Abstract CT138: Preliminary delayed-type-hypersensitivity immune response results from open-label arm of on-going Phase III study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GLSI-100 (GP2 + GM-CSF) in breast cancer patients with residual disease or high-r

Abstract Background: This Phase III trial is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, multi-center study (NCT05232916) in HLA-A*02 patients at approximately 140 sites in the US and Europe. A third non-randomized arm of approximately 250 non-HLA-A*02 patients is now fully enrolled and preliminary immune response data is presented below. GP2 is a biologic nine amino acid peptide of the HER2/neu protein delivered in combination with Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) that stimulates an immune response targeting HER2/neu expressing cancers, the combination known as GLSI-100. Methods: After standard of care neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy, 6 intradermal injections of GLSI-100 will be administered over the first 6 months and 5 subsequent boosters will be administered over the next 2.5 years. The participant duration of the trial will be 3 years treatment plus 1 additional year follow-up. Immune responses to GP2 were measured over time using delayed-type-hypersensitivity (DTH) skin tests and injection site reactions (ISRs). The patient population is defined by these key eligibility criteria: 1) HER2/neu positive and HLA, 2) Residual disease or High risk pCR (Stage III at presentation) post neo-adjuvant therapy, 3) Exclude Stage IV, and 4) Completed at least 90% of planned trastuzumab-based therapy. Results: All patients (n=247) were vaccinated with GLSI-100 and continue in treatment and follow-up. A DTH reaction (redness) was used to assess in vivo immune responses in patients. The DTH orthogonal mean was measured 48-72 hours after injection. In this preliminary data analysis, there was a significant increase in percentage of subjects experiencing a DTH reaction in month 4 or month 6 compared to baseline. The frequency of DTH reactions increased by approximately 4x from 5.2% of the patients experiencing a DTH reaction at baseline, prior to any GLSI-100 administration, to 20.4% of the patients experiencing a DTH reaction in month 4 or month 6 (McNemar, p < 0.001). The study is ongoing and data collection and cleaning continue so final results may vary. Conclusions: The increase in the incidence of DTH reactions over time found in this preliminary analysis of GLSI-100 treated non-HLA-A*02 patients shows that GLSI-100 treatment should not be limited to the HLA-A*02 genotype. Subjects treated with GLSI-100 were increasingly able to mount an immune response to GP2 as evidenced in this preliminary data. Future investigations may explore the use of immune responses to assess: correlation of DTH to ISRs, immunogenicity of GLSI-100 by specific HLA type, timing of boosters to sustain immunity, clinical site performance, and the discontinuation of treatment for non-responders.
