"We are pleased with the progress of our pipeline as we continue to advance our two key assets through clinical development," said Angelos Stergiou, MD, ScD h.c., President and Chief Executive Officer of SELLAS. "The most anticipated milestones in 2025 will be the final analysis of our Phase 3 pivotal REGAL trial of GPS in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and the full topline Phase 2 data of SLS009 in AML, both of which represent significant opportunities and offer hope to AML patients in need. If successful, the REGAL trial provides a pathway for regulatory approval in AML, and GPS could become a transformative treatment for patients in their second complete remission. Furthermore, the promising data from the ongoing Phase 2 trial of SLS009 has shown a 56% overall response rate (ORR) in AML patients with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML MRC) prospectively enrolled in two expansion cohorts, exceeding the prespecified target ORR of 33%. In the optimal dosing regimen of 30 mg BIW, the median overall survival (mOS) has not been reached but exceeds 7.7 months at the latest follow-up, where the expected mOS is historically approximately 2.5 months."
Dr. Stergiou continued, "We are especially encouraged by the multiple regulatory designations granted to our programs in 2024, including three FDA Rare Pediatric Disease Designations, one FDA Fast Track Designation, and two EMA Orphan Drug Designations, which reflect the significant potential impact of our therapies and provide valuable regulatory benefits that may accelerate development and potential approval. With strong regulatory recognition and two potentially pivotal inflection points ahead, we remain committed to driving innovation and delivering value to patients and shareholders."
