Section 8 – Other Events

Item 8.01

Other Events

GlobeImmune, Inc. (the “Company”) provided an update today on the previously announced process for exploring strategic options for the Company. Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. has been retained by the Company to assist in reviewing ways to maximize stockholder value. While the Company continues to seek potential strategic transactions, after a thorough process, the Company has not identified a potential transaction to date. The Company does not have a defined timeline for the strategic review process and the review may not result in any specific action or transaction.

Patients are being enrolled in three clinical trials being conducted by the Company’s corporate collaborators, Gilead Sciences, Inc. and Celgene Corporation in collaboration with the Company. The 48-week results from a Phase 2 clinical trial investigating GS-4774 in patients with chronic HBV infection, who are currently not receiving treatment, are projected to be available in the second half of 2016. The results from a GI-6207 Phase 2 trial in subjects with medullary thyroid cancer are projected to be available in the second half of 2016. In April 2015, the Company, Celgene and the National Cancer Institute opened for enrollment a Phase 2 clinical trial designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of evaluating GI-6301 in combination with radiation therapy in patients with chordoma.

Any updates to these estimates will be included in the Company’s future reports on Form 10-K, 10-Q or 8-K.
