Post# of 231
Clinical-stage gene therapy company Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) this morning announced it has initiated the first phase of branding its lead drug candidate, Oncoprex(TM) immunogene therapy, and has completed and submitted non-proprietary drug name selections to the American Medical Association’s United States Adopted Names (“USAN”) Council. According to the update, Genprex will, upon receipt of USAN feedback expected later this year, submit its non-proprietary drug name selections to the World Health Organization for International Nonproprietary Names (“INN”) status. By mid-2020, the company expects to obtain an approved non-proprietary drug name. “Developing and obtaining regulatory approval of a non-proprietary drug name is a requirement for bringing our lead drug candidate to market,” Genprex Chairman and CEO Rodney Varner said in the news release. “We’re one step closer to achieving this regulatory milestone. An approved non-proprietary drug name will also make our lead drug candidate more widely recognizable to clinicians and physicians and most importantly, to patients living with non-small cell lung cancer.”
