Reported updated results from 12 patients with type 1 diabetes treated with tegoprubart following islet transplantation in UChicago Medicine-led study

Presented 24-month follow-up data from Phase 1b long-term extension study which continues to support the favorable safety and tolerability profile of tegoprubart

Tegoprubart granted Orphan Drug designation by the FDA for the prevention of allograft rejection in liver transplantation

IRVINE, Calif., March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Eledon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Eledon”) (Nasdaq: ELDN) today reported its fourth quarter and full year 2025 operating and financial results and reviewed recent business highlights.

“Over the past year, Eledon has made significant progress advancing tegoprubart, our anti-CD40L antibody, as a potential next-generation immunosuppressive therapy across multiple transplantation settings,” said David-Alexandre C. Gros, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Eledon. “The over 100 patients treated across our transplantation programs to date provide a growing body of evidence that reinforces our conviction that tegoprubart can address key safety and efficacy issues with current standard-of-care transplant immunosuppression. Looking ahead, we anticipate multiple important milestones this year, including regulatory engagement to support advancement into Phase 3 development in kidney transplantation, initiation of an additional islet transplantation trial in type 1 diabetes, and the start of a clinical trial in liver transplantation.”

Fourth Quarter 2025 and Recent Corporate Developments

Announced that tegoprubart has been granted Orphan Drug designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the prevention of allograft rejection in liver transplantation. Tegoprubart previously received Orphan Drug designation from the FDA for the prevention of allograft rejection in pancreatic islet cell transplantation and for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Presented 24-month follow-up data from eight patients enrolled in the Phase 1b long-term extension trial evaluating tegoprubart in kidney transplantation at the American Society of Transplant Surgeons Winter Symposium. The data continue to support the favorable safety and tolerability profile of tegoprubart with no episodes of biopsy-proven acute rejection, graft loss, death, new-onset diabetes mellitus, or de novo donor-specific antibody formation reported during the study period. Mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) increased over the measurement period, from 67.0 mL/min/1.73 m² at 12 months to 74.2 mL/min/1.73 m² at 24 months.
Reported updated results from 12 patients with type 1 diabetes treated with tegoprubart as the core immunosuppressant following islet transplantation in an investigator-initiated trial conducted at the University of Chicago Medicine Transplant Institute. All 10 patients who were more than four weeks post-transplant achieved 100% insulin independence and a most recent hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) below 6.0%, with a mean most recent HbA1c across the 10 patients of approximately 5.35%. Tegoprubart-based immunosuppression was generally well tolerated with reported post-transplant immunosuppression-related adverse events successfully treated by lowering the mycophenolic acid dose, if necessary. There were no rejection episodes, and no patients developed de novo donor-specific HLA antibodies. Additionally, no evidence of nephrotoxicity, hypertension or neurotoxicity, which are commonly associated with tacrolimus-based immunosuppression regimens, was observed. The study continues to generate significant patient demand with inquiries received from several hundred T1D patients.

Anticipated Upcoming Milestones

Receive FDA guidance on the Phase 3 trial design assessing tegoprubart in kidney transplantation, followed by initiation of the Phase 3 trial pending regulatory alignment.
Report long-term data from Phase 1 and Phase 2 BESTOW studies evaluating tegoprubart in kidney transplantation.
Receive FDA regulatory guidance on path to market for tegoprubart in islet cell transplantation and xenotransplantation.
Initiate an investigator-led study evaluating tegoprubart for the prevention of organ rejection in patients with renal dysfunction receiving an islet cell transplant.
Initiate an investigator-led study evaluating tegoprubart for the prevention of organ rejection in patients receiving a de novo liver transplant.
Initiate an investigator-led study evaluating tegoprubart for kidney transplant tolerance induction.

Full Year 2025 Financial Results

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $66.3 million, including $4.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, compared to $52.0 million, including $4.3 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, for the comparable period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by continued advancement of the tegoprubart clinical development programs, including expanded clinical trial activity and manufacturing scale-up, as well as increased personnel to support these efforts.

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $17.0 million, including $6.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, compared to $18.6 million, including $8.8 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, for the comparable period in 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by higher professional services and personnel-related costs.

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $45.6 million, or $0.52 per basic share of common stock, compared to a net loss of $36.2 million, or $0.66 per basic share of common stock, for the comparable period in 2024. The 2025 net loss included a non-cash gain of $33.4 million from changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities, while the 2024 net loss included a non-cash gain of $30.9 million from such changes. Excluding the non-cash items related to changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities, Eledon would have recorded a net loss of $79.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $67.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Release – Greenwich LifeSciences Announces Addition of City of Hope to FLAMINGO-01

Posted on March 19, 2026March 19, 2026 by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

Research News and Market Data on GLSI

Download as PDF March 19, 2026 6:00am EDT

STAFFORD, Texas, March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greenwich LifeSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: GLSI) (the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on its Phase III clinical trial, FLAMINGO-01, which is evaluating Fast Track designated GLSI-100, an immunotherapy to prevent breast cancer recurrences, today announced the initiation of new clinical sites in the US.

The Phase III clinical trial has recently been activated at City of Hope, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the United States – specifically at its network sites in Los Angeles and Orange counties, Arizona, Atlanta, and Illinois. Principal investigator at City of Hope, Hope S. Rugo, M.D., continues her participation on the Steering Committee. Her prior site at University of California San Francisco, where she is Professor Emeritus, is still participating in the study.

Dr. Rugo is division chief of breast medical oncology and a professor in the Department of Medical Oncology & Therapeutics Research at City of Hope. She also serves as director of the Women’s Cancers Program for City of Hope’s national network of cancer centers. A world-renowned expert in breast cancer and clinical trial design and execution, Dr. Rugo oversees women’s cancer research initiatives and clinical care at City of Hope. She is focused on expanding breast cancer clinical trials, advancing translational research, and standardizing care to improve patient outcomes. She is deeply committed to improving access to innovative new therapies for breast cancer patients everywhere and takes a compassionate, collaborative approach in her work.

Dr. Rugo has been directly involved in numerous projects that have established new standards of care for breast cancer. She has served on the steering committees of multiple clinical trials that led to the approval of agents such as PARP inhibitors, CDK4/6 inhibitors, PI3K inhibitors, checkpoint inhibitors, and antibody-drug conjugates, among others. Additionally, Dr. Rugo has led several studies aimed at minimizing therapy-related toxicity. She also served as co-chair of the Triple Negative Working Group of the Translational Breast Cancer Research Consortium, where she spearheaded groundbreaking multicenter clinical trials in collaboration with researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and clinical providers. As a physician-scholar with more than 500 peer-reviewed publications, Dr. Rugo served on the editorial board of the American Society of Clinical Oncology’s Education Committee, which included co-chairing the creation of new guidelines for the hormonal treatment of metastatic breast cancer.

Dr. Rugo commented, “I am excited to open this important trial across our City of Hope sites, expanding treatment opportunities for our patients with high-risk early stage HER2 positive breast cancer. It is truly an honor to now represent City of Hope on the Steering Committee. This study aligns with City of Hope’s interest in and the importance of harnessing the host immune system to reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence.”

Last year City of Hope launched a national clinical trials model that includes clinical sites across the United States in order to accelerate cancer research.

Dr. Jaye Thompson, VP Clinical and Regulatory Affairs, commented, “We are honored to have Dr. Rugo, a globally recognized leader in breast cancer, now participating in FLAMINGO-01 through her leadership at City of Hope. Her site’s expertise and commitment to advancing patient care, which I personally experienced when training these sites, is invaluable as we continue to study GLSI-100. The four City of Hope locations also strengthen our study footprint in some regions of the US where we were not previously covered, providing the study with access to additional population centers.”

CEO Snehal Patel commented, “We started working with Dr. Rugo when she was the breast cancer leader at UCSF and joined our Phase III study and Steering Committee. We quickly benefited from her recommendations as the study was starting up and expanding into Europe. Her extensive experience in developing novel therapies, while minimizing toxicities, will guide us through the development of GLSI-100 as an effective and safe vaccine to prevent metastatic breast cancer in high-risk breast cancer survivors. With the addition of these new sites at City of Hope, planned expansion of US Oncology/Sarah Cannon sites, addition of sites in new countries, including potentially the United Kingdom and Canada, the total sites participating in FLAMINGO-01 could increase from the current 160 sites to up to 190-200 sites.”

About FLAMINGO-01 Open Label Phase III Data

More than 1,000 patients have been screened with a current screen rate of approximately 800 patients per year. The 250 patient non-HLA-A*02 arm is now fully enrolled, where all patients received GLSI-100, which is 5 times more treated patients and recurrence rate data than the approximately 50 patients treated in the Phase IIb trial. The Primary Immunization Series (PIS), which includes the first 6 GLSI-100 injections over the first 6 months and is required to reach peak protection, is followed by 5 booster injections given every 6 months to prolong the immune response, thereby providing longer-term protection.

In the non-HLA-A*02 arm, a preliminary analysis of recurrence rates after the PIS is completed shows an approximately 70-80% reduction in recurrence rate.
This observation is trending similarly to the Phase IIb trial results and hazard ratio where HLA-A*02 patients were treated and where breast cancer recurrences were reduced up to 80% compared to a 20-50% reduction in recurrence rate by other approved products.
The immune response at baseline prior to any GLSI-100 treatment, the increasing immune response during the PIS, and the safety profile of non-HLA-A*02 patients is trending similarly to the HLA-A*02 arms of FLAMINGO-01 and to the Phase IIb study.

Analysis of the open label data from FLAMINGO-01 has been conducted in a manner that maintains the study blind. The open label recurrence rate, immune response, and safety data is based on the patients enrolled to date in FLAMINGO-01 and the data provided by the clinical sites so far, which is not completed or fully reviewed, and is thus preliminary. While comparing any preliminary FLAMINGO-01 data to the Phase IIb clinical trial data may be possible, these preliminary results are not a prediction of future results, and the results at the end of the study may differ.

About GLSI-100 Phase IIb Study

In the prospective, randomized, single-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center (16 sites led by MD Anderson Cancer Center) Phase IIb clinical trial of HLA-A*02 breast cancer patients, 46 HER2/neu 3+ over-expressor patients were treated with GLSI-100, and 50 placebo patients were treated with GM-CSF alone. After 5 years of follow-up, there was an 80% or greater reduction in cancer recurrences in the HER2/neu 3+ patients who were treated with GLSI-100, followed, and remained disease free over the first 6 months, which we believe is the time required to reach peak immunity and thus maximum efficacy and protection. The Phase IIb results can be summarized as follows:

80% or greater reduction in metastatic breast cancer recurrence rate over 5 years of follow-up with a peak immune response at 6 months and well-tolerated safety profile.
The PIS elicited a potent immune response as measured by local skin tests and immunological assays.

About FLAMINGO-01 and GLSI-100

FLAMINGO-01 (NCT05232916) is a Phase III clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Fast Track designated GLSI-100 (GP2 + GM-CSF) in HER2 positive breast cancer patients who had residual disease or high-risk pathologic complete response at surgery and who have completed both neoadjuvant and postoperative adjuvant trastuzumab based treatment. The trial is led by Baylor College of Medicine and currently includes US and European clinical sites from university-based hospitals and academic and cooperative networks with plans to open up to 150 sites globally. In the double-blinded arms of the Phase III trial, approximately 500 HLA-A*02 patients are planned to be randomized to GLSI-100 or placebo, and up to 250 patients of other HLA types are planned to be treated with GLSI-100 in a third arm. The trial has been designed to detect a hazard ratio of 0.3 in invasive breast cancer-free survival, where 28 events will be required. An interim analysis for superiority and futility will be conducted when at least half of those events, 14, have occurred. This sample size provides 80% power if the annual rate of events in placebo-treated subjects is 2.4% or greater.

Dr. Christian Lunetta to Present “From PARADIGM to PARAGON: Advancing PrimeC for ALS through Phase 2 Clinical and Biomarker Insights toward a Global Phase 3 Trial”

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — NeuroSense Therapeutics Ltd. (NASDAQ: NRSN) (“NeuroSense”), a late-stage clinical biotechnology company focused on developing disease-modifying treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, today announced that Dr. Christian Lunetta will present new data and insights on the development of PrimeC, the company’s investigational therapy for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), at the AD/PD™ 2026 International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases and Related Neurological Disorders, to be held in Copenhagen, Denmark, on March 19, 2026.

Dr. Lunetta’s presentation, titled “From PARADIGM to PARAGON: Advancing PrimeC for ALS through Phase 2 Clinical and Biomarker Insights toward a Global Phase 3 Trial,” will take place during the symposium “Mechanisms and Therapeutics in the ALS-FTD Spectrum (SOD-1, TDP-43, C9ORF72 and TMEM106B).”

The presentation will review key clinical and biomarker findings from the Phase 2b PARADIGM trial, which evaluated PrimeC in people living with ALS. The data provide important insights into disease mechanisms and treatment effects that helped inform the design of the company’s global Phase 3 PARAGON trial, currently being advanced to further evaluate PrimeC’s safety and efficacy.

“ALS is one of the most complex neurodegenerative diseases, and advancing therapeutic development requires the integration of rigorous clinical research with deeper biological insight,” said Dr. Christian Lunetta. “The clinical findings emerging from the PARADIGM trial, together with the expanding biomarker analyses, provide an important scientific foundation as we advance toward the PARAGON Phase 3 study. I look forward to sharing these results with the scientific community at AD/PD 2026 and to contributing, together with fellow investigators, to the next stage of clinical development as we work to advance meaningful therapeutic options for people living with ALS.”

“We are deeply appreciative of Dr. Lunetta’s role in presenting these findings and of his contribution as part of the clinical investigator community behind this work,” said Dr. Shiran Zimri, NeuroSense VP of Research and Development and Canada Country Lead. “The timing of this presentation, coming just days after the publication of the PARADIGM results in JAMA Neurology and at such a highly regarded scientific forum, is especially meaningful. It creates a unique moment where robust, peer-reviewed data can immediately be brought into scientific exchange and critical discussion. For us, this is not only about sharing results, but about engaging the field in a deeper understanding of the clinical and biomarker insights from PARADIGM as we advance with urgency toward our global Phase 3 PARAGON study.”

The PARAGON Phase 3 trial is planned as a multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to further evaluate PrimeC’s potential to slow disease progression in people living with ALS.

NeuroSense continues active engagement with regulatory authorities to advance PrimeC toward potential marketing authorization.

STAFFORD, Texas, March 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greenwich LifeSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: GLSI) (the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on its Phase III clinical trial, FLAMINGO-01, which is evaluating Fast Track designated GLSI-100, an immunotherapy to prevent breast cancer recurrences, today provided an update on the upcoming AACR Meeting 2026.

Two abstracts and two posters were accepted for presentation. The titles and authors of the abstracts are as follows:

Abstract Number: CT138 – Poster Section 52 on April 20, 2026, 2-5pm

Abstract Title: 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-risk PCR after both neo-adjuvant and postoperative adjuvant anti-HER2 therapy, Flamingo-01

Snehal S. Patel¹, Jaye Thompson¹, F. Joseph Daugherty¹, Francois-Clement Bidard², William J. Gradishar³, Marcus Schmidt⁴, Miguel Martin⁵, Joyce A. O’Shaughnessy⁶, Hope S. Rugo⁷, Cesar A. Santa-Maria⁸, Laura M. Spring⁹, Mothaffar F. Rimawi¹⁰

This will be the first abstract and poster from FLAMINGO-01 with statistically significant immune response data, potentially with subgroup analysis by the most prevalent HLA types. A positive immune response is an indicator that the immune system has been activated against recurring cancer cells, potentially leading to the prevention of metastatic breast cancer and improved long term survival.
Immune responses to GP2 were measured at baseline and over time using delayed-type-hypersensitivity (DTH) skin tests and other methods. The DTH skin test measures the diameter of the skin immune response to GP2 in millimeters, 48-72 hours after intradermal injection of a low concentration of GP2 without GM-CSF.

Abstract Number: CT227 – Poster Section 51 on April 21, 2026, 9am-12pm

Abstract Title: Phase III study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GLSI-100 (GP2 + GM-CSF) in breast cancer patients with residual disease or high-risk PCR after both neo-adjuvant and postoperative adjuvant anti-HER2 therapy, Flamingo-01

Robert LeBoyer, Senior Vice President, Equity Research Analyst, Biotechnology, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

New Analysis Shows Less Than 1% Recurrance Rate. Greenwich Pharmaceuticals announced a preliminary update from its FLAMINGO-01 trial. The data from the open-label arm of the trial showed a recurrence rate of less than 1% per year compared to a recurrence rate of 4% per year for patients treated with Kadcyla (ado-trastuzumab emtansine or T-DM1, from Genentech) in the Phase 3 KATHERINE Study. This is a 70% to 80% reduction in the historical recurrence rate for these patients.

Background On The Phase 3 FLAMINGO-01 Trial. The trial tests GLSI-100, an immunotherapy to prevent recurrence of HER2-positive breast cancer. Its design has a double-blind portion that enrolls patients with the immune marker HLA-A*02 to receive either GLSI-100 or placebo, and an open-label arm that enrolls patients that have other HLA types (non-HLA-A*02). The new data is from the open-label arm of the trial.

Release – Gyre Therapeutics Announces China’s NMPA Grants Priority Review to the NDA for Hydronidone (F351) for CHB-Induced Liver Fibrosis Treatment

Posted on March 17, 2026March 17, 2026 by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

Research News and Market Data on GYRE

March 17, 2026

PDF Version

SAN DIEGO, March 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gyre Therapeutics, Inc. (Gyre or Gyre Therapeutics) (Nasdaq: GYRE), a San Diego-based innovative commercial stage biopharmaceutical company with operations in the United States and China, today announced that the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) has granted priority review status to the New Drug Application (NDA) for Hydronidone (F351) as a treatment for chronic hepatitis B (CHB)-induced liver fibrosis, which is liver damage resulting from the infection of the hepatitis B virus (HBV). This decision by CDE was made following the pre-NDA communication meeting previously announced on January 5, 2026 and is a major milestone in the NDA process. Gyre, through its majority-owned subsidiary, Gyre Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (Gyre Pharmaceuticals), plans to submit a formal NDA in the near future.

Mr. Ping Zhang, Executive Chairman of Gyre, stated, “I am very pleased to see the decision by the Chinese CDE to grant priority review to our NDA for F351. It underscores both the urgency of the medical need to treat liver fibrosis and the potential of F351 as an innovative therapeutic option. HBV infection affects tens of millions of patients in China and a significant number of them will develop liver fibrosis and eventually cirrhosis. If approved, F351 could address the need for these patients. We thank the agency for their continued support to advance therapies for liver fibrosis patients in need of treatment and look forward to working closely with CDE to move F351 toward approval.”

About Priority Review Designation by the NMPA in China

Priority review was established in China in 2017 to facilitate drug registration and accelerate the development of new drugs with clinical value under the guidance of Opinions on Encouraging Pharmaceutical Innovation via Priority Review & Approval. According to these guidelines, the NMPA will prioritize the review of these applications and allocate additional evaluation resources, which is expected to accelerate the review process.

About Hydronidone (F351)

Hydronidone, also known as F351, is a novel, orally administered anti-fibrotic agent designed to target key liver fibrosis pathways. It attenuates hepatic stellate cell activation and fibrogenesis, at least in part, by suppressing TGF-β1-induced signal transduction, including reduced p38γ phosphorylation and upregulated Smad7 expression. This upregulation of Smad7 subsequently leads to downregulation of TGF-βRI and inhibition of Smad2/3 activation, thereby disrupting canonical TGF-β/Smad signaling and reducing fibrotic gene expression in HSCs.

The drug has completed Phase 3 clinical evaluation in China for CHB-associated liver fibrosis, including early (compensated) cirrhosis, and is being evaluated for its potential applicability across additional fibrotic diseases in region-specific development programs.

About CHB-Induced Liver Fibrosis

CHB-induced liver fibrosis is the accumulation of scar tissue (collagen) in the liver caused by persistent inflammation from hepatitis B virus. According to the World Health Organization, approximately 254 million people worldwide were living with CHB infection in 2022, with 1.2 million new infections each year, and 1.3 million deaths globally. CHB is the leading aetiology of liver fibrosis and liver cancer globally, with up to 36% of all CHB patients globally developing cirrhosis. CHB prevalence varies across geographies with China and the United States estimated to have among the highest number of CHB cases.

About Gyre Pharmaceuticals

Gyre Pharmaceuticals is a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to the research, development, manufacturing and commercialization of innovative drugs for organ fibrosis. Its flagship product, ETUARY^® (pirfenidone capsule), was the first approved treatment for IPF in the PRC in 2011 and has maintained a prominent market share (2024 net sales of $105.8 million). In addition, Gyre Pharmaceuticals’ pipeline includes Hydronidone, a structural analogue of pirfenidone, which demonstrated statistically significant fibrosis regression after 52 weeks of treatment in a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial in CHB-associated liver fibrosis in the PRC. Hydronidone received Breakthrough Therapy designation by the NMPA Center for Drug Evaluation in March 2021. Gyre Pharmaceuticals is also developing treatments for PD, RILI with or without immune-related pneumonitis, COPD, PAH and ALF/ACLF. As of the third quarter of 2025, Gyre Therapeutics owns a 69.7% equity interest in Gyre Pharmaceuticals.

About Gyre Therapeutics

Gyre Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company headquartered in San Diego, CA, primarily focused on the development and commercialization of Hydronidone for liver fibrosis including MASH in the U.S. Gyre’s strategy builds on its experience in mechanistic studies using MASH rodent models and clinical studies in CHB-induced liver fibrosis. In the PRC, Gyre is advancing a broad pipeline through its indirect controlling interest in Gyre Pharmaceuticals, including therapeutic expansions of ETUARY, and development programs for F573, F528, and F230. On March 2, 2026 Gyre announced its agreement to acquire Cullgen Inc., a privately-held, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of targeted protein degraders and degrader antibody conjugate therapies.

Release – Greenwich LifeSciences Provides Update Showing Continued Reduction in Recurrence Rate in the Open Label Arm of FLAMINGO-01

Posted on March 17, 2026March 17, 2026 by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

Research News and Market Data on GLSI

March 17, 2026 6:00am EDT

STAFFORD, Texas, March 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greenwich LifeSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: GLSI) (the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on its Phase III clinical trial, FLAMINGO-01, which is evaluating GLSI-100, an immunotherapy to prevent breast cancer recurrences, today provided a preliminary update showing a continued reduction in the recurrence rate in the fully enrolled, 250 patient, open label non-HLA-A*02 arm of FLAMINGO-01.

6 Months of Additional Patient Data Since Last Update Shows Recurrence Rate of <1% per Year in Non-HLA-A*02 Patients Treated with GLSI-100, Following Completion of Primary Immunization Series (PIS)
This <1% Annual Recurrence Rate Observed in Non-HLA-A*02 Patients is Statistically Significantly Smaller Than a 4% Annual Recurrence Rate Over a Similar Time Period Observed in the Katherine Study (Kadcyla Treated Arm) Yielding an Approximately 70-80% Reduction in Recurrence Rate as Explained Below

The non-HLA-A*02 arm does not have a direct placebo comparator arm, thus a Kaplan Meier survival analysis is not possible, and the following method was used:

The <1% recurrence rate per year of these 250 treated patients after completing the PIS was compared to the expected historical recurrence rate per year reported for a similar population in the Katherine study who received TDM1 (Kadcyla), which is about 4% recurrences per year or higher in the initial years of the Katherine study. The majority of the treated patients in FLAMINGO-01 also received TDM1 followed by GLSI-100.
As of this data cut, the current recurrence rate of the non-HLA-A*02 patients treated with GLSI-100, following completion of the PIS over an average of 1.2 years of patient exposure, is statistically significantly smaller than a 4% annual recurrence rate over a similar time period observed in the Katherine study (0.7% versus 4% annual recurrence rate over 1.2 patient-years, 83% reduction in recurrence rate, Chi Square, p < 0.005). This preliminary data will continue to be updated and cleaned, so future and final results may vary. Future updates may be presented at upcoming conferences.
This observation is trending similarly to the Phase IIb trial results and hazard ratio where HLA-A*02 patients were treated and where breast cancer recurrences were reduced up to 80% compared to a 20-50% reduction in recurrence rate by other approved products.

Additional information about the non-HLA-A*02 arm follows:

Virtually all of the non-HLA-A*02 patients have completed the primary immunization series, which is the first 6 monthly vaccinations in the study.
Every 6 months approximately 110 patient-years are added to the non-HLA-A*02 patient data base.
Enhertu (T-DXd) treated patients can be enrolled in FLAMINGO-01. In the future, if Enhertu is approved for high risk patients in the adjuvant setting, more Enhertu treated patients could be enrolled in FLAMINGO-01 and may recur at a lower rate than if treated with Kadcyla. The recurrence rate assumptions in the design of FLAMINGO-01 include this possibility as well as other potential improvements in standard of care.

About FLAMINGO-01 Open Label Phase III Data

In the non-HLA-A*02 arm, a preliminary analysis of recurrence rates after the PIS is completed compared to the recurrence rates comparable to those observed in the Katherine study of Kadcyla shows an approximately 70-80% reduction in recurrence rate.
This non-HLA-A*02 arm observation is trending similarly to the Phase IIb trial results and hazard ratio where HLA-A*02 patients were treated and where breast cancer recurrences were reduced up to 80% compared to a 20-50% reduction in recurrence rate by other approved products.
The immune response at baseline prior to any GLSI-100 treatment, the increasing immune response during the PIS, and the safety profile of non-HLA-A*02 patients is trending similarly to the HLA-A*02 arms of FLAMINGO-01 and to the Phase IIb study.

About GLSI-100 Phase IIb Study

80% or greater reduction in metastatic breast cancer recurrence rate over 5 years of follow-up with a peak immune response at 6 months and well-tolerated safety profile.
The PIS elicited a potent immune response as measured by local skin tests and immunological assays.

Big Pharma Is Running Out of Time — And Small-Cap Biotechs Are the Answer

Posted on March 17, 2026March 17, 2026 by slightbourne@noblecapitalmarkets.com

The pharmaceutical industry is facing a revenue crisis of its own making, and the fallout is quietly creating one of the most compelling acquisition environments for small-cap biotech investors in recent memory. The catalyst is straightforward: patent expirations on some of the world’s best-selling drugs are set to eliminate hundreds of billions in annual revenue from major drugmakers’ balance sheets, and the only viable path to replacing that income runs directly through the small-cap biotech sector.

An estimated $236 billion in annual Big Pharma revenue is at risk as blockbuster drugs lose exclusivity in the 2026–2030 window. Flagship products from AbbVie, Merck, Bristol Myers Squibb, and Pfizer are all exposed. Pfizer alone faces a revenue shortfall that analysts project could reach $17–18 billion by 2030 as key drugs lose patent protection. These are not minor headwinds — they represent structural holes in revenue models that took decades to build.

Acquisition Is the Only Realistic Fix

Internal R&D pipelines, no matter how well-funded, cannot reliably produce late-stage, de-risked assets fast enough to offset losses of this scale. That reality is driving an acceleration of M&A activity at a pace not seen in years. Biopharma dealmaking surged to $43.2 billion in value in Q3 2025 alone — a 36.7% jump quarter-over-quarter — and analysts broadly expect 2026 and 2027 to see even more aggressive activity as patent deadlines loom closer.

The targets of choice are small-cap biotechs with proven or near-proven assets, particularly those with late-stage clinical data in high-value therapeutic areas like oncology, rare disease, and immunology. These companies represent an increasingly attractive proposition: they carry significantly lower valuation multiples than large-cap pharma — many trading around 6x revenue — while offering precisely the pipeline depth that major acquirers need most.

What This Means for Small-Cap Investors

For investors paying attention to the small and microcap biotech space, this dynamic creates a clear opportunity structure. Companies advancing late-stage assets in therapeutic categories where major drug patents are expiring are sitting at the intersection of scientific value and urgent corporate need. That combination has historically produced acquisition premiums that significantly reward early investors.

Novartis’s $12 billion acquisition of Avidity Biosciences stands as one of the most cited recent examples — a deal that illustrated how quickly a credible pipeline can attract top-tier buyers willing to pay a substantial premium. It will not be the last. With private equity also sitting on an estimated $440 billion in dry powder earmarked for smaller enterprises, competition for the highest-quality small-cap biotech targets is intensifying from both strategic and financial buyers simultaneously.

The Floor Has Shifted

What makes this M&A wave structurally different from prior cycles is the urgency driving it. This is not opportunistic dealmaking — it is defensive necessity for some of the most capitalized companies in the world. That urgency creates a pricing floor for quality small-cap biotech assets that did not exist five years ago.

For investors willing to do the fundamental work of identifying companies with credible late-stage pipelines, strong IP positions, and exposure to the therapeutic categories where patent cliffs are most acute, the current environment may represent one of the better entry windows of the decade. The deals are coming. The question is whether investors are positioned ahead of them.
