About Genprex, Inc.
Genprex, Inc. is a clinical-stage gene therapy company focused
on developing life-changing therapies for patients with cancer and
diabetes. Genprex’s technologies are designed to administer
disease-fighting genes to provide new therapies for large patient
populations with cancer and diabetes who currently have limited
treatment options. Genprex works with world-class institutions and
collaborators to develop drug candidates to further its pipeline of
gene therapies in order to provide novel treatment approaches. The
Company’s lead product candidate, REQORSA™ (quaratusugene
ozeplasmid), is being evaluated as a treatment for non-small cell
lung cancer (NSCLC). REQORSA has a multimodal mechanism of action
that has been shown to interrupt cell signaling pathways that cause
replication and proliferation of cancer cells; re-establish
pathways for apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cancer cells;
and modulate the immune response against cancer cells. REQORSA has
also been shown to block mechanisms that create drug resistance. In
January 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted Fast
Track Designation for REQORSA for NSCLC in combination therapy with
osimertinib (AstraZeneca’s Tagrisso®) for patients with EFGR
mutations whose tumors progressed after treatment with osimertinib
alone. For more information, please visit the Company’s web site at
