Greenwich LifeSciences Approved to Add Additional Sites to FLAMINGO-01 in Europe

Yahoo29-01-2025

STAFFORD, Texas, Jan. 29, 2025 (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 the following update on the expansion of the clinical trial into Europe.
The Company's application to add an additional 11 sites in Spain, Germany, and Poland has been formally approved by EMA. The academic networks participating in each country are Geicam (Spain), Unicancer (France), GBG (Germany), GIM (Italy), and a network of Polish sites. With this additional approval, regulators have cleared the way to activate approximately 110-115 sites in Europe.
Based on the interest of principal investigators at additional sites, the Company plans to submit applications to EMA regulators to add 5-10 additional sites in Ireland, Romania, and potentially other countries in Europe.
CEO Snehal Patel commented, "In 2024, we activated sites in all 5 countries in Europe, which represent a large population similar to that of the US. We visited these sites to train the study team, doctors, pharmacists, and nurses and hope to complete the activation of the last sites in the coming quarters in 2025. The expansion of FLAMINGO-01 into Europe has been complimentary to the activated sites in the US, which also increased in 2024. In total we now have approximately 100 sites globally that are activated and screening patients. We believe that the interest level in Europe is very high as we have seen a large increase in patient screening in the second half of 2024."
About FLAMINGO-01 and GLSI-100
FLAMINGO-01 (NCT05232916) is a Phase III clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 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 clinical sites from university-based hospitals and cooperative networks with plans to expand into Europe and to open up to 150 sites globally. In the double-blinded arms of the Phase III trial, approximately 500 HLA-A*02 patients will be randomized to GLSI-100 or placebo, and up to 250 patients of other HLA types will 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.

MET-233i had no safety indications and was well tolerated. The trial included 80 overweight or obese participants, with individual cases resulting in weight loss of up to 10.2%. MET-233i displayed high tolerability and dose-linear pharmacokinetics when tested in both single and multiple ascending dose formats. The majority of adverse gastrointestinal events occurred in the first week and were mild and dose-dependent. According to preliminary findings, it might make it practical to use its fully-biased GLP-1 RA candidate, MET-097i, in the first monthly GLP-1 + amylin combination therapy.

Why Palantir Technologies Hit a New All-Time High on Wednesday

One Wall Street analyst boosted Palantir's price target, despite maintaining a sell rating. The reasoning for the move was decidedly bullish. The key factor in the rating is Palantir's frothy valuation. 10 stocks we like better than Palantir Technologies › Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) stock continued its epic run on Wednesday, climbing as much as 5.4%. As of 3:37 p.m. ET, the stock was still up 3%. The artificial intelligence (AI) software and data mining specialist has climbed to new heights several times in recent weeks, with its stock notching a new all-time high on Wednesday. That puts the stock up more than 80% so far this year. The catalyst behind today's move was a reluctant nod from a Wall Street analyst. Mizuho analyst Matthew Broome kept an underperform (sell) rating on Palantir stock, but raised his price target for Palantir to $116, up from its previous level of $94. For those keeping score at home, that's roughly 12% below the stock's closing price on Tuesday, so the analyst is obviously playing catch-up. Broome cited Palantir's "strong recent execution and significant upward revisions" for his price target increase. The analyst also noted the company's "strong strategic positioning with large customers and potential for further accelerated growth in future years." So, if the analyst is so bullish on Palantir, why maintain the sell rating? In a word: valuation. Palantir stock is currently selling for 594 times earnings and 109 times sales. With multiples of that magnitude, it isn't for the faint of heart. Even factoring in the company's accelerating growth, it sports a price-to-earnings growth (PEG) ratio of 6, when any number higher than 1 is overvalued. Don't get me wrong: I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Palantir bull. However, valuation is a fickle mistress, and any failure by the company to execute -- real or perceived -- could bring the stock crashing down. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see Palantir stock get cut in half at some point over the next year -- before climbing to even greater heights.
