  • Revolutionizing Cancer Treatment: The Future of Localized Drug Delivery to Tumors with CEO, Shaun Bagai
    Nov 25 2025

    Send us a Message

    In this compelling episode of MedTech 101, host Rodney Moses sits down with RenovoRx CEO Shaun Bagai to explore the latest breakthroughs in cancer treatment. The conversation opens with a clear-eyed look at the challenges pancreatic cancer patients face, before diving into Shaun’s remarkable journey—from aspiring pre-med student to seasoned medtech leader—and the pivotal role engineering plays in redefining cancer care.

    Rodney underscores the importance of pairing technological innovation with true patient-centric thinking, setting the tone for an insightful discussion on medtech’s ability to transform lives.

    Shaun explains how RenovoRx is changing the treatment landscape through its patented localized therapy platform, designed to deliver chemotherapy directly to the tumor while reducing life-limiting systemic side effects. Their discussion highlights the development and impact of the RenovoCath catheter and the Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (TAMP) system, technologies that enable precise, targeted drug delivery and bring renewed hope for improved outcomes.

    Rodney and Shaun also touch on the contrast between the agility of startups and the slower pace of traditional medtech companies—using RenovoRx’s journey to a NASDAQ listing, without being acquired by a larger player, as a powerful example of strategic independence. The episode wraps with optimism about the future of oncology and the transformative potential of smarter drug-delivery systems.
