Post# of 231
Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) is a clinical-stage gene therapy company focused on developing life-changing treatments for patients with cancer and diabetes. The company today announced that its research collaborators have published positive preclinical data for the NPRL2 tumor suppressor gene, utilizing Genprex’s non-viral Oncoprex(R) Delivery System, in KRAS/STK11 mutant anti-PD1 resistant non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) in a humanized mouse model. “These positive preclinical data are very encouraging and support NPRL2 gene therapy as a potential treatment for a sub-group of NSCLC in which patients traditionally are resistant to existing therapies,” said Rodney Varner, president, chairman and CEO at Genprex. “We believe this data could support the potential for a new drug candidate in our pipeline, and it also provides further evidence that the Oncoprex(R) Delivery System has the ability to be successful using genes other than the TUSC2 gene we are already using in clinical trials with Reqorsa(R).”
