Gossamer Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: GOSS), a late-stage, clinical biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of seralutinib for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD), today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, and announced the closure of new patient screening for the ongoing registrational Phase 3 PROSERA Study in PAH patients.

Gossamer Bio and the Chiesi Group are jointly developing seralutinib under a global collaboration agreement.

"I am incredibly proud to announce that, following the recent closing of new patient screening, we are just weeks away from fully enrolling the PROSERA Phase 3 Study in PAH," said Faheem Hasnain, Chairman, Co-Founder, and CEO of Gossamer Bio.

"This achievement is the result of our team's unwavering dedication, tireless effort, and steadfast commitment to our mission. We expect to publicly announce topline data from this pivotal study in February of 2026. Enrolling the appropriate patients for this study was of paramount importance, and the baseline characteristics of those who have been randomized to date demonstrate that our diligence and focus on study quality has paid off. This reinforces our optimism for meaningful results and brings us one step closer to the potential of having a new, first-in-class therapy for patients with PAH.”

Chief Medical Officer Dr. Richard Aranda added, "We are also delighted to unveil the clinical trial design for the Phase 3 SERANATA Study in PH-ILD, a landmark moment in our pursuit to address unmet patient need. A product of close collaboration and alignment with global regulatory authorities, including the FDA and EMA, this study represents a groundbreaking effort to offer new hope to patients with PH-ILD."

Seralutinib (GB002): Inhaled PDGFR, CSF1R and c-KIT Inhibitor

  • On May 14th, we closed new patient screening for the ongoing PROSERA Study in Functional Class II and III PAH patients. To date, 343 patients have been enrolled or are scheduled to randomize into the PROSERA Study. With the additional patients currently in screening, we expect to complete enrollment with over 350 PAH patients in early June.
    • The Phase 3 PROSERA Study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, global registrational clinical trial evaluating seralutinib in PAH patients, on top of background PAH therapy. Patients are assigned 1:1 to either the seralutinib or placebo arms. Patients receive blinded treatment for up to 48 weeks.
    • The primary endpoint of the PROSERA Study is change in six-minute walk distance (6MWD) from baseline as compared to placebo at week 24. Included in the key secondary endpoints is time to clinical worsening, as compared to placebo, up to week 48. In addition to other secondary and exploratory endpoints, safety and tolerability will be evaluated.
    • The patient population enrolled in PROSERA aligns with the target demographic, as evidenced by available baseline characteristics. The PROSERA Study utilizes enrichment criteria, including the REVEAL Lite 2 Risk Score and other criteria, to identify patients more likely to show a greater magnitude of effect on 6MWD at week 24, as informed by the Phase 2 TORREY study.

*Characteristics shown are for the first 324 patients enrolled in the PROSERA Study, and all PROSERA Study percentages are out of 324. Given the patients scheduled to randomize and those still in screening, we expect to complete full enrollment in early June. Final baseline characteristics for the PROSERA Study are subject to change.

  • We expect to announce topline results from the ongoing Phase 3 PROSERA Study in February 2026.
  • We expect to activate clinical sites for the global, registrational Phase 3 SERANATA Study in PH-ILD patients in the fourth quarter of 2025.
    • Achieved alignment on study design and endpoints with global regulatory authorities, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA).
    • The planned SERANATA Study will be a 24-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, global clinical trial in PH-ILD patients. Approximately 480 patients will be randomized 1:1:1 to receive either 90mg seralutinib twice-daily, 120mg seralutinib twice-daily or placebo.
    • The primary endpoint of the SERANATA Study is change in 6MWD from baseline as compared to placebo at week 24. Key secondary endpoints will include time to clinical worsening and change from baseline in forced vital capacity (FVC).
  • One poster related to seralutinib will be presented at the American Thoracic Society (ATS) 2025 International Conference, taking place from May 16th through 21st, in San Francisco, California.
