[{"type":"text","content":"Independent Data Monitoring Committee Scheduled to Meet This Quarter\nNEW YORK, Nov. 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SELLAS Life Sciences Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: SLS) (“SELLAS’’ or the “Company”), a late-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel therapies for a broad range of cancer indications, today announced that the target patient enrollment outside of mainland China in the ongoing Phase 3 REGAL trial of galinpepimut-S (GPS) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have achieved complete remission following second-line salvage therapy has been reached. “Reaching target enrollment ex-mainland China in this important study represents a significant milestone for SELLAS, the GPS development program, and the AML patient community,” said Angelos Stergiou, MD, ScD h.c., President and Chief Executive Officer of SELLAS. “We are extremely grateful to the participating patients and investigators who have helped achieve this critical milestone and we look forward to sharing the interim analysis which we expect to occur by the end of this year or early next year based upon our statistical assumptions.

With a strong scientific rationale and supportive clinical data in previously conducted Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies in the AML maintenance setting, we believe GPS holds significant promise as a potential new treatment for AML patients. Furthermore, the positive outcome from the recently completed FDA Type C meeting and FDA’s guidance on the advancement of our CMC plans for a BLA filing, assuming positive results from the REGAL study, further strengthens our overall GPS program.” The Phase 3 open-label REGAL trial was designed with formal input from the United States Food and Drug Administration. Over 100 patients have been enrolled in the United States, Europe and Asia in the study which compares GPS monotherapy in the maintenance setting to investigators’ choice of best available treatment in AML patients who have achieved hematologic complete remission, with or without thrombocytopenia (CR2/CR2p), after second-line antileukemic therapy and who are deemed ineligible for or unable to undergo allogeneic stem-cell transplant...
