expenses being borne by the Company in connection with the sale and distribution of the securities being registered. All of the amounts shown are estimates except for the Securities and Exchange Commission Registration Fee.

The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 102(b)(7) of Delaware’s General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) allows a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation will not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached the duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides for this limitation of liability.

Section 145 of the DGCL, or Section 145, provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was, is or is threatened to be made, party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, were or are a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests, provided that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer, director, employee or agent is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses which such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.

Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify him under Section 145.

II-1

Article SEVENTH of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that no person serving as a director of the Company shall be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of the DGCL or obtained an improper personal benefit.

Article EIGHTH of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires the Company to indemnify any person who may be indemnified by a Delaware corporation pursuant to Section 145 of the DGCL in each situation where the Company is permitted to indemnify such persons.

The indemnification rights set forth above shall not be exclusive of any other right which an indemnified person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

In addition, we maintain standard policies of insurance that provide coverage (1) to our directors and officers against loss rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act and (2) to us with respect to indemnification payments that we may make to such directors and officers.

A list of exhibits filed with this registration statement on Form S-3 is set forth on the Exhibit Index and is incorporated herein by reference.

II-2

The Registrant hereby undertakes:

(a)

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement.

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

II-3

provided, however, that paragraphs a(i), a(ii) and a(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(l)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date;

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Exhibit 5.1

Delcath Systems, Inc.

566 Queensbury Avenue,

Queensbury, New York 12804

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Delcath Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the filing by the Company of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including a related prospectus included in the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”), covering the registration for resale of up to 1,918,140 shares the (“PIPE Shares”) of the common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), of the Company consisting of (a) 1,806,427 outstanding shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated as of March 14, 2024, (b) up to 77,641 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”) issuable upon exercise of outstanding pre-funded warrants (the “Warrants”) issued by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and (c) 34,072 shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “LSA Shares” and, together with the PIPE Shares, the “Shares”) issued by the Company pursuant to an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of March 31, 2023.

In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Purchase Agreement, the Warrants, the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, each as currently in effect, and such other records, documents, opinions, certificates, memoranda and instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below. We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as copies, the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of certificates of public officials and the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by all persons other than the Company where authorization, execution and delivery are prerequisites to the effectiveness thereof. As to certain factual matters, we have relied upon a certificate of an officer of the Company and have not independently verified such matters.

Our opinion is expressed only with respect to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. We express no opinion to the extent that any other laws are applicable to the subject matter hereof and express no opinion and provide no assurance as to compliance with any federal or state antifraud law, rule or regulation relating to securities or to the sale or issuance thereof.

With respect to the Warrant Shares, we express no opinion to the extent that future issuances of securities of the Company, adjustments to outstanding securities of the Company or other matters cause the Warrants to be exercisable for more shares of Common Stock than the number available for issuance by the Company. Further, we have assumed that the exercise price of the Warrants will not be adjusted to an amount below the par value per share of the Common Stock.

On the basis of the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, we are of the opinion that (i) the Shares are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and (ii) the Warrant Shares, when issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

Our opinion is limited to the matters expressly set forth in this letter, and no opinion should be implied, or may be inferred, beyond the matters expressly stated. This opinion speaks only as to law and facts in effect or existing as of the date hereof, and we have no obligation or responsibility to update or supplement this letter to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or any changes in law that may hereafter occur.

We hereby consent to the reference to our firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus and to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Very truly yours,
