Atossa Therapeutics (NASDAQ: ATOS) amended its Phase 2 EVANGELINE study of (Z)-endoxifen in premenopausal ER+/HER2– early breast cancer to a single-arm, open-label, non-registrational design. The amendment reduces planned enrollment from 214 to 40–65 patients, implements a Cohort A two-stage futility rule using Week-4 Ki-67 ≤10% for earlier go/no-go decisions, and retains unchanged patient-safety data collection and DSMC oversight. Run-in data showed a Week-4 Ki-67 ≤10% rate of 86%. The company says the change aims to cut future study costs, accelerate objective readouts, and prioritize NDA-enabling activities in 2026.
