Overview

This is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center, Phase 3 study of GLSI-100 immunotherapy in HLA-A02 positive and HER2/neu positive subjects who are at high risk for disease recurrence and have completed both neoadjuvant and postoperative adjuvant standard of care therapy. Treatment consists of 6 intradermal injections, Primary Immunization Series (PIS), over the first 6 months of treatment and 5 booster intradermal injections spaced 6 months apart. A third open-label arm will explore GLSI-100 immunotherapy in non-HLA-A02 positive and HER2/neu positive subjects.

• The subject can begin study therapy within one year of completion of adjuvant trastuzumab-based therapy and any other standard therapies, but, study therapy can be administered concurrently with endocrine therapy.
• No clinical evidence of residual or persistent breast cancer per treating physician assessment
