Flamingo-01 Overview
Flamingo-01 has a planned interim analysis, using a similar treatment regime as the completed Phase IIb clinical trial.
The primary objective of Flamingo-01 is to assess the safety and efficacy of GP2 compared to placebo in HLA-A*02 positive and HER2/neu positive breast cancer patients who have a high risk of disease recurrence (stage I, II, or III at presentation with residual disease at surgery; or, stage III at presentation with pathologic complete response at surgery) and have completed both neoadjuvant and postoperative, adjuvant trastuzumab-based standard of care therapy.

Flamingo-01 Trial Design
The Flamingo-01 Phase III trial is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, multi-center study. The patient population is defined by major screening criteria and stratified in order to balance the patient population between the treated and placebo arms of the trial.
Major Screening Criteria:
- HER2/neu Positive Breast Cancer
- HLA-A*02 Positive
- Residual disease post neo-adjuvant therapy and surgery
- pCR if Stage III at presentation
Stratified By:
- Residual disease/pCR
- Hormone receptor status
- Geographic region
As currently designed, approximately 500 HLA-A*02 patients will be randomized to receive GLSI-100 (GP2 and GM-CSF) or placebo control in the first two pivotal arms of the trial with a planned interim analysis. The primary endpoints of the pivotal arms will be blinded, but various other data such as immune response and safety may be open label. In addition, up to 250 non HLA-A*02 patients will be enrolled in the third open-label arm where all patients will receive GLSI-100 and where all endpoints will be open-label.
After 1 year of trastuzumab-based therapy or an approved biosimilar, 6 intradermal injections of GLSI-100 or saline placebo will be administered for the first 6 months as the Primary Immunization Series followed by 5 Boosters over the next 2.5 years for a total of 11 injections over 3 years of treatment. The participant duration of the trial will be 3 years treatment plus 1 year follow-up for a total of 4 years following the first year of treatment with trastuzumab-based therapy. Immune response analysis is planned at baseline and various timepoints.
- Primary Immunization Series: The objective of the Primary Immunization Series is to provide protection against breast cancer recurrence after immunity has peaked at approximately 6 months.
- Boosters: The objective of the Boosters is to maintain immunity and thereby protection for longer periods of time.
