About Breast Cancer and HER2/neu Positivity
One in eight U.S. women will develop invasive breast cancer over
her lifetime, with approximately 282,000 new breast cancer patients
and 3.8 million breast cancer survivors in 2021. HER2/neu (human
epidermal growth factor receptor 2) protein is a cell surface
receptor protein that is expressed in a variety of common cancers,
including in 75% of breast cancers at low (1+), intermediate (2+),
and high (3+ or over-expressor) levels.
About Greenwich LifeSciences, Inc.
Greenwich LifeSciences is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical
company focused on the development of GP2, an immunotherapy to
prevent breast cancer recurrences in patients who have previously
undergone surgery. GP2 is a 9 amino acid transmembrane peptide of
the HER2/neu protein. In a randomized, single-blinded,
placebo-controlled, multi-center (16 sites led by MD Anderson
Cancer Center) Phase IIb clinical trial, no recurrences were
observed in the HER2/neu 3+ adjuvant setting after median 5 years
of follow-up, if the patient received the 6 primary intradermal
injections over the first 6 months (p = 0.0338). Of the 138
patients that have been treated with GP2 to date over 4 clinical
trials, GP2 treatment was well tolerated and no serious adverse
events were observed related to GP2 immunotherapy. Greenwich
LifeSciences is planning to commence a Phase III clinical trial
using a similar treatment regime as the Phase IIb clinical trial.

About GP2 Immunotherapy Immune Response
As previously reported, GP2 immunotherapy generated GP2-specific
immune responses, leading to no metastatic breast cancer recurrence
in the HER2/neu 3+ population in the Phase IIb clinical trial, thus
supporting GP2’s mechanism of action. Statistically significant
peak immunity was reached after 6 months of GP2 treatment, as
measured in both the Dimer Binding Assay and the DTH skin test.
HER2/neu 3+ population immune response was similar to the HER2/neu
1-2+ population immune response, suggesting the potential to treat
the HER2/neu 1-2+ population (including triple negative breast
cancer) with GP2 immunotherapy in combination with trastuzumab
(Herceptin) based products and other clinically active agents. The
broad based immune response suggests the potential for GP2 to treat
other HER2/neu 1-3+ expressing cancers. For more information on GP2
immune response and clinical data, please visit the Company’s
