WEP Clinical Inc. (WEP) is pleased to announce that it has partnered with Sellas Life Sciences Group, Inc. (“Sellas”), a late-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel therapies for various cancer indications. Together, they will launch an Expanded Access Program (EAP) for galinpepimut-S (GPS). GPS is an immunotherapeutic which targets the Wilms Tumor 1 (WT1), which is present and over-expressed in an array of hematological malignancies and solid tumors.
The EAP will run alongside the current pivotal REGAL Phase 3 clinical trial for AML patients in their second complete remission (CR2) or in second complete remission with incomplete platelet count recovery (CRp2).
Jas Khera, Managing Director of WEP, said:
“We are excited to be working with Sellas and look forward to supporting the company, and the patients that need GPS, with its expanded access efforts. Sellas has already achieved some great milestones with GPS, and this EAP will allow their team to further support their patient community, which is something we are thrilled to be a part of.”
