First Patient Dosed in Investigator-Initiated Ph 2 Trial of GB1211 + Pembrolizumab

“We are excited that the Providence Cancer Institute and Drs. William Redmond and Brendan Curti have initiated this trial. Dr. Redmond is a world-leading expert on the role of galectin-3 in cancer and ICI resistance and has demonstrated how galectin inhibition can be used to enhance tumor treatment,” stated Dr. Hans Schambye, CEO of Galecto. “Following the encouraging topline results from the GALLANT-1 trial that we reported in the fourth quarter of 2023, we look forward to exploring potential synergies with another leading ICI, pembrolizumab. This new trial marks a significant stride towards exploring GB1211’s potential to enhance the effectiveness of ICI in various cancer indications.”
