The company raised about $295.5m in net proceeds from a February 2026 public offering and ended the quarter with $532.9m to $533m in cash and equivalents, with management indicating funding into 2029. Damora appointed Jennifer Jarrett as President and CEO, reshaped its finance leadership and board, and outlined plans to file regulatory submissions for DMR-001 by mid-2026, followed by DMR-002 and DMR-003 through 2027, with initial clinical data expected from mid-2027. Taken together, the larger loss, cash raise and leadership overhaul all point to a company leaning hard into early-stage pipeline build-out and clinical execution over near-term profitability. For investors, the key questions are whether the cash runway, execution on IND timelines and early readouts on DMR-001, DMR-002 and DMR-003 will justify the ongoing R&D spend and any future dilution risk.お知らせ • May 01Damora Therapeutics, Inc., Annual General Meeting, Jun 17, 2026Damora Therapeutics, Inc., Annual General Meeting, Jun 17, 2026.お知らせ • Mar 23+ 1 more updateDamora Therapeutics, Inc.

Over 44x increase in shares outstanding. This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (19% average weekly change).

Announces First Patient Dosed in an Investigator-Initiated Phase 2 Trial of GB1211 in Combination with PembrolizumabGalecto, Inc. announced that the first patient has been enrolled in an investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial to evaluate GB1211, Galecto’s first-in-class, oral small molecule galectin-3 inhibitor candidate, at the Earle A. Chiles Research Institute (EACRI), a division of Providence Cancer Institute in Portland, Oregon, USA. Under the direction of Providence investigators Dr. Brendan Curti and Dr. William Redmond, the study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GB1211 at a dose of 100mg twice daily in combination with pembrolizumab for the treatment of metastatic malignant melanoma (MM) and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Drs. Curti and Redmond received an R01 Research Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, for their investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial. Galecto has committed to supply GB1211 for the trial. Galectin-3 is overexpressed in many cancers, including melanoma and HNSCC. Increased galectin-3 expression in tumors is linked to tumor growth, invasiveness and metastatic potential. Furthermore, increased levels of galectin-3 in the tumor microenvironment can cause checkpoint inhibitor resistance by blocking the binding of the checkpoint inhibitor antibodies, pembrolizumab and atezolizumab (Tecentriq®), to their respective targets. Preclinical data has shown that GB1211 has the ability to reduce galectin-3 associated interference with immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI), thus alleviating galectin-3-specific ICI resistance. In the fourth quarter of 2023, Galecto reported topline results from its Phase 1b/2a GALLANT-1 clinical trial evaluating GB1211 twice daily in combination with atezolizumab for the first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Galecto reported that investigator-assessed objective tumor responses (defined as partial responses per RECIST criteria 1.1) were observed in three of five patients (60%) who received the recommended Phase 2 dose level of GB1211 100 mg for at least three weeks. Historically, response rates of only 22–38% have been observed with atezolizumab monotherapy in the first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC, suggesting a potential benefit of adding GB1211 to ICI. The randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled, investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial will evaluate whether the addition of GB1211 increases the response rate of pembrolizumab in metastatic melanoma and HNSCC patients. The study will employ a fixed dose of GB1211 in conjunction with the standard therapeutic dose of pembrolizumab in patients with unresectable or metastatic MM or recurrent or metastatic HNSCC progressing during or after platinum-containing chemotherapy. In addition to monitoring for toxicity and clinical response, biospecimens will be obtained to assess immunologic measures relevant to galectin biology and T-cell checkpoint inhibition. Tumor volume will be assessed by immune response RECIST criteria (iRECIST criteria 1.1). It is anticipated that early data from this trial could be available as early as 2025.お知らせ • May 01Galecto, Inc., Annual General Meeting, Jun 20, 2024Galecto, Inc., Annual General Meeting, Jun 20, 2024, at 09:00 US Eastern Standard Time.

Announces Positive Topline Results from A Phase 2A Trial of GB2064 for the Treatment of MyelofibrosisGalecto, Inc. announced positive topline results from a Phase 2a trial of GB2064 for the treatment of myelofibrosis. The MYLOX-1 trial dosed a total of 18 myelofibrosis patients, of which 11 (61%) patients had previously received janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) therapy with ruxolitinib, with eight of those patients being refractory and three being intolerant to JAKi therapy. Six out of ten evaluable myelofibrosis patients who received GB2064 monotherapy for at least six months experienced a = 1-grade reduction in collagen fibrosis of the bone marrow, an improvement suggesting that GB2064 could impact the progression of the disease and be disease-modifying. Fibrosis is a key disease mechanism of myelofibrosis that destroys bone marrow function. Reducing fibrosis is required to slow the progression of the disease. Bone marrow biopsies taken during the study showed that GB2064 penetrated the bone marrow and could exert its anti-fibrotic effect directly in the disease compartment. Furthermore, GB2064 demonstrated target engagement systemically by binding to LOXL2 in plasma. All six patients who experienced a > 1-grade reduction in bone marrow fibrosis score also showed stable hematological parameters, including hemoglobin, white blood cell count and platelets. At six months of treatment, one patient obtained a =35% reduction in spleen volume, two patients reduced their Total Symptom Score (TSS) by more than 50% and one patient had an anemia response. Four of these patients have entered the extension phase of the study due to the clinical benefit derived from GB2064 as evaluated by the treating physician, with one patient receiving treatment for more than 30 months. GB2064 showed a generally acceptable tolerability profile in the MYLOX-1 trial. Eighteen patients were dosed with GB2064 monotherapy in the MYLOX-1 trial. Eight patients completed treatment in the core phase of the MYLOX-1 trial and ten patients discontinued treatment due to an adverse event or disease progression. The most commonly observed treatment-related adverse events were gastrointestinal in nature and were manageable in most patients with standard therapy. The only treatment-related serious adverse event was a case of fall, which was assessed as possibly related to GB2064 by the investigator.お知らせ • Oct 24Galecto, Inc. Presents Updated Clinical Data At ESMO Congress 2023 and Provides Update on Phase 1B/2A Gallant-1 TrialGalecto, Inc. presented a poster with new and encouraging clinical data, including two additional partial responders, from the dose-finding Part A of its Phase 1b/2a trial (NCT05240131) (the GALLANT-1 trial) at the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2023 in Madrid, Spain. The GALLANT-1 trial is designed to study the combination of atezolizumab (Tecentriq®?) and GB1211, Galecto's first-in-class, oral small-molecule galectin-3 inhibitor candidate, in the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic/advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). At the recommended Phase 2 dose level of 100 mg GB1211 twice daily, investigator-assessed objective tumor responses (defined as partial responses per RECIST criteria 1.1) were observed in three of five patients (60%) who received GB1211 for at least three weeks. Response rates of only 22-38% have been observed with atezolizumab monotherapy in the first- line treatment of advanced NSCLC, suggesting a potential benefit of adding GB1211 to atezolizumab. The Company believes that GALLANT-1 is the first clinical trial to show that combining an oral galectin-3 inhibitor with a checkpoint inhibitor may enhance the effect of checkpoint inhibitors. In addition, insights from early biomarker analyses revealed a trend showing that responders had increased levels of galectin-3 at baseline, and stable or decreasing galectin-3 levels during treatment. In contrast, patients with progressive disease demonstrated increasing levels of galectin- 3 during treatment. Galecto will continue to supply GB1211 100 mg for the upcoming investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial at Providence Portland Medical Center's Earle A. Chiles Research Institute (EACRI). This trial, which is expected to be initiated in early 2024, will evaluate the safety and efficacy of GB1211 in combination with pembrolizumab (Keytruda®?). Galecto plans to explore external options for partnering and/or funding additional oncology-focused activities for GB1211 as part of its strategic alternative process.お知らせ • Oct 05Galecto Receives a Deficiency Letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock MarketOn September 27, 2023, Galecto, Inc. received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock has been below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Select Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).

The GALACTIC-1 trial did not meet its primary endpoint of change from baseline in rate of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC). Based on the results of the GALACTIC-1 trial, Galecto plans to discontinue development of GB0139. Going forward, Galecto will focus on development opportunities for the treatment of severe liver diseases. The GALACTIC-1 trial (NCT03832946) enrolled 173 patients who were not receiving pirfenidone or nintedanib, the current standard of care for IPF. The trial compared treatment with the inhaled 3 mg dose of GB0139 to placebo (randomized 2:1) over 52 weeks. The GALACTIC-1 trial did not meet its primary endpoint of change from baseline in rate of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC) at week 52. Levels of galectin-3 increased from day 0 to week 52 in both the placebo and active GB0139 3 mg arms, and thus there was no confirmation of target engagement in the trial. The mean change in FVC from baseline to week 52 was -316.6 ml in the GB0139 3 mg arm compared to -127.4 ml in the placebo arm (placebo-corrected difference of -189.2 ml; 95% CI -311.28 to -67.10 ml). The observed decrease in lung function in the placebo group was lower than similar placebo groups reported in previous IPF trials with other drugs. In the safety analysis, Galecto observed a significant amount of IPF-like treatment-emergent adverse events in the active GB0139 arm commensurate with FVC development. The most common adverse events included cough, dyspnea and COVID-19. Treatment-emergent serious adverse events, which included worsening of IPF, were observed in 7.8% of patients in the GB0139 group and 1.4% of patients in the placebo group. Adverse events leading to death were similar in both groups. Galecto intends to work in close collaboration with external experts to analyze the results observed in the placebo arm of the GALACTIC-1 trial. Additionally, Galecto plans to communicate the results of the GALACTIC-1 trial at an upcoming medical conference. Galecto previously announced that it had concluded a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Type C meeting centered around the continued development of GB1211, Galecto’s oral galectin-3 inhibitor product candidate for the treatment of compensated and decompensated cirrhosis. As a result of this meeting and in accordance with guidance received from the FDA, Galecto’s next step in the development of GB1211 is to initiate a long-term, randomized, placebo-controlled, Phase 2a trial in patients with decompensated NASH cirrhosis, which will evaluate efficacy and tolerability at additional dose levels. This trial, referred to as the GULLIVER-3 trial, is expected to be initiated in early 2024, subject to obtaining additional financing. Galectin-3 and LOXL2 have been shown to be critical drivers of fibrotic disease pathogenesis and are associated with severe liver disease and poor outcomes. Galecto previously announced topline results from its Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 trial of GB1211, its orally available galectin-3 inhibitor, for the treatment of decompensated cirrhosis. Topline results from the GULLIVER-2 trial showed statistically significant reductions in liver enzymes (AST, ALT and GGT) and other positive biomarker effects after 12 weeks of treatment, as well as a reduction in MELD score. GB1211 also exhibited a favorable tolerability profile in this trial.New Risk • Aug 03New minor risk - Shareholder dilutionThe company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 6.8% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$38m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 16% per year for the foreseeable future.

GULLIVER-2 is a clinical trial designed to assess GB1211, an orally available and high-affinity small molecule carbohydrate-based galectin-3 inhibitor, for the treatment of severe liver diseases. Galectin-3 is a pro-fibrotic ß-galactoside binding protein highly expressed in fibrotic livers and implicated in severe liver diseases. In a late-breaking oral presentation, which was selected as Best of the Liver Meeting in the NASH/NAFLD category, Galecto will present topline data from Part 2 of its GULLIVER-2 trial (NCT05009680), an innovative, hybrid-design 3 part study investigating the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and exploratory efficacy of GB1211 in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. In this study, GB1211 was well-tolerated, had a predictable PK profile and showed encouraging signs of clinical efficacy (liver laboratory tests and FibroScan®). The observed reductions of liver enzyme values and measurements of liver fat indicate a decrease of liver inflammation and underlying steatosis, respectively. Overall, the data suggests a positive therapeutic effect in severe cirrhosis. This trial offers strong support for further development of GB1211 in severe liver diseases. Additional information and further analysis of these data relating to the GULLIVER-2 Part 2 trial findings will also be discussed in a webinar hosted by Galecto on Monday, November 8th at 8 a.m. ET. In a separate poster presentation, Galecto will highlight findings from Parts 1 and 3 of the GULLIVER-2 trial, where preliminary data indicates that liver impairment had moderate effects on the GB1211 PK profile compared to healthy participants. In patients with decompensated cirrhosis, GB1211 was observed to be well-tolerated with no treatment-related adverse events, supporting that it can be orally administered to patients with moderate and severe liver impairment in future trials. In support of the clinical data to be presented at The Liver Meeting 2022, Galecto will also present a late-breaking preclinical poster demonstrating GB1211’s ability to inhibit galectin-3 in severe liver diseases. In this study, the efficacy of GB1211 was investigated in a high fat diet rabbit model of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)/fibrosis. GB1211 significantly reduced all measures of inflammation, fibrosis and fat compared to the control group. There were also trends for reduction in fibrotic and galectin-3 mechanistic genes (COL1A1, COL3A1, SNAI2, LGALS3, PAI-1), indicating positive effects of galectin-3 inhibition.お知らせ • Oct 20Galecto, Inc’s Galectin-3 Inhibitor GB1211 to Be Studied in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Patients with Metastatic Melanoma and Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma by Providence Cancer InstituteGalecto, Inc. announced that it has entered into a collaboration agreement for an investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial at Providence Portland Medical Center’s Earle A. Chiles Research Institute (EACRI) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GB1211, Galecto’s first-in-class, oral small molecule galectin-3 inhibitor candidate, in combination with pembrolizumab (Keytruda®). Galecto has committed to supply GB1211 for the Phase 2 trial. Galectin-3 is overexpressed in many cancers, including melanoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Increased galectin-3 expression in tumors is linked to tumor growth, invasiveness, and metastatic potential. Furthermore, increased levels of galectin-3 in the tumor microenvironment can cause checkpoint inhibitor resistance by blocking the binding of the checkpoint inhibitor antibodies, pembrolizumab and atezolizumab (Tecentriq®), to their respective targets. Preclinical data has shown that GB1211 has the ability to reduce galectin-3-induced checkpoint inhibitor blockages, thus preventing galectin-3 from inducing checkpoint inhibitor resistance. The randomized, double-blind placebo controlled, investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial will evaluate whether the addition of GB1211 increases the response rate of pembrolizumab in metastatic melanoma and HNSCC patients. The study will employ a fixed dose of GB1211 in conjunction with the standard therapeutic dose of pembrolizumab in patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma or recurrent or metastatic HNSCC progressing during or after platinum-containing chemotherapy. In addition to monitoring for toxicity and clinical response, blood and tumor samples will be obtained to assess immunologic measures relevant to galectin-3 biology and checkpoint inhibition. The Phase 2 trial is expected to begin in 2023 and top line results of the combination are expected to be reported as early as 2025.Seeking Alpha • Oct 19Galecto’s GB1211 to be studied for phase 2 trial in combination with pembrolizumab to treat cancerGalecto (NASDAQ:GLTO) said it had entered into a collaboration agreement with Providence Portland Medical Center’s Chiles Research Institute to develop GB1211 in combination with Merck's Keytruda (pembrolizumab) in patients with metastatic melanoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The MYLOX-1 trial is an ongoing Phase 2, open-label, single-arm study in myelofibrosis patients who are ineligible, refractory or intolerant to JAK inhibitor therapy. Patients receive GB2064 orally at a dose of 1000mg twice daily for nine months and undergo bone marrow biopsies at the beginning of the trial and again at months 3, 6 and 9. The primary endpoint of the ongoing MYLOX-1 trial is an assessment of safety and tolerability, while secondary endpoints focus on measurements of bone marrow fibrosis and hematological parameters. Apart from evaluating the safety and tolerability of GB2064, a key objective of the MYLOX-1 trial is to evaluate the direct anti-fibrotic activity of GB2064 by blocking lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2) in an indication that allows for repeated tissue biopsies. As part of the planned intermediate assessment of the MYLOX-1 trial, Galecto evaluated results from the first five patients who had completed at least six months of treatment with GB2064 and who had repeated bone marrow biopsies. In the intermediate assessment, four out of five evaluable myelofibrosis patients who received GB2064 monotherapy for at least six months in the MYLOX-1 trial experienced a = 1-grade reduction in collagen fibrosis of the bone marrow, an improvement suggesting that GB2064 could impact the progression of the disease and be disease modifying. All four patients who experienced a > 1-grade reduction in fibrosis score also showed stable hematological parameters (hemoglobin, white blood cell count, and thrombocytes) and stable spleen volume over the six month treatment period, and none required transfusion. Two of these patients have entered the extension phase of the study due to the clinical benefit of GB2064 as evaluated by the treating physician. GB2064 has shown a generally acceptable tolerability profile to date. Sixteen patients have been dosed with GB2064 in the MYLOX-1 trial, of which eight patients have completed or continue to receive treatment and eight patients have either discontinued treatment as a result of an adverse event or disease progression. The most commonly observed treatment-related adverse events were gastrointestinal in nature and were manageable in most patients with standard therapy. In the five patients who completed at least six months of treatment with GB2064, there were no treatment-related serious adverse events, while in the entire trial population, the only possibly treatment-related serious adverse event was a case of fall.お知らせ • Aug 30Galecto Announces Publication Supporting the Predictive Role of Galectin-3 on Overall Survival of NSCLC Patients in Peer-Reviewed Scientific JournalGalecto, Inc. announced a recent publication in the Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology,1 a peer-reviewed scientific journal, supporting the Company’s ongoing clinical programs by reinforcing the foundational galectin-3 biology underlying Galecto’s approach to the inhibition of galectin-3 for the treatment of cancer. The journal article provides confirmation for the hypothesis that high levels of galectin-3 expression have a strong correlation with tumor resistance to checkpoint inhibitors. The publication includes study data from a group of patients with varying degrees of galectin-3 expression, with patients being categorized as having either “high” or “low” levels based on their blood galectin-3 levels. Patients in the high galectin-3 expression group showed significantly shorter overall survival (1.6 vs. 12.3 months, p?=?0.018) and trends toward reduced progression-free survival (0.9 vs. 3.7 months, p?=?0.196) when compared to patients in the low galectin-3 expression group. The Company believes that the inhibition of galectin-3 by GB1211, Galecto’s selective oral small molecule candidate, could lead to an increase in the efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors in cancer patients with high galectin-3 expression. Preclinical data presented at the 2022 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting in May 2022 showed that galectin-3 may be a key cause of resistance to checkpoint inhibitors. Further, it was shown that GB1211 reversed the galectin-3 induced blockage of the checkpoint inhibitors atezolizumab and pembrolizumab and increased the effects of these checkpoint inhibitors. GB1211 is currently being evaluated in combination with atezolizumab in a Phase 2a trial for the first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Price Target Changed • Jul 31Price target decreased to US$10.00Down from US$11.00, the current price target is an average from 3 analysts.

GALLANT-1 is designed to study the combination of GB1211, Galecto's oral small molecule galectin-3 inhibitor, with Roche's PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor, atezolizumab, for the first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. Galecto anticipates topline data from GALLANT-1 in mid-2023. The initiation of GALLANT-1 continues Galecto's strategy to treat cancer and fibrotic diseases through developing targeted therapeutics. Galectin-3, the target of GB1211, is elevated in many cancers. Increased galectin-3 expression in tumors is linked to tumor growth, invasiveness and metastatic potential. Furthermore, increased levels of galectin-3 in the tumor microenvironment facilitates tumor escape from the immune response by suppressing essential T-cell functions and activating tumor-protecting macrophages. Clinical evidence from patients with NSCLC suggests that high levels of galectin-3 in tumors leads to resistance to treatment with checkpoint inhibitors. In multiple pre-clinical models, including NSCLC, GB1211 has been shown to reduce tumor growth and metastasis and increase efficacy of checkpoint inhibition. The Phase 2a trial of GB1211 in combination with Tecentriq(R) will be a 1:1 randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial in patients with NSCLC in the first line setting. Part A of GALLANT-1 will be an open-label stage in 8-12 patients to select the dose of GB1211 (200mg or 400mg twice daily) to be used with Tecentriq(R) . Part B will evaluate safety and tumor shrinkage in up to 75 patients; additionally, it will explore tumor response rate based on RECIST criteria, clinical activity and immune biomarkers. Galecto is the sponsor of the study and Roche will provide clinical supply of Tecentriq. Galecto retains all rights to GB1211 globally. About GB1211 and Galectin-3 Mechanisms in Cancer Increased galectin-3 expression in tumors is linked to tumor growth, invasiveness and metastatic potential. In the tumor tissue, galectin-3 supports the creation of fibrosis, tumor proliferation, metastasis, and immune avoidance. Galectin-3 uses a host of mechanisms including, but not limited to, VEGF, TGF-<BETA>, TYRO3, and MER-TK to increase tumor growth and metastasis. Furthermore, increased levels of galectin-3 in the tumor microenvironment facilitates tumor escape from the immune response by suppressing essential T-cell functions and activating tumor-protecting macrophages. Galectin-3-mediated immune suppression is linked to the removal of the interferon-gamma gradient and immune exhaustion via binding to LAG3 and the T-cell receptor. Further, recent data announced at the 2022 ASCO Annual Meeting suggest that galectin-3 can enhance PD-1 and PD-L1 binding and avert the interference of anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1 therapies by blocking the binding of the antibodies to their respective targets. GB1211 is designed to counter these effects. GB1211 demonstrated an anti-cancer effect and antifibrotic activity in multiple preclinical models and has successfully completed a Phase 1 trial in 78 healthy volunteers. In the Phase 1 trial, GB1211 was well-tolerated and exhibited dose-dependent pharmacokinetics. The mechanism of action is specific inhibition of the carbohydrate recognition domain of galectin-3.Price Target Changed • May 09Price target decreased to US$11.00Down from US$12.00, the current price target is an average from 3 analysts.

Completes Enrollment in Global Phase 2B GALACTIC-1 Trial of GB0139 for the Treatment of IPFGalecto, Inc. announced it has completed enrollment of patients in its Phase 2b GALACTIC-1 trial of GB0139 for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). IPF is a life-threatening, rapidly progressing and irreversible disease causing scarring of the lungs and significantly impairing lung function. IPF affects approximately 100,000 people in the United States and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, imposing substantial challenges for healthcare systems worldwide. The current standard of care treatment options for IPF have only been shown to have a modest impact on slowing the progression of the disease and have been associated with significant side effects, leading to poor therapeutic adherence. GALACTIC-1 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter Phase 2b study being conducted across approximately 100 centers globally. The study is designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of Galecto’s most advanced compound, GB0139, in 141 patients with IPF. Patients in GALACTIC-1 are randomized (2:1) to either receive GB0139 or placebo. Patients in the GB0139 group receive a 3mg dose of GB0139 once daily for 52 weeks. The primary endpoint of the trial is to assess the annual rate of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC). Reduction in the decline of FVC was accepted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as primary endpoint for the approval of the current standard of care treatments for IPF: nintedanib, marketed as Ofev® by Boehringer Ingelheim, and pirfenidone, marketed as Esbriet® by Roche/Genentech.お知らせ • Mar 30Galecto Completes Enrollment in Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 Trial of its Selective, Oral Galectin-3 Inhibitor GB1211 in Liver CirrhosisGalecto, Inc. announced it has completed enrollment in Parts 2 and 3 of its ongoing 3-part Phase 1b/2a trial of GB1211, GULLIVER-2, in liver cirrhosis. GB1211 is a selective, oral small molecule inhibitor of galectin-3 being studied in liver cirrhosis, a severe, progressive disease that ultimately leads to liver failure, and for which there are limited treatment options. GULLIVER-2 is an innovative hybrid trial, combining a hepatic impairment trial of safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (Parts 1 and 3) and a Phase 2 trial to examine safety and demonstrate effects of GB1211 on hepatic function, inflammation, coagulation and fibrosis (Part 2). This novel trial design is intended to provide a holistic view of the safety, pharmacokinetics, liver function and liver-related parameters of GB1211 in this vulnerable patient population with significant unmet needs. Part 1 of the GULLIVER-2 trial, which was designed to measure the pharmacokinetics of GB1211 in patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class B) as compared to healthy volunteers, was completed in December 2021. GB1211 was found to be well-tolerated with no drug-related serious adverse events. Part 2 of the trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cohort in 30 patients with liver cirrhosis and moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class B). This part of the trial is designed to observe the safety and tolerability of GB1211 over 12 weeks while also measuring fibrosis biomarkers, hepatic function, inflammation, and coagulation parameters, as well as detecting fibrosis using transient elastography ultrasound. Part 3 of the trial is an open-label cohort in 6 patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class C) and 6 matched healthy volunteers that is designed to examine the pharmacokinetics and safety and tolerability of GB1211. Galectin-3 plays a key role in fibrosis development through cellular activation and collagen production, and Galecto has demonstrated that inhibiting the galectin-3 target with GB1211 protects liver cells and reduces fibrosis in multiple animal models including models of liver fibrosis. Galectin-3 is elevated in cirrhosis patients and is a prognostic biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma, a known complication of liver cirrhosis. Liver cirrhosis is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and imposes a substantial health burden on many countries. It is estimated that more than 100 million patients suffer from liver cirrhosis worldwide. Currently, there are no approved disease-modifying therapies and liver transplantation remains the sole option for late-stage liver cirrhosis.分析記事 • Mar 10Is Galecto (NASDAQ:GLTO) In A Good Position To Deliver On Growth Plans?There's no doubt that money can be made by owning shares of unprofitable businesses.

Galectin-3 plays a key role in COVID-19-related acute lung injury, cytokine storm, T-cell exhaustion and organ micro-thrombosis, and the results from this trial suggest that GB0139 has the potential for treatment of viral induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute lung injury (ALI). The study met its primary endpoint of safety as there were no observed treatment-related adverse events. Despite patients having a mean age of 65 years, mean BMI of 32, multiple comorbidities, and being breathless, all patients were able to effectively inhale GB0139 and achieve pharmacologically relevant plasma levels. Target engagement was confirmed with a statistically significant reduction (p<0.01) in serum galectin-3 levels. The study showed that GB0139 on top of standard of care may rapidly decrease markers of inflammation linked to the cytokine storm, inflammation-associated micro-thrombosis and those of short or long-term fibrosis. Patients treated with GB0139 had a significantly greater rate of decline in oxygen requirement versus standard of care alone and showed other signs of reduced organ damage. These effects were further accentuated in a subgroup of patients with moderate-to-severe disease who were at higher clinical risk. These patients showed multiple signs of improved immune-mediated viral responses as well as decreased lymphocyte exhaustion and decreased level of profibrotic macrophages. A 21% reduction of mortality was observed in this subgroup of patients at high clinical risk. The GALACTIC-1 trial is a Phase 2b, 52-week randomized, double-blind, multicenter, parallel, placebo-controlled trial investigating the safety and efficacy of GB0139 (3mg) in patients with IPF, with the rate of decline of forced vital capacity (FVC) as the primary endpoint. Based on blinded FVC (lung function) data from patients in this trial, the Company has determined that it may be possible to demonstrate a meaningful effect with fewer than the planned target of up to 210 randomized patients. As a result of this statistical analysis, the Company plans to seek regulatory approval of a protocol amendment to reduce the target patient population for the GALACTIC-1 trial, which would enable Galecto to maintain the cost structure of the trial and report topline results in mid-2023. In this open-label trial 41 patients were randomized to receive either standard of care, which included treatments such as steroids, heparin, remdesivir and tocilizumab (n=21), or inhaled GB0139 (dosed at 10 mg twice a day for 2 days and subsequently once a day for up to 14 days) plus standard of care (n=20), to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GB0139, pharmacokinetics, and its effects on clinical outcomes and biomarkers. Patients had a mean age of 65 years, mean BMI of 32, multiple comorbidities, and were hospitalized and needed oxygen therapy, but did not require mechanical ventilation.お知らせ • Dec 21Galecto Provides Enrollment Update on Phase 2a MYLOX-1 Trial and Reiterates Expected Timing of Multiple Data Readouts in 2022Galecto, Inc. announced it has enrolled 10 of the anticipated 16 patients in its Phase 2a trial of its oral LOXL2 inhibitor GB2064 in myelofibrosis. The open label MYLOX-1 trial (NCT04679870) is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of orally administered GB2064 in 16 patients over 9 months. The trial will also assess the impact on fibrosis and quantification of the tissue targeting of GB2064, as well as other aspects of clinical response in myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis is a type of bone marrow cancer that causes scarring in the bone marrow and disrupts the body’s normal production of blood cells, which can lead to multiple negative impacts and a significantly reduced quality of life and mortality. LOXL2 is an enzyme that plays a key role in myelofibrosis and contributes to the fibrotic progression in this disease. Galecto’s LOXL2 inhibitor, GB2064, has demonstrated potent inhibition of LOXL2 activity in cell-based assays and preclinical models and has successfully completed Phase 1 studies in healthy volunteers.Seeking Alpha • Dec 19Galecto: Selling At Cash ValueToday, we offer up our first look at a small developmental company based in Europe called Galecto.

GB1211 was observed to be well-tolerated, there were no drug-related serious adverse events, and exposure was only moderately increased in the Child-Pugh class B patients. Accordingly, no dose adjustment is required for Part 2 of the trial in patients with moderate hepatic impairment. Galecto has also initiated Part 2 of the trial, which is a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial designed to assess the effect of 12-week dosing of GB1211 on a wide series of biological markers of hepatic function and structure in participants with moderate hepatic impairment. The Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 trial is the first in Galecto’s clinical program for GB1211 in liver cirrhosis. Liver cirrhosis represents a significant unmet medical need for which there is no currently approved disease modifying therapy. The GULLIVER-2 trial (NCT05009680) is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and potential activity of GB1211 in up to 54 participants, including liver cirrhosis patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classes B and C). In Part 2 of the trial, Child-Pugh class B liver cirrhosis patients of any etiology will be randomized to evaluate the impact of GB1211 on liver fibrosis and liver function. Galectin-3 plays a key role in fibrosis development through cellular activation and the production of collagen, and Galecto has demonstrated that inhibiting the galectin-3 target with GB1211 reduces fibrosis in multiple animal models including models of liver fibrosis. Galectin-3 is elevated in cirrhosis patients and is a prognostic biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma, a known complication of liver cirrhosis. It is estimated that more than 100 million patients suffer from liver cirrhosis worldwide and the mortality rate is high. There are no approved disease modifying therapies and liver transplantation remains the sole option for late stage liver cirrhosis. Galecto is developing GB1211, a proprietary orally available potent small molecule galectin-3 inhibitor. GB1211 has the potential to treat multiple types of cancer and fibrotic diseases. Galecto’s initial target indications for GB1211 are NSCLC, a cancer indication with a high unmet need, and liver cirrhosis, a severe, progressive disease that ultimately leads to liver failure. GB1211 demonstrated an anti-cancer effect and antifibrotic activity in multiple preclinical models and has successfully completed a Phase 1 trial in 78 healthy volunteers. In the Phase 1 trial, GB1211 was well-tolerated and had dose-dependent pharmacokinetics. Galectin-3 has been shown to play a central role in fibrotic diseases, including liver cirrhosis. Preclinical evidence suggests that galectin-3 is required for TGF-beta-mediated activation of myofibroblasts and subsequent matrix production in liver fibrosis. Inhibition of galectin-3 reduces YKL-40, a chitin-like glycoprotein biomarker of liver fibrosis, and reduces the development of fibrosis.分析記事 • Nov 18We're Keeping An Eye On Galecto's (NASDAQ:GLTO) Cash Burn RateEven when a business is losing money, it's possible for shareholders to make money if they buy a good business at the...お知らせ • Sep 14Galecto Announces First Patient Treated in Phase 2 Trial of Oral Galectin-3 Inhibitor Gb1211 in Liver CirrhosisGalecto, Inc. announced that the first patient has been treated with the galectin-3 inhibitor GB1211 in the Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 trial. This trial marks the initiation of Galecto’s clinical program for GB1211 in liver cirrhosis. Top line data from the full trial is expected in the second half of 2022. The GULLIVER-2 trial (NCT05009680) will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of GB1211 in up to 54 participants, including liver cirrhosis patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh classes B and C). The trial will randomize liver cirrhosis patients of any etiology and evaluate the impact of GB1211 on liver fibrosis and liver function.

Announces First Patient Treated in Phase 2a Trial of the Oral LOXL2 Inhibitor Gb2064 in Myelofibrosis (The MYLOX-1 Trial)Galecto, Inc. announced the treatment of the first patient in a Phase 2a trial of its oral LOXL2 inhibitor GB2064 in myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis, a form of chronic leukemia, is a rare type of blood cancer in which the normal bone marrow is destroyed by fibrous scar tissue that does not produce blood cells. The open label MYLOX-1 trial is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of orally administered GB2064 in 16 patients over 9 months. The trial will also assess impact on fibrosis and quantification of the tissue targeting of GB2064, as well as other aspects of clinical response in myelofibrosis. The current standard of care for myelofibrosis is JAK inhibitors, but questions remain regarding side effects caused by the mechanism of action. LOXL-2 is an attractive target, as it is upregulated in myelofibrosis fibrotic tissue and plays a key role in fibrosis and disease progression in the tumor micro-environment. Focused inhibition of LOXL-2 is believed to be inherently safer than pan-inhibition of all LOX enzymes because some of the iso-enzymes potentially carry important liabilities. Galecto successfully completed the Phase 1 SAD/MAD study of GB2064 in healthy volunteers without observing any safety issues.お知らせ • Jul 15Galecto Resumes Recruitment in Phase 2b Global GALACTIC-1 Trial of GB0139 for Idiopathic Pulmonary FibrosisGalecto, Inc. announced that it has resumed recruitment in its Phase 2b GALACTIC-1 trial of GB0139 for the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis under a revised protocol that was submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory bodies, including those in Australia, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom. Following the recommendation from an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board in March 2021 to modify the GALACTIC-1 trial protocol, 38 patients continued treatment in this Phase 2b trial. Under the revised protocol, the company is now recruiting additional patients who are not taking nintedanib or pirfenidone at screening, who will be randomized 2:1 to receive either GB0139 3 mg or placebo. GALACTIC-1 is a 52-week randomized, double-blind, multicenter, parallel, placebo-controlled Phase 2b trial being conducted across more than 100 centers globally, investigating the safety and efficacy of company’s lead inhaled compound, GB0139, in up to 210 patients with IPF. The revised trial design retains the same statistical powering to assess the primary endpoint of forced vital capacity decline over 52 weeks. The company anticipates that topline data from the GALACTIC-1 trial will be available by mid-2023.分析記事 • Jul 07Here's Why We're Watching Galecto's (NASDAQ:GLTO) Cash Burn SituationEven when a business is losing money, it's possible for shareholders to make money if they buy a good business at the...お知らせ • Jun 23Galecto, Inc. Announces Preliminary Topline Results from Galectin-3 Inhibitor GB0139Galecto, Inc. announced preliminary topline results from an investigator-initiated trial examining Galecto’s inhaled galectin-3 inhibitor (GB0139). This trial included 41 hospitalized patients with COVID-19 infection who did not require mechanical ventilation, of which 20 were randomized to the GB0139 arm. GB0139, dosed at 10 mg twice a day for 2 days and subsequently once a day for up to 14 days, showed a favorable safety profile with no treatment-related serious adverse events reported. GB0139 had a positive trend on acute lung injury related to COVID-19, as patients who received GB0139 showed signs of improved lung function with a significant decline in oxygen flow requirements compared to patients only receiving standard of care (SOC), which included dexamethasone, remdesivir and anticoagulant therapy. GB0139 showed target engagement by reducing galectin-3 levels compared to SOC (p < 0.01). Patients with COVID-19 were able to inhale GB0139 and achieve consistent exposure of GB0139 at levels previously associated with systemic biomarker responses in IPF patients (including YKL-40 and PAI-1). Patients showed improved inflammation and coagulation biomarkers, including CXCL10, thrombocytes and reduced D-dimers, as well as improved biomarkers of liver function and tissue damage. While the severity of the disease at baseline was worse in patients receiving GB0139, these patients had similar outcomes to patients receiving only SOC.分析記事 • Mar 23We Think Galecto (NASDAQ:GLTO) Can Afford To Drive Business GrowthJust because a business does not make any money, does not mean that the stock will go down.

On March 12, the DSMB recommended that, based upon a safety analysis of the data, the company discontinue dosing and enrolling patients in the 10 mg arm along with patients in the 3 mg arm who are receiving combination treatment with the currently approved treatments of IPF, nintedanib and pirfenidone. GALACTIC-1 is a 52-week randomized, double-blind, multicenter, parallel, placebo-controlled Phase 2b study being conducted across more than 100 centers globally, investigating the safety and efficacy of Galecto’s lead compound, GB0139, in patients with IPF. Initial unblinded data readout is anticipated in 2022. The DSMB informed the company, based on unblinded safety and efficacy data, that there was an imbalance in the serious adverse experiences across the study groups, but not an imbalance between the groups in mortality. Galecto expects to continue recruiting patients who are not taking nintedanib or pirfenidone at screening and who would be randomized to receive GB0139 3 mg or placebo. The DSMB recommended the patients randomized to the 10mg group and all those taking nintedanib or pirfenidone should be discontinued from the study. Based on these recommendations, the Company plans to work with both the study investigators and the appropriate regulatory authorities to implement these changes promptly.Is New 90 Day High Low • Feb 13New 90-day low: US$11.99The company is down 28% from its price of US$16.71 on 13 November 2020.

ライブニュース • May 15Damora Therapeutics Posts US$27.8 Million Loss With New CEO and Expanded Pipeline PlansDamora Therapeutics reported a Q1 2026 net loss of $27.8m tied to higher R&D spending and acquisitions that expanded its mutCALR-targeted pipeline for myeloproliferative neoplasms. The company raised about $295.5m in net proceeds from a February 2026 public offering and ended the quarter with $532.9m to $533m in cash and equivalents, with management indicating funding into 2029. Damora appointed Jennifer Jarrett as President and CEO, reshaped its finance leadership and board, and outlined plans to file regulatory submissions for DMR-001 by mid-2026, followed by DMR-002 and DMR-003 through 2027, with initial clinical data expected from mid-2027. Taken together, the larger loss, cash raise and leadership overhaul all point to a company leaning hard into early-stage pipeline build-out and clinical execution over near-term profitability. For investors, the key questions are whether the cash runway, execution on IND timelines and early readouts on DMR-001, DMR-002 and DMR-003 will justify the ongoing R&D spend and any future dilution risk.

New Risk • Feb 12New major risk - Shareholder dilutionThe company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Over 44x increase in shares outstanding. This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (19% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 39% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (over 44x increase in shares outstanding).

New Risk • Dec 01New major risk - Revenue and earnings growthEarnings are forecast to decline by an average of 47% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns.

Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook.

お知らせ • May 02Galecto, Inc. Announces First Patient Dosed in an Investigator-Initiated Phase 2 Trial of GB1211 in Combination with PembrolizumabGalecto, Inc. announced that the first patient has been enrolled in an investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial to evaluate GB1211, Galecto’s first-in-class, oral small molecule galectin-3 inhibitor candidate, at the Earle A. Chiles Research Institute (EACRI), a division of Providence Cancer Institute in Portland, Oregon, USA. Under the direction of Providence investigators Dr. Brendan Curti and Dr. William Redmond, the study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GB1211 at a dose of 100mg twice daily in combination with pembrolizumab for the treatment of metastatic malignant melanoma (MM) and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Drs. Curti and Redmond received an R01 Research Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, for their investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial. Galecto has committed to supply GB1211 for the trial. Galectin-3 is overexpressed in many cancers, including melanoma and HNSCC. Increased galectin-3 expression in tumors is linked to tumor growth, invasiveness and metastatic potential. Furthermore, increased levels of galectin-3 in the tumor microenvironment can cause checkpoint inhibitor resistance by blocking the binding of the checkpoint inhibitor antibodies, pembrolizumab and atezolizumab (Tecentriq®), to their respective targets. Preclinical data has shown that GB1211 has the ability to reduce galectin-3 associated interference with immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI), thus alleviating galectin-3-specific ICI resistance. In the fourth quarter of 2023, Galecto reported topline results from its Phase 1b/2a GALLANT-1 clinical trial evaluating GB1211 twice daily in combination with atezolizumab for the first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Galecto reported that investigator-assessed objective tumor responses (defined as partial responses per RECIST criteria 1.1) were observed in three of five patients (60%) who received the recommended Phase 2 dose level of GB1211 100 mg for at least three weeks. Historically, response rates of only 22–38% have been observed with atezolizumab monotherapy in the first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC, suggesting a potential benefit of adding GB1211 to ICI. The randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled, investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial will evaluate whether the addition of GB1211 increases the response rate of pembrolizumab in metastatic melanoma and HNSCC patients. The study will employ a fixed dose of GB1211 in conjunction with the standard therapeutic dose of pembrolizumab in patients with unresectable or metastatic MM or recurrent or metastatic HNSCC progressing during or after platinum-containing chemotherapy. In addition to monitoring for toxicity and clinical response, biospecimens will be obtained to assess immunologic measures relevant to galectin biology and T-cell checkpoint inhibition. Tumor volume will be assessed by immune response RECIST criteria (iRECIST criteria 1.1). It is anticipated that early data from this trial could be available as early as 2025.

お知らせ • Dec 22Galecto, Inc. Announces Positive Topline Results from A Phase 2A Trial of GB2064 for the Treatment of MyelofibrosisGalecto, Inc. announced positive topline results from a Phase 2a trial of GB2064 for the treatment of myelofibrosis. The MYLOX-1 trial dosed a total of 18 myelofibrosis patients, of which 11 (61%) patients had previously received janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) therapy with ruxolitinib, with eight of those patients being refractory and three being intolerant to JAKi therapy. Six out of ten evaluable myelofibrosis patients who received GB2064 monotherapy for at least six months experienced a = 1-grade reduction in collagen fibrosis of the bone marrow, an improvement suggesting that GB2064 could impact the progression of the disease and be disease-modifying. Fibrosis is a key disease mechanism of myelofibrosis that destroys bone marrow function. Reducing fibrosis is required to slow the progression of the disease. Bone marrow biopsies taken during the study showed that GB2064 penetrated the bone marrow and could exert its anti-fibrotic effect directly in the disease compartment. Furthermore, GB2064 demonstrated target engagement systemically by binding to LOXL2 in plasma. All six patients who experienced a > 1-grade reduction in bone marrow fibrosis score also showed stable hematological parameters, including hemoglobin, white blood cell count and platelets. At six months of treatment, one patient obtained a =35% reduction in spleen volume, two patients reduced their Total Symptom Score (TSS) by more than 50% and one patient had an anemia response. Four of these patients have entered the extension phase of the study due to the clinical benefit derived from GB2064 as evaluated by the treating physician, with one patient receiving treatment for more than 30 months. GB2064 showed a generally acceptable tolerability profile in the MYLOX-1 trial. Eighteen patients were dosed with GB2064 monotherapy in the MYLOX-1 trial. Eight patients completed treatment in the core phase of the MYLOX-1 trial and ten patients discontinued treatment due to an adverse event or disease progression. The most commonly observed treatment-related adverse events were gastrointestinal in nature and were manageable in most patients with standard therapy. The only treatment-related serious adverse event was a case of fall, which was assessed as possibly related to GB2064 by the investigator.
お知らせ • Oct 24Galecto, Inc. Presents Updated Clinical Data At ESMO Congress 2023 and Provides Update on Phase 1B/2A Gallant-1 TrialGalecto, Inc. presented a poster with new and encouraging clinical data, including two additional partial responders, from the dose-finding Part A of its Phase 1b/2a trial (NCT05240131) (the GALLANT-1 trial) at the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2023 in Madrid, Spain. The GALLANT-1 trial is designed to study the combination of atezolizumab (Tecentriq®?) and GB1211, Galecto's first-in-class, oral small-molecule galectin-3 inhibitor candidate, in the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic/advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). At the recommended Phase 2 dose level of 100 mg GB1211 twice daily, investigator-assessed objective tumor responses (defined as partial responses per RECIST criteria 1.1) were observed in three of five patients (60%) who received GB1211 for at least three weeks. Response rates of only 22-38% have been observed with atezolizumab monotherapy in the first- line treatment of advanced NSCLC, suggesting a potential benefit of adding GB1211 to atezolizumab. The Company believes that GALLANT-1 is the first clinical trial to show that combining an oral galectin-3 inhibitor with a checkpoint inhibitor may enhance the effect of checkpoint inhibitors. In addition, insights from early biomarker analyses revealed a trend showing that responders had increased levels of galectin-3 at baseline, and stable or decreasing galectin-3 levels during treatment. In contrast, patients with progressive disease demonstrated increasing levels of galectin- 3 during treatment. Galecto will continue to supply GB1211 100 mg for the upcoming investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial at Providence Portland Medical Center's Earle A. Chiles Research Institute (EACRI). This trial, which is expected to be initiated in early 2024, will evaluate the safety and efficacy of GB1211 in combination with pembrolizumab (Keytruda®?). Galecto plans to explore external options for partnering and/or funding additional oncology-focused activities for GB1211 as part of its strategic alternative process.
お知らせ • Oct 05Galecto Receives a Deficiency Letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock MarketOn September 27, 2023, Galecto, Inc. received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock has been below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Select Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). The Nasdaq deficiency letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock, and its common stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “GLTO” at this time, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other continued listing requirements. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been given 180 calendar days, or until March 25, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If at any time before March 25, 2024, the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the Staff will provide written confirmation that the Company has achieved compliance. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by March 25, 2024, the Company may be afforded a second 180 calendar day period to regain compliance. To qualify, the Company would be required to transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market and meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, except for the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. In addition, the Company would be required to notify Nasdaq of its intent to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period. Following a transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company expects that it would be afforded the second 180 calendar day period to regain compliance, unless it does not appear to Nasdaq that it is possible for the Company to cure the deficiency. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by the end of the compliance period (or the second compliance period, if applicable), the Company’s common stock will become subject to delisting. In the event that the Company receives notice that its common stock is being delisted, the Nasdaq listing rules permit the Company to appeal a delisting determination by the Staff to a hearings panel. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and may, if appropriate, consider available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, including initiating a reverse stock split. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq Listing Rules.

お知らせ • Aug 17Galecto Announces Topline Results from Phase 2b GALACTIC-1 Trial of GB0139 for the Treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary FibrosisGalecto, Inc. announced topline results from its Phase 2b GALACTIC-1 trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of inhaled GB0139 for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The GALACTIC-1 trial did not meet its primary endpoint of change from baseline in rate of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC). Based on the results of the GALACTIC-1 trial, Galecto plans to discontinue development of GB0139. Going forward, Galecto will focus on development opportunities for the treatment of severe liver diseases. The GALACTIC-1 trial (NCT03832946) enrolled 173 patients who were not receiving pirfenidone or nintedanib, the current standard of care for IPF. The trial compared treatment with the inhaled 3 mg dose of GB0139 to placebo (randomized 2:1) over 52 weeks. The GALACTIC-1 trial did not meet its primary endpoint of change from baseline in rate of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC) at week 52. Levels of galectin-3 increased from day 0 to week 52 in both the placebo and active GB0139 3 mg arms, and thus there was no confirmation of target engagement in the trial. The mean change in FVC from baseline to week 52 was -316.6 ml in the GB0139 3 mg arm compared to -127.4 ml in the placebo arm (placebo-corrected difference of -189.2 ml; 95% CI -311.28 to -67.10 ml). The observed decrease in lung function in the placebo group was lower than similar placebo groups reported in previous IPF trials with other drugs. In the safety analysis, Galecto observed a significant amount of IPF-like treatment-emergent adverse events in the active GB0139 arm commensurate with FVC development. The most common adverse events included cough, dyspnea and COVID-19. Treatment-emergent serious adverse events, which included worsening of IPF, were observed in 7.8% of patients in the GB0139 group and 1.4% of patients in the placebo group. Adverse events leading to death were similar in both groups. Galecto intends to work in close collaboration with external experts to analyze the results observed in the placebo arm of the GALACTIC-1 trial. Additionally, Galecto plans to communicate the results of the GALACTIC-1 trial at an upcoming medical conference. Galecto previously announced that it had concluded a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Type C meeting centered around the continued development of GB1211, Galecto’s oral galectin-3 inhibitor product candidate for the treatment of compensated and decompensated cirrhosis. As a result of this meeting and in accordance with guidance received from the FDA, Galecto’s next step in the development of GB1211 is to initiate a long-term, randomized, placebo-controlled, Phase 2a trial in patients with decompensated NASH cirrhosis, which will evaluate efficacy and tolerability at additional dose levels. This trial, referred to as the GULLIVER-3 trial, is expected to be initiated in early 2024, subject to obtaining additional financing. Galectin-3 and LOXL2 have been shown to be critical drivers of fibrotic disease pathogenesis and are associated with severe liver disease and poor outcomes. Galecto previously announced topline results from its Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 trial of GB1211, its orally available galectin-3 inhibitor, for the treatment of decompensated cirrhosis. Topline results from the GULLIVER-2 trial showed statistically significant reductions in liver enzymes (AST, ALT and GGT) and other positive biomarker effects after 12 weeks of treatment, as well as a reduction in MELD score. GB1211 also exhibited a favorable tolerability profile in this trial.
New Risk • Aug 03New minor risk - Shareholder dilutionThe company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 6.8% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$38m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 16% per year for the foreseeable future. Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$132m net loss in 3 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (6.8% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$72.0m market cap).
New Risk • Jul 26New major risk - Share price stabilityThe company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of American stocks, typically moving 16% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$45m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 11% per year for the foreseeable future.

お知らせ • Nov 01Galecto to Present Topline Data from GULLIVER-2 Clinical Trial Showing GB1211 Reduced Signs of Liver Impairment at AASLD’s The Liver Meeting® 2022Galecto, Inc. announced it will present data from its recently completed Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 trial at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases’ (AASLD) The Liver Meeting 2022 being held in Washington, D.C. on November 4-8, 2022. GULLIVER-2 is a clinical trial designed to assess GB1211, an orally available and high-affinity small molecule carbohydrate-based galectin-3 inhibitor, for the treatment of severe liver diseases. Galectin-3 is a pro-fibrotic ß-galactoside binding protein highly expressed in fibrotic livers and implicated in severe liver diseases. In a late-breaking oral presentation, which was selected as Best of the Liver Meeting in the NASH/NAFLD category, Galecto will present topline data from Part 2 of its GULLIVER-2 trial (NCT05009680), an innovative, hybrid-design 3 part study investigating the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and exploratory efficacy of GB1211 in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. In this study, GB1211 was well-tolerated, had a predictable PK profile and showed encouraging signs of clinical efficacy (liver laboratory tests and FibroScan®). The observed reductions of liver enzyme values and measurements of liver fat indicate a decrease of liver inflammation and underlying steatosis, respectively. Overall, the data suggests a positive therapeutic effect in severe cirrhosis. This trial offers strong support for further development of GB1211 in severe liver diseases. Additional information and further analysis of these data relating to the GULLIVER-2 Part 2 trial findings will also be discussed in a webinar hosted by Galecto on Monday, November 8th at 8 a.m. ET. In a separate poster presentation, Galecto will highlight findings from Parts 1 and 3 of the GULLIVER-2 trial, where preliminary data indicates that liver impairment had moderate effects on the GB1211 PK profile compared to healthy participants. In patients with decompensated cirrhosis, GB1211 was observed to be well-tolerated with no treatment-related adverse events, supporting that it can be orally administered to patients with moderate and severe liver impairment in future trials. In support of the clinical data to be presented at The Liver Meeting 2022, Galecto will also present a late-breaking preclinical poster demonstrating GB1211’s ability to inhibit galectin-3 in severe liver diseases. In this study, the efficacy of GB1211 was investigated in a high fat diet rabbit model of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)/fibrosis. GB1211 significantly reduced all measures of inflammation, fibrosis and fat compared to the control group. There were also trends for reduction in fibrotic and galectin-3 mechanistic genes (COL1A1, COL3A1, SNAI2, LGALS3, PAI-1), indicating positive effects of galectin-3 inhibition.
お知らせ • Oct 20Galecto, Inc’s Galectin-3 Inhibitor GB1211 to Be Studied in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Patients with Metastatic Melanoma and Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma by Providence Cancer InstituteGalecto, Inc. announced that it has entered into a collaboration agreement for an investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial at Providence Portland Medical Center’s Earle A. Chiles Research Institute (EACRI) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GB1211, Galecto’s first-in-class, oral small molecule galectin-3 inhibitor candidate, in combination with pembrolizumab (Keytruda®). Galecto has committed to supply GB1211 for the Phase 2 trial. Galectin-3 is overexpressed in many cancers, including melanoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Increased galectin-3 expression in tumors is linked to tumor growth, invasiveness, and metastatic potential. Furthermore, increased levels of galectin-3 in the tumor microenvironment can cause checkpoint inhibitor resistance by blocking the binding of the checkpoint inhibitor antibodies, pembrolizumab and atezolizumab (Tecentriq®), to their respective targets. Preclinical data has shown that GB1211 has the ability to reduce galectin-3-induced checkpoint inhibitor blockages, thus preventing galectin-3 from inducing checkpoint inhibitor resistance. The randomized, double-blind placebo controlled, investigator-initiated Phase 2 trial will evaluate whether the addition of GB1211 increases the response rate of pembrolizumab in metastatic melanoma and HNSCC patients. The study will employ a fixed dose of GB1211 in conjunction with the standard therapeutic dose of pembrolizumab in patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma or recurrent or metastatic HNSCC progressing during or after platinum-containing chemotherapy. In addition to monitoring for toxicity and clinical response, blood and tumor samples will be obtained to assess immunologic measures relevant to galectin-3 biology and checkpoint inhibition. The Phase 2 trial is expected to begin in 2023 and top line results of the combination are expected to be reported as early as 2025.

お知らせ • Sep 30+ 1 more updateGalecto, Inc Announces Results from A Planned Intermediate Assessment of the Ongoing Phase 2A Trial of GB2064, a LOXL2 Inhibitor Product Candidate, for the Treatment of MyelofibrosisOn September 29, 2022, Galecto, Inc. announcing results from a planned intermediate assessment of the ongoing Phase 2a trial of GB2064, a LOXL2 inhibitor product candidate, for the treatment of myelofibrosis (the “MYLOX-1 trial”). A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The MYLOX-1 trial is an ongoing Phase 2, open-label, single-arm study in myelofibrosis patients who are ineligible, refractory or intolerant to JAK inhibitor therapy. Patients receive GB2064 orally at a dose of 1000mg twice daily for nine months and undergo bone marrow biopsies at the beginning of the trial and again at months 3, 6 and 9. The primary endpoint of the ongoing MYLOX-1 trial is an assessment of safety and tolerability, while secondary endpoints focus on measurements of bone marrow fibrosis and hematological parameters. Apart from evaluating the safety and tolerability of GB2064, a key objective of the MYLOX-1 trial is to evaluate the direct anti-fibrotic activity of GB2064 by blocking lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2) in an indication that allows for repeated tissue biopsies. As part of the planned intermediate assessment of the MYLOX-1 trial, Galecto evaluated results from the first five patients who had completed at least six months of treatment with GB2064 and who had repeated bone marrow biopsies. In the intermediate assessment, four out of five evaluable myelofibrosis patients who received GB2064 monotherapy for at least six months in the MYLOX-1 trial experienced a = 1-grade reduction in collagen fibrosis of the bone marrow, an improvement suggesting that GB2064 could impact the progression of the disease and be disease modifying. All four patients who experienced a > 1-grade reduction in fibrosis score also showed stable hematological parameters (hemoglobin, white blood cell count, and thrombocytes) and stable spleen volume over the six month treatment period, and none required transfusion. Two of these patients have entered the extension phase of the study due to the clinical benefit of GB2064 as evaluated by the treating physician. GB2064 has shown a generally acceptable tolerability profile to date. Sixteen patients have been dosed with GB2064 in the MYLOX-1 trial, of which eight patients have completed or continue to receive treatment and eight patients have either discontinued treatment as a result of an adverse event or disease progression. The most commonly observed treatment-related adverse events were gastrointestinal in nature and were manageable in most patients with standard therapy. In the five patients who completed at least six months of treatment with GB2064, there were no treatment-related serious adverse events, while in the entire trial population, the only possibly treatment-related serious adverse event was a case of fall.
お知らせ • Aug 30Galecto Announces Publication Supporting the Predictive Role of Galectin-3 on Overall Survival of NSCLC Patients in Peer-Reviewed Scientific JournalGalecto, Inc. announced a recent publication in the Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology,1 a peer-reviewed scientific journal, supporting the Company’s ongoing clinical programs by reinforcing the foundational galectin-3 biology underlying Galecto’s approach to the inhibition of galectin-3 for the treatment of cancer. The journal article provides confirmation for the hypothesis that high levels of galectin-3 expression have a strong correlation with tumor resistance to checkpoint inhibitors. The publication includes study data from a group of patients with varying degrees of galectin-3 expression, with patients being categorized as having either “high” or “low” levels based on their blood galectin-3 levels. Patients in the high galectin-3 expression group showed significantly shorter overall survival (1.6 vs. 12.3 months, p?=?0.018) and trends toward reduced progression-free survival (0.9 vs. 3.7 months, p?=?0.196) when compared to patients in the low galectin-3 expression group. The Company believes that the inhibition of galectin-3 by GB1211, Galecto’s selective oral small molecule candidate, could lead to an increase in the efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors in cancer patients with high galectin-3 expression. Preclinical data presented at the 2022 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting in May 2022 showed that galectin-3 may be a key cause of resistance to checkpoint inhibitors. Further, it was shown that GB1211 reversed the galectin-3 induced blockage of the checkpoint inhibitors atezolizumab and pembrolizumab and increased the effects of these checkpoint inhibitors. GB1211 is currently being evaluated in combination with atezolizumab in a Phase 2a trial for the first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

お知らせ • Jun 17Galecto Announces First Patient Enrolled in Phase 2 Trial of Gb1211 in Combination with Atezolizumab for First-Line Treatment of NsclcGalecto, Inc. announced that the first patient has been enrolled in the Phase 2a GALLANT-1 trial. GALLANT-1 is designed to study the combination of GB1211, Galecto's oral small molecule galectin-3 inhibitor, with Roche's PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor, atezolizumab, for the first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. Galecto anticipates topline data from GALLANT-1 in mid-2023. The initiation of GALLANT-1 continues Galecto's strategy to treat cancer and fibrotic diseases through developing targeted therapeutics. Galectin-3, the target of GB1211, is elevated in many cancers. Increased galectin-3 expression in tumors is linked to tumor growth, invasiveness and metastatic potential. Furthermore, increased levels of galectin-3 in the tumor microenvironment facilitates tumor escape from the immune response by suppressing essential T-cell functions and activating tumor-protecting macrophages. Clinical evidence from patients with NSCLC suggests that high levels of galectin-3 in tumors leads to resistance to treatment with checkpoint inhibitors. In multiple pre-clinical models, including NSCLC, GB1211 has been shown to reduce tumor growth and metastasis and increase efficacy of checkpoint inhibition. The Phase 2a trial of GB1211 in combination with Tecentriq(R) will be a 1:1 randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial in patients with NSCLC in the first line setting. Part A of GALLANT-1 will be an open-label stage in 8-12 patients to select the dose of GB1211 (200mg or 400mg twice daily) to be used with Tecentriq(R) . Part B will evaluate safety and tumor shrinkage in up to 75 patients; additionally, it will explore tumor response rate based on RECIST criteria, clinical activity and immune biomarkers. Galecto is the sponsor of the study and Roche will provide clinical supply of Tecentriq. Galecto retains all rights to GB1211 globally. About GB1211 and Galectin-3 Mechanisms in Cancer Increased galectin-3 expression in tumors is linked to tumor growth, invasiveness and metastatic potential. In the tumor tissue, galectin-3 supports the creation of fibrosis, tumor proliferation, metastasis, and immune avoidance. Galectin-3 uses a host of mechanisms including, but not limited to, VEGF, TGF-<BETA>, TYRO3, and MER-TK to increase tumor growth and metastasis. Furthermore, increased levels of galectin-3 in the tumor microenvironment facilitates tumor escape from the immune response by suppressing essential T-cell functions and activating tumor-protecting macrophages. Galectin-3-mediated immune suppression is linked to the removal of the interferon-gamma gradient and immune exhaustion via binding to LAG3 and the T-cell receptor. Further, recent data announced at the 2022 ASCO Annual Meeting suggest that galectin-3 can enhance PD-1 and PD-L1 binding and avert the interference of anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1 therapies by blocking the binding of the antibodies to their respective targets. GB1211 is designed to counter these effects. GB1211 demonstrated an anti-cancer effect and antifibrotic activity in multiple preclinical models and has successfully completed a Phase 1 trial in 78 healthy volunteers. In the Phase 1 trial, GB1211 was well-tolerated and exhibited dose-dependent pharmacokinetics. The mechanism of action is specific inhibition of the carbohydrate recognition domain of galectin-3.

お知らせ • Apr 27Galecto, Inc. Completes Enrollment in Global Phase 2B GALACTIC-1 Trial of GB0139 for the Treatment of IPFGalecto, Inc. announced it has completed enrollment of patients in its Phase 2b GALACTIC-1 trial of GB0139 for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). IPF is a life-threatening, rapidly progressing and irreversible disease causing scarring of the lungs and significantly impairing lung function. IPF affects approximately 100,000 people in the United States and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, imposing substantial challenges for healthcare systems worldwide. The current standard of care treatment options for IPF have only been shown to have a modest impact on slowing the progression of the disease and have been associated with significant side effects, leading to poor therapeutic adherence. GALACTIC-1 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter Phase 2b study being conducted across approximately 100 centers globally. The study is designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of Galecto’s most advanced compound, GB0139, in 141 patients with IPF. Patients in GALACTIC-1 are randomized (2:1) to either receive GB0139 or placebo. Patients in the GB0139 group receive a 3mg dose of GB0139 once daily for 52 weeks. The primary endpoint of the trial is to assess the annual rate of decline in forced vital capacity (FVC). Reduction in the decline of FVC was accepted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as primary endpoint for the approval of the current standard of care treatments for IPF: nintedanib, marketed as Ofev® by Boehringer Ingelheim, and pirfenidone, marketed as Esbriet® by Roche/Genentech.
お知らせ • Mar 30Galecto Completes Enrollment in Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 Trial of its Selective, Oral Galectin-3 Inhibitor GB1211 in Liver CirrhosisGalecto, Inc. announced it has completed enrollment in Parts 2 and 3 of its ongoing 3-part Phase 1b/2a trial of GB1211, GULLIVER-2, in liver cirrhosis. GB1211 is a selective, oral small molecule inhibitor of galectin-3 being studied in liver cirrhosis, a severe, progressive disease that ultimately leads to liver failure, and for which there are limited treatment options. GULLIVER-2 is an innovative hybrid trial, combining a hepatic impairment trial of safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (Parts 1 and 3) and a Phase 2 trial to examine safety and demonstrate effects of GB1211 on hepatic function, inflammation, coagulation and fibrosis (Part 2). This novel trial design is intended to provide a holistic view of the safety, pharmacokinetics, liver function and liver-related parameters of GB1211 in this vulnerable patient population with significant unmet needs. Part 1 of the GULLIVER-2 trial, which was designed to measure the pharmacokinetics of GB1211 in patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class B) as compared to healthy volunteers, was completed in December 2021. GB1211 was found to be well-tolerated with no drug-related serious adverse events. Part 2 of the trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cohort in 30 patients with liver cirrhosis and moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class B). This part of the trial is designed to observe the safety and tolerability of GB1211 over 12 weeks while also measuring fibrosis biomarkers, hepatic function, inflammation, and coagulation parameters, as well as detecting fibrosis using transient elastography ultrasound. Part 3 of the trial is an open-label cohort in 6 patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class C) and 6 matched healthy volunteers that is designed to examine the pharmacokinetics and safety and tolerability of GB1211. Galectin-3 plays a key role in fibrosis development through cellular activation and collagen production, and Galecto has demonstrated that inhibiting the galectin-3 target with GB1211 protects liver cells and reduces fibrosis in multiple animal models including models of liver fibrosis. Galectin-3 is elevated in cirrhosis patients and is a prognostic biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma, a known complication of liver cirrhosis. Liver cirrhosis is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and imposes a substantial health burden on many countries. It is estimated that more than 100 million patients suffer from liver cirrhosis worldwide. Currently, there are no approved disease-modifying therapies and liver transplantation remains the sole option for late-stage liver cirrhosis.

お知らせ • Jan 28Galecto Publishes Results Showing Safety and Efficacy of the Gb0139 Inhaled Galectin-3 Inhibitor in Hospitalized Covid-19 Patients on Standard of CareGalecto, Inc. announced the publication of the full results of an investigator-initiated open and randomized trial to evaluate Galecto’s inhaled galectin-3 inhibitor, GB0139, in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 infection who required oxygen but not mechanical ventilation, compared to patients only on standard of care. Galectin-3 plays a key role in COVID-19-related acute lung injury, cytokine storm, T-cell exhaustion and organ micro-thrombosis, and the results from this trial suggest that GB0139 has the potential for treatment of viral induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute lung injury (ALI). The study met its primary endpoint of safety as there were no observed treatment-related adverse events. Despite patients having a mean age of 65 years, mean BMI of 32, multiple comorbidities, and being breathless, all patients were able to effectively inhale GB0139 and achieve pharmacologically relevant plasma levels. Target engagement was confirmed with a statistically significant reduction (p<0.01) in serum galectin-3 levels. The study showed that GB0139 on top of standard of care may rapidly decrease markers of inflammation linked to the cytokine storm, inflammation-associated micro-thrombosis and those of short or long-term fibrosis. Patients treated with GB0139 had a significantly greater rate of decline in oxygen requirement versus standard of care alone and showed other signs of reduced organ damage. These effects were further accentuated in a subgroup of patients with moderate-to-severe disease who were at higher clinical risk. These patients showed multiple signs of improved immune-mediated viral responses as well as decreased lymphocyte exhaustion and decreased level of profibrotic macrophages. A 21% reduction of mortality was observed in this subgroup of patients at high clinical risk. The GALACTIC-1 trial is a Phase 2b, 52-week randomized, double-blind, multicenter, parallel, placebo-controlled trial investigating the safety and efficacy of GB0139 (3mg) in patients with IPF, with the rate of decline of forced vital capacity (FVC) as the primary endpoint. Based on blinded FVC (lung function) data from patients in this trial, the Company has determined that it may be possible to demonstrate a meaningful effect with fewer than the planned target of up to 210 randomized patients. As a result of this statistical analysis, the Company plans to seek regulatory approval of a protocol amendment to reduce the target patient population for the GALACTIC-1 trial, which would enable Galecto to maintain the cost structure of the trial and report topline results in mid-2023. In this open-label trial 41 patients were randomized to receive either standard of care, which included treatments such as steroids, heparin, remdesivir and tocilizumab (n=21), or inhaled GB0139 (dosed at 10 mg twice a day for 2 days and subsequently once a day for up to 14 days) plus standard of care (n=20), to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GB0139, pharmacokinetics, and its effects on clinical outcomes and biomarkers. Patients had a mean age of 65 years, mean BMI of 32, multiple comorbidities, and were hospitalized and needed oxygen therapy, but did not require mechanical ventilation.
お知らせ • Dec 21Galecto Provides Enrollment Update on Phase 2a MYLOX-1 Trial and Reiterates Expected Timing of Multiple Data Readouts in 2022Galecto, Inc. announced it has enrolled 10 of the anticipated 16 patients in its Phase 2a trial of its oral LOXL2 inhibitor GB2064 in myelofibrosis. The open label MYLOX-1 trial (NCT04679870) is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of orally administered GB2064 in 16 patients over 9 months. The trial will also assess the impact on fibrosis and quantification of the tissue targeting of GB2064, as well as other aspects of clinical response in myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis is a type of bone marrow cancer that causes scarring in the bone marrow and disrupts the body’s normal production of blood cells, which can lead to multiple negative impacts and a significantly reduced quality of life and mortality. LOXL2 is an enzyme that plays a key role in myelofibrosis and contributes to the fibrotic progression in this disease. Galecto’s LOXL2 inhibitor, GB2064, has demonstrated potent inhibition of LOXL2 activity in cell-based assays and preclinical models and has successfully completed Phase 1 studies in healthy volunteers.

お知らせ • Dec 14Galecto Announces Positive Preliminary Results for Oral Galectin-3 Inhibitor GB1211 in Part 1 of its Phase 1b/2a Liver Cirrhosis TrialGalecto, Inc. announced that it has successfully completed Part 1 of its Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 trial, assessing the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of the oral galectin-3 inhibitor GB1211 in patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class B) as compared to healthy volunteers. GB1211 was observed to be well-tolerated, there were no drug-related serious adverse events, and exposure was only moderately increased in the Child-Pugh class B patients. Accordingly, no dose adjustment is required for Part 2 of the trial in patients with moderate hepatic impairment. Galecto has also initiated Part 2 of the trial, which is a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial designed to assess the effect of 12-week dosing of GB1211 on a wide series of biological markers of hepatic function and structure in participants with moderate hepatic impairment. The Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 trial is the first in Galecto’s clinical program for GB1211 in liver cirrhosis. Liver cirrhosis represents a significant unmet medical need for which there is no currently approved disease modifying therapy. The GULLIVER-2 trial (NCT05009680) is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and potential activity of GB1211 in up to 54 participants, including liver cirrhosis patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classes B and C). In Part 2 of the trial, Child-Pugh class B liver cirrhosis patients of any etiology will be randomized to evaluate the impact of GB1211 on liver fibrosis and liver function. Galectin-3 plays a key role in fibrosis development through cellular activation and the production of collagen, and Galecto has demonstrated that inhibiting the galectin-3 target with GB1211 reduces fibrosis in multiple animal models including models of liver fibrosis. Galectin-3 is elevated in cirrhosis patients and is a prognostic biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma, a known complication of liver cirrhosis. It is estimated that more than 100 million patients suffer from liver cirrhosis worldwide and the mortality rate is high. There are no approved disease modifying therapies and liver transplantation remains the sole option for late stage liver cirrhosis. Galecto is developing GB1211, a proprietary orally available potent small molecule galectin-3 inhibitor. GB1211 has the potential to treat multiple types of cancer and fibrotic diseases. Galecto’s initial target indications for GB1211 are NSCLC, a cancer indication with a high unmet need, and liver cirrhosis, a severe, progressive disease that ultimately leads to liver failure. GB1211 demonstrated an anti-cancer effect and antifibrotic activity in multiple preclinical models and has successfully completed a Phase 1 trial in 78 healthy volunteers. In the Phase 1 trial, GB1211 was well-tolerated and had dose-dependent pharmacokinetics. Galectin-3 has been shown to play a central role in fibrotic diseases, including liver cirrhosis. Preclinical evidence suggests that galectin-3 is required for TGF-beta-mediated activation of myofibroblasts and subsequent matrix production in liver fibrosis. Inhibition of galectin-3 reduces YKL-40, a chitin-like glycoprotein biomarker of liver fibrosis, and reduces the development of fibrosis.

お知らせ • Sep 14Galecto Announces First Patient Treated in Phase 2 Trial of Oral Galectin-3 Inhibitor Gb1211 in Liver CirrhosisGalecto, Inc. announced that the first patient has been treated with the galectin-3 inhibitor GB1211 in the Phase 1b/2a GULLIVER-2 trial. This trial marks the initiation of Galecto’s clinical program for GB1211 in liver cirrhosis. Top line data from the full trial is expected in the second half of 2022. The GULLIVER-2 trial (NCT05009680) will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of GB1211 in up to 54 participants, including liver cirrhosis patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh classes B and C).

お知らせ • Aug 19Galecto, Inc. Announces First Patient Treated in Phase 2a Trial of the Oral LOXL2 Inhibitor Gb2064 in Myelofibrosis (The MYLOX-1 Trial)Galecto, Inc. announced the treatment of the first patient in a Phase 2a trial of its oral LOXL2 inhibitor GB2064 in myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis, a form of chronic leukemia, is a rare type of blood cancer in which the normal bone marrow is destroyed by fibrous scar tissue that does not produce blood cells. The open label MYLOX-1 trial is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of orally administered GB2064 in 16 patients over 9 months. The trial will also assess impact on fibrosis and quantification of the tissue targeting of GB2064, as well as other aspects of clinical response in myelofibrosis. The current standard of care for myelofibrosis is JAK inhibitors, but questions remain regarding side effects caused by the mechanism of action. LOXL-2 is an attractive target, as it is upregulated in myelofibrosis fibrotic tissue and plays a key role in fibrosis and disease progression in the tumor micro-environment. Focused inhibition of LOXL-2 is believed to be inherently safer than pan-inhibition of all LOX enzymes because some of the iso-enzymes potentially carry important liabilities. Galecto successfully completed the Phase 1 SAD/MAD study of GB2064 in healthy volunteers without observing any safety issues.
お知らせ • Jul 15Galecto Resumes Recruitment in Phase 2b Global GALACTIC-1 Trial of GB0139 for Idiopathic Pulmonary FibrosisGalecto, Inc. announced that it has resumed recruitment in its Phase 2b GALACTIC-1 trial of GB0139 for the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis under a revised protocol that was submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and other regulatory bodies, including those in Australia, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom. Following the recommendation from an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board in March 2021 to modify the GALACTIC-1 trial protocol, 38 patients continued treatment in this Phase 2b trial. Under the revised protocol, the company is now recruiting additional patients who are not taking nintedanib or pirfenidone at screening, who will be randomized 2:1 to receive either GB0139 3 mg or placebo. GALACTIC-1 is a 52-week randomized, double-blind, multicenter, parallel, placebo-controlled Phase 2b trial being conducted across more than 100 centers globally, investigating the safety and efficacy of company’s lead inhaled compound, GB0139, in up to 210 patients with IPF. The revised trial design retains the same statistical powering to assess the primary endpoint of forced vital capacity decline over 52 weeks. The company anticipates that topline data from the GALACTIC-1 trial will be available by mid-2023.

お知らせ • Jun 23Galecto, Inc. Announces Preliminary Topline Results from Galectin-3 Inhibitor GB0139Galecto, Inc. announced preliminary topline results from an investigator-initiated trial examining Galecto’s inhaled galectin-3 inhibitor (GB0139). This trial included 41 hospitalized patients with COVID-19 infection who did not require mechanical ventilation, of which 20 were randomized to the GB0139 arm. GB0139, dosed at 10 mg twice a day for 2 days and subsequently once a day for up to 14 days, showed a favorable safety profile with no treatment-related serious adverse events reported. GB0139 had a positive trend on acute lung injury related to COVID-19, as patients who received GB0139 showed signs of improved lung function with a significant decline in oxygen flow requirements compared to patients only receiving standard of care (SOC), which included dexamethasone, remdesivir and anticoagulant therapy. GB0139 showed target engagement by reducing galectin-3 levels compared to SOC (p < 0.01). Patients with COVID-19 were able to inhale GB0139 and achieve consistent exposure of GB0139 at levels previously associated with systemic biomarker responses in IPF patients (including YKL-40 and PAI-1). Patients showed improved inflammation and coagulation biomarkers, including CXCL10, thrombocytes and reduced D-dimers, as well as improved biomarkers of liver function and tissue damage. While the severity of the disease at baseline was worse in patients receiving GB0139, these patients had similar outcomes to patients receiving only SOC.

お知らせ • Mar 16Galecto, Inc. Announces Outcome of Data Safety Monitoring Board Interim Review of Phase 2b GALACTIC-1 Study of GB0139 for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: DSMB Recommends Study to Continue with ModificationsGalecto, Inc. announced that an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) has completed its interim review of the company’s Phase 2b GALACTIC-1 study of GB0139 for the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). On March 12, the DSMB recommended that, based upon a safety analysis of the data, the company discontinue dosing and enrolling patients in the 10 mg arm along with patients in the 3 mg arm who are receiving combination treatment with the currently approved treatments of IPF, nintedanib and pirfenidone. GALACTIC-1 is a 52-week randomized, double-blind, multicenter, parallel, placebo-controlled Phase 2b study being conducted across more than 100 centers globally, investigating the safety and efficacy of Galecto’s lead compound, GB0139, in patients with IPF. Initial unblinded data readout is anticipated in 2022. The DSMB informed the company, based on unblinded safety and efficacy data, that there was an imbalance in the serious adverse experiences across the study groups, but not an imbalance between the groups in mortality. Galecto expects to continue recruiting patients who are not taking nintedanib or pirfenidone at screening and who would be randomized to receive GB0139 3 mg or placebo. The DSMB recommended the patients randomized to the 10mg group and all those taking nintedanib or pirfenidone should be discontinued from the study. Based on these recommendations, the Company plans to work with both the study investigators and the appropriate regulatory authorities to implement these changes promptly.
