Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) provided a clinical update for its diabetes gene therapy program for GPX-002 on January 7, 2026, reporting preclinical progress and regulatory planning.
Key developments: preclinical proof-of-concept in Type 2 diabetes mouse and non-human primate models showing beta cell rejuvenation and normalized glucose; prior T1D models showed restored normal glucose and improved c-peptide/insulin metrics; manufacturing process transferred to CDMO partners; and a FDA meeting request submitted by end of 2025, with the meeting scheduled in Q1 2026 to discuss IND-enabling studies and next steps toward toxicology studies and cGMP clinical scale production.
Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) announced preliminary preclinical in vivo proof-of-concept data for GPX-002, a diabetes gene therapy, from Type 2 diabetic non-human primate (NHP) and mouse studies dated Jan 6, 2026. Key findings: one NHP treated via pancreatic duct infusion achieved normal glucose tolerance at seven months; a second NHP treated by direct pancreatic injection improved glucose tolerance at three months but did not normalize; T2D mice showed statistically significant glucose tolerance improvement at four weeks and restoration of normal glucose levels. Studies used an AAV vector carrying Pdx1 and MafA with an insulin promoter. Ongoing work includes toxicology and IND planning.
Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) reported publication of Acclaim-1 Phase 1 data in Clinical Lung Cancer on Nov 24, 2025, evaluating REQORSA (quaratusugene ozeplasmid) with osimertinib in advanced EGFR-mutant NSCLC after progression on prior osimertinib.
The Phase 1 dose-escalation (12 patients) found no dose-limiting toxicities, set a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of 0.12 mg/kg, and reported early signs of efficacy including one investigator-assessed partial remission continuing >32 months and two patients with prolonged progression-free survival.
Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) announced on November 19, 2025 that it added Gabrail Cancer Center in Canton, Ohio as a new clinical trial site for its Acclaim-1 and Acclaim-3 studies of Reqorsa gene therapy (quaratusugene ozeplasmid) in lung cancer.
The company noted the Acclaim trials are supported by FDA Fast Track designation and said it expects to add additional sites over the coming months to expand patient access and expedite enrollment.
Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) announced the USPTO granted a U.S. patent covering use of its lead candidate Reqorsa gene therapy in combination with PD-L1 antibodies (example: Tecentriq) for cancer treatment, with protection through 2037. The patent is said to apply to Genprex's Acclaim-3 clinical trial in small cell lung cancer and is already granted in the U.S. and Korea. Genprex is pursuing additional patent applications in Europe, Canada, Brazil, China, and Israel, which the company says would extend protection to those trials if granted.
Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) announced that the European Patent Office has communicated its intent to grant a patent for the use of Reqorsa gene therapy (quaratusugene ozeplasmid) in combination with PD-1 antibodies to treat cancer (Nov 4, 2025).
This expands Genprex's patent estate that already includes granted patents for the same combination in the U.S., Japan, Mexico, Russia, Australia, Chile, China, and Singapore. Reqorsa is being developed alongside approved cancer drugs for lung cancer, with preclinical data showing complementarity with targeted drugs and immunotherapies.
The release cites EU and global lung cancer burden: ~250,000 EU deaths in 2021, 11.9% of new cancer diagnoses in EU-27 (2020), and GLOBOCAN 2022 estimates of ~2.48M new global cases and ~1.8M deaths.
Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) announced a registered direct offering of 377,780 shares at $9.00 per share for gross proceeds of about $3.4 million, priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules.

Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) announced collaborators presented positive preclinical data for Reqorsa® (quaratusugene ozeplasmid) at the 2025 AACR-NCI-EORTC conference (Oct 22–26, 2025).
University of Michigan data showed REQORSA upregulated TUSC2 in EML4-ALK+ NSCLC cell lines and patient-derived organoids, induced apoptosis including in alectinib-resistant cells, and that combining REQORSA with the ALK inhibitor alectinib increased apoptosis and improved survival in a human ALK+-EML4 mouse xenograft model.
The poster was presented Oct 25, 2025 and is available on the company website.
Genprex (NASDAQ:GNPX) announced a registered direct offering of 243,622 common shares at $11.21 per share for expected gross proceeds of approximately $2.7 million, priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules.
In a concurrent private placement the company will issue unregistered short-term warrants to purchase up to 487,244 shares at an $11.00 exercise price, exercisable upon issuance and expiring 24 months after effectiveness of a resale registration statement; full exercise would generate up to $5.4 million additional gross proceeds. H.C. Wainwright & Co. is the exclusive placement agent. Proceeds are intended for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) collaborators will present positive preclinical data for Reqorsa® (quaratusugene ozeplasmid) at the 2025 AACR‑NCI‑EROTC conference in Boston on October 25, 2025. Studies show QO upregulates TUSC2 and induces apoptosis in ALK‑EML4 positive NSCLC models.
Key findings: QO alone and combined with alectinib reduced tumor volume by 79% in an NCI‑H2228 mouse model versus 60% for alectinib alone; QO increased caspase 3/7 activity, pro‑apoptotic markers, DNA fragmentation, and reduced colony formation. Results support a potential clinical trial pathway for REQORSA in ALK+ NSCLC.
