Evaluating GLSI-100 immunotherapy for HER2 positive breast cancer

A Randomized, Multicenter, Placebo-controlled, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of HER2/Neu Peptide GLSI-100 (GP2 + GM-CSF) in HER2/Neu Positive Subjects With Residual Disease or High-Risk PCR After Both Neoadjuvant and Postoperative Adjuvant Trastuzumab-based Therapy (FLAMINGO-01)

PHASE3 · Greenwich LifeSciences, Inc. · NCT05232916

This study is testing a new immunotherapy called GLSI-100 to see if it can help prevent breast cancer from coming back in patients who are at high risk and have HER2 positive breast cancer.

What this trial studies

This Phase 3 study investigates the efficacy and safety of GLSI-100, an immunotherapy, in patients with HER2/neu positive breast cancer who are at high risk for recurrence. Participants will receive a series of intradermal injections of GLSI-100 or a placebo after completing standard neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies. The study includes a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled design and also features an open-label arm for non-HLA-A*02 positive subjects. The goal is to assess the treatment's impact on disease recurrence in this high-risk population.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are HLA-A*02 positive individuals with a confirmed diagnosis of HER2/neu positive breast cancer who have completed standard therapies and have residual disease.

Not a fit: Patients without HER2/neu positive breast cancer or those who do not meet the HLA-A*02 positive criteria may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence in patients with HER2/neu positive tumors.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with immunotherapy approaches in similar patient populations, indicating potential for success in this novel application.

Inclusion Criteria:

* HLA-A\*02-positive, unless being enrolled in the third non-HLA-A\*02 arm

* The subject can begin study therapy within one year of completion of adjuvant trastuzumab-based therapy and any other standard therapies, but, study therapy can be administered concurrently with endocrine therapy.
* No clinical evidence of residual or persistent breast cancer per treating physician assessment
* ECOG 0-2
* Adequate organ function
* Negative pregnancy test or evidence of post-menopausal status

* Active infection
* Known HIV infection with a detectable viral load within 6 months of the anticipated start of treatment. Note: Subjects on effective antiretroviral therapy with an undetectable viral load within 6 months of the anticipated start of treatment are eligible for this trial.
