Key Offerings

• Galinpepimut-S (GPS): GPS is a cancer immunotherapeutic targeting the Wilms' tumor protein 1 (WT1) antigen, which is overexpressed in a variety of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors. GPS is currently in late-stage clinical development for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and multiple myeloma (MM). No significant market share yet as it is in clinical trials. Competitors include companies developing other immunotherapies for AML and MM, such as those focused on CAR-T cell therapy, checkpoint inhibitors, and bispecific antibodies.

Industry Overview

The oncology immunotherapy market is rapidly growing, driven by advances in understanding the immune system's role in fighting cancer. There is high demand for effective and personalized treatments.

Positioning

Sellas focuses on WT1-targeted immunotherapy. This allows for a more targeted approach compared to broader immunotherapies. The success of its lead product, GPS, will determine its position.

Total Addressable Market (TAM)

The TAM for cancer immunotherapies is very large and growing. Estimated to be over $100 billion by 2025. Sellas is positioned to capture a portion of this market if GPS receives regulatory approval and demonstrates clinical efficacy. The value of the market that Sellas can capture depends on the specific indications and the competition. It is difficult to forecast without knowing if it is going to be approved

Key Competitors
