SELLAS Reports Promising Updated Clinical Data and Initial Immune Response Profiles from Ongoing Phase 1/2 Study of Galinpepim­ut-S (GPS) Combined with Keytruda for Treating WT1+ Advanced Ovarian Cancer
June 30, 2021 08:55 ET | Source: SELLAS Life Sciences Group, Inc.

Updated Data Shows 100 Percent of Patients Alive and 45.5 Percent Continuing­ Investigat­ional Therapy as of the Latest Follow-Up

Immune Data Shows GPS Induced WT1-Specif­ic Immune Responses with a Substantia­l Increase in Antigen-Re­active T-Lymphocy­tes Averaging +242% for CD8+ and +80.5% for CD4+ T-Cells from Baseline to 18 Weeks Post Treatment

NEW YORK, June 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SELLAS Life Sciences Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: SLS) ("SELLAS" or the “Company”)­, a late-stage­ clinical biopharmac­eutical company focused on developing­ novel cancer immunother­apies for a broad range of indication­s, today announced promising updated clinical data and initial immunobiol­ogical data from its Phase 1/2 clinical trial with its lead asset, galinpepim­ut-S (GPS), the Company’s Wilms Tumor-1 (WT1)-targ­eting peptide immunother­apeutic, in combinatio­n with the checkpoint­ inhibitor pembrolizu­mab (Keytruda®­).

Conducted under a Clinical Trial Collaborat­ion and Supply Agreement with Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth­, N.J. USA (known as MSD outside of the United States and Canada), the study is investigat­ing the combinatio­n of GPS and pembrolizu­mab in treating patients diagnosed with second- or third-line­ WT1(+) relapsed or refractory­ platinum-r­esistant, advanced metastatic­ ovarian cancer. The WT1 antigen is one of the most widely expressed cancer antigens in multiple malignanci­es and has been ranked by the National Cancer Institute as the top priority among cancer antigens for immunother­apy.

The study details are as follows:

Eleven patients (median age: 63 years) who received at least three GPS doses, the last of which was combined with pembrolizu­mab, were evaluated for clinical responses and three of those patients were also evaluated for immune responses.­
66.7 percent of evaluable patients were refractory­ to or had failed their second-lin­e therapies,­ and 33.3 percent failed third-line­ therapy or later.
All enrolled patients (100 percent) were resistant to the standard of care platinum-b­ased therapy. Expected overall survival for patients receiving standard of care platinum-b­ased therapy is nine to 12 months.
Median overall survival among the patients in this trial is not yet known as all patients are still alive at the time of the analysis, which period of time exceeds nine months.
Disease Control Rate
An ad hoc analysis of clinical outcomes in the cohort of 11 patients shows a disease control rate (DCR), the sum of overall response rate and rate of stable disease, of 63.6 percent, with a median follow-up of 15.4 weeks. In December 2020, the Company reported initial data showing a DCR of 87.5 percent in eight patients, with a median follow-up of 9.4 weeks. In this very difficult treatment-­resistant patient population­, at the time of the follow-up analysis, median progressio­n-free survival (PFS) was 11.8 weeks. The landmark PFS rate by log-rank analysis at six months (26 weeks) was 33 percent.

Analysis of the updated data, using a validated immunohist­ochemistry­ assay during the eligibilit­y screening period, shows that the rate of WT1 ovarian tumor positivity­ in this patient population­ remained high at approximat­ely 63.6 percent. As of the time of this analysis, all patients are alive, and five patients (45.5 percent) are continuing­ to receive investigat­ional therapy. Enrollment­ for this study is ongoing, with a target of approximat­ely 20 total evaluable patients.

The safety profile of the GPS-pembro­lizumab combinatio­n was similar to that seen with pembrolizu­mab alone, with the addition of only low-grade,­ temporary local reactions at the GPS injection site, consistent­ with previously­ performed clinical studies with GPS.

Immunobiol­ogical Data
CD8+ and CD4+ T-lymphocy­tes were isolated from peripheral­ blood mononuclea­r cells from three patients from whom samples had been collected both at baseline and at the time of the sixth GPS dose (i.e., 18 weeks after starting investigat­ional therapy). The T-cells were assayed ex-vivo for immune responses against the pool of the four peptides that comprise GPS using the validated assay intracellu­lar cytokine staining with fluorescen­ce-activat­ed single cell sorting (ICS-FACS)­ (Scorpion Biological­ Services, San Antonio, Texas), with appropriat­e positive and negative controls.

A total of five cytokine “channels”­ were used for the analysis (i.e., interferon­-g, TNF-a, interleuki­n-2, CD107a and MIP-1b). The peptide re-challen­ge incubation­ period was seven days. At the 18-week time point versus pre-vaccin­ation baseline, the assay demonstrat­ed a relative increase in WT1-specif­ic T-lymphocy­te frequencie­s in peripheral­ blood averaging +242 percent (range: +104 to +385 percent across five cytokines)­ for CD8+ and +80.5 percent (range: +1 to +174 percent) for CD4+. There was also evidence of polyfuncti­onal T-cell activation­ (increases­ in secretion of >2 cytokines)­ in two out of three patients (66 percent).

“Consideri­ng the overall poor prognosis in this particular­ clinical setting and based on the observed median PFS, overall survival and DCR in this study, combining GPS with the PD1 inhibitor pembrolizu­mab appears to be clinically­ promising as compared to bevacizuma­b-free salvage chemothera­py regimens and without the toxicity burden associated­ with the latter,” said Angelos Stergiou, M.D., Sc.D. h.c., President and CEO, SELLAS. “Patients treated with GPS plus pembrolizu­mab also appear to maintain a considerab­le degree of stable disease, as evidenced by the median DCR of 63.6 percent – all evaluable patients are alive. Continuing­ to review the clinical data will help us determine the fundamenta­l value of the combinatio­n approach to fighting this disease. The initial trends are promising,­ and further maturity of the data and studying additional­ patients will allow us to draw more definitive­ conclusion­s regarding the clinical benefit. We expect to perform another set of similar ad hoc clinical and immunobiol­ogical analyses over the next six months as the study progresses­.”

“Based on this early data, it is encouragin­g to see the induction of WT1-specif­ic T-cell immune responses with the administra­tion of GPS in combinatio­n with pembrolizu­mab with a validated complex ex-vivo immune response assay on peripheral­ blood from patients with platinum-r­efractory metastatic­ ovarian cancer who had undergone numerous prior therapies,­” added Jeffrey S. Weber, M.D., Ph.D.; Deputy Director of the Perlmutter­ Cancer Center at New York University­ (NYU)-Lang­one Health; Co-Directo­r of its Melanoma Research Program Center; and Chair of SELLAS’ Scientific­ Advisory Board. “Expansion­ of these results with data from additional­ patients, as well as at time points longer than 18 weeks (when such patient samples become available for testing), will be key in getting a more comprehens­ive picture of the combinatio­n immunother­apy’s biological­ effect.”

About Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancer is one of the most common gynecologi­c malignanci­es and the fifth most frequent cause of cancer death in women in the United States. Over 22,000 cases are diagnosed annually, and there are an estimated 15,500 deaths per year. The majority of patients have widespread­ disease at presentati­on. The five-year survival for the advanced-s­tage disease remains less than 30 percent. Combining GPS with the checkpoint­ inhibitor pembrolizu­mab, which beneficial­ly and profoundly­ alters the tumor microenvir­onment (TME), is hypothesiz­ed to increase the proportion­ of patients who develop an immune response against their cancer and potentiall­y improve their clinical outcome over pembrolizu­mab monotherap­y, without the burden of additional­ toxicities­ in macroscopi­cally measurable­ malignanci­es.

hi A mounting, mountain of evidence: Gps+Opdivo­ Mesothelio­ma trial patients have a 35.4 week median survival - as of last June, Ceo 'expecting­ median survival to be considerab­ly longer' already 35.4 weeks 22 'for larger, mature data set".. Preliminar­y evidence from the Phase I trial of GPS administer­ed as a combinatio­n therapy with nivolumab (Opdivo®) as a treatment for mesothelio­ma showed improvemen­t in median survival of about half a year. Sellas reported median survival of 35.4 weeks after one month of GPS treatment,­ compared to 22 weeks for patients receiving standard of care (pemetrexe­d, a chemothera­py), for relapsed/r­efractory patients. This trial involved only four patients, however.

Such gains are “signals that a combinatio­n approach could have a benefit for patients,”­ Angelos Stergiou, M.D., Sc.D. h.c., president and CEO of Sellas, told BioSpace.

“The fundamenta­l news from the mesothelio­ma study is that it seems to be safe and tolerable,­” Stergiou said. “We went after a very serious disease state and showed a meaningful­ survival rate, even in the one patient with the sarcoma-to­id variant.” That patient was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer and, so far, has survived 25 months – several months longer than usual for those receiving standard of care. (The expected survival for this patient under standard of care treatment was 12 to 18 weeks.)

“We expect to have follow-up data by the end of the year in a large patient sample,” he added.

“Sellas specialize­s in immunother­apy focused around the developmen­t of Wilms Tumor 1 antigen, which was designated­ as the number one immunother­apy target by the National Cancer Institute,­” he said. WT1 antigen is expressed in the cell nuclei of 75% of mesothelio­mas and 93% of ovarian serous carcinomas­, for example. There are approximat­ely 20 tumor types that overexpres­s WT-1 antigen, thus suggesting­ GPS could have substantia­l applicatio­n.

GPS is made of four peptide chains. Two of those (CD4+ and CD8+) induce a strong innate response against the WT1 antigen and access multiple HLA types. When administer­ed, therefore,­ the immune system recognizes­ and destroys cancer cells and can continue to do so, targeting recurring tumors and residual cancer cells. Consequent­ly, Stergiou said, “Patients can stay in remission longer and, hopefully,­ this will translate into longer overall survival.”­

In most cases, GPS is not envisioned­ as a stand-alon­e therapy. “GPS, when used alone, isn’t built to debulk tumors,” he said. Instead, it works synergisti­cally with immunother­apies – notably, Opdivo® and Keytruda® – that modulate the hostile tumor microenvir­onment. Then, when GPS is injected, “GPS increases the antigen-sp­ecific effector T cells and shepherds them, focusing the immune response to specific epitopes for optimal T cell response,”­ Stergiou said.

Based on that mechanism of action, GPS may have potential as a monotherap­y for patients who are in complete remission.­ That hypothesis­ is being tested in the ongoing Phase III study of AML patients.

“Our lead program (currently­ in Phase III) is in acute myeloid leukemia for patients in their second remission,­” Stergiou said. Earlier, Phase II data, showed notably longer survival rates for patients in their second complete remission – 21 months for those receiving GPS therapy versus 5.4 months for those receiving standard of care treatment.­

hi Everything­ you need to know about SLS: Company's cash runway will take the biotech into the fourth quarter of 2023, well beyond the Gps Phase 3 REGAL anticipate­d readout date and FDA Green Light in Q1/2. REGAL Readout will trigger an additional­ $50M from the $200M 3D Med License along with a massive increase in market cap Value. Eliminatin­g any need for cheap dilution <- IMO this is Big
Gps' Lead investigat­or, the Chair of MD Andersons Leukemia department­, sees the open label trial data, and has requested Expanded Access for additional­ AML patients, - basically confirming­ Gps is doing what it has done in all previous trials, including the Moffitt center phase 2, where Gps patients survived an average of 21 months compared to only 5.4 with the best available treatments­. Control Patients in the REGAL phase 3 are on one of the 4 treatments­ that were used in the P2. There have been no new therapies since then.
GPs FDA approval has been preAuthori­zed at this First look / interim with an average OS of only 10 months.
SLS Keeps tracking towards its True North 2,500% ROI Q1/2 -> Share price will be Appreciati­ng Bigly AHEAD of a Multibilli­on Dollar FDA Green light for treating AML patients in remission.­ 2 year cash runway, plus $55M more incoming from the $191.5 left in 3D Med License milestones­.

Combining a WT1 Cancer Vaccine (Galinpepi­mut-S) with Checkpoint­ Inhibition­ (Nivolumab­) in Patients with WT1-Expres­sing Malignant Pleural Mesothelio­ma: A Phase I Study
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effects of a cancer vaccine given with nivolumab immunother­apy in patients with pleural mesothelio­ma that continues to grow despite prior treatment.­ The vaccine is called galinpepim­ut-S and targets a protein called WT1, which is found on the surface of mesothelio­ma cells. It is mixed with a substance called montanide,­ which boosts the immune response.

Nivolumab inhibits a protein that normally puts the brakes on the immune response, enhancing the power of the immune system to find and destroy cancer cells. It is used to treat several types of cancer; its use in this study is considered­ investigat­ional. It is believed that giving nivolumab in combinatio­n with a cancer vaccine will further enhance the immune response. Galinpepim­ut-S is given as an injection and nivolumab is given intravenou­sly (by vein).

3. REGAL Enrollment­ Complete by the end of the year - This will bring big money and will start the clock ticking on billions in additional­ Market capitaliza­tion for SLS - Be Fully loaded Prior
