About Genprex Inc.

Genprex 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. Genprex’s oncology program utilizes its proprietary, non-viral ONCOPREX(R) Nanoparticle Delivery System, which encapsulates the gene-expressing plasmids using lipid nanoparticles. The resultant product is administered intravenously, where it is taken up by tumor cells that then express tumor suppressor proteins that were deficient in the tumor. The company’s lead product candidate, REQORSA(R) (quaratusugene ozeplasmid), is being evaluated in three clinical trials as a treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) and small cell lung cancer (“SCLC”). Each of Genprex’s three lung cancer clinical programs have received a Fast Track Designation from the Food and Drug Administration. Genprex’s diabetes gene therapy approach is comprised of a novel infusion process that uses an adeno-associated virus (“AAV”) vector to deliver Pdx1 and MafA genes directly to the pancreas. In models of type 1 diabetes, GPX-002 transforms alpha cells in the pancreas into functional beta-like cells, which can produce insulin but are distinct enough from beta cells to evade the body’s immune system. In a similar approach, GPX-003 for type 2 diabetes, where autoimmunity is not at play, is believed to rejuvenate and replenish exhausted beta cells.

July 18, 2023 12:41:01

Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX), a clinical-stage gene therapy company focused on developing life-changing therapies for patients with cancer and diabetes, has signed an exclusive license agreement with the University of Pittsburgh. The agreement grants Genprex worldwide, exclusive rights to a patent application and related technology for a gene therapy targeting both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The therapy utilizes Pdx1 (“Pdx1”) and MafA (“MafA”) genes controlled by an MafB (“MafB”) promoter and administered through an adeno-associated virus (“AAV”) vector directly into the pancreatic duct. Preclinical data from nonhuman primate models of type 1 diabetes show promising results, with significant decreases in insulin requirements, increased c-peptide levels and improved glucose tolerance. The addition of this technology strengthens Genprex’s diabetes gene therapy program, and the company aims to optimize the product candidates through further preclinical studies. “We are continuing to build a fortress of protection and a powerful intellectual property portfolio for our diabetes gene therapy program,” said Genprex president and CEO Rodney Varner in the press release. “The addition of this license to MafB promoter technology expands and strengthens the potential for this novel, gene therapy to treat type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

BioMedNewsBreaks – FSD Pharma Inc. (NASDAQ: HUGE) (CSE: HUGE) (FRA: 0K9A) Reports Arbitration Panel Finding in Syneos Health (NASDAQ: SYNH) Proceeding

July 18, 2023 12:07:04

FSD Pharma (NASDAQ: HUGE) (CSE: HUGE) (FRA: 0K9A), a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to building a portfolio of innovative assets and biotech solutions for the treatment of challenging neurodegenerative, inflammatory and metabolic disorders, is reporting that an arbitration panel has found that Syneos Health (NASDAQ: SYNH) failed to use commercially reasonable efforts in conducting its trial for FSD 201. According to the announcement, Syneos Health filed an arbitration proceeding against FSD Pharma in 2022. Syneos claimed that FSD Pharma owed Syneos Health $3,915,388.69 in damages as well as interest on that amount in relation to a failed phase 2 FDA trial for FSD 201; the claim also asked FSD to pay related legal expenses. The phase 2 trial was set up to enroll 350 patients in North America, and was eventually expanded to include 35 total sites in North America and several South American countries. Despite that, the announcement noted that Syneos Health’s track record of enrollment during the trial was “abysmal,” with fewer than 50 patients ultimately enrolled before the trial was terminated.

According to the announcement, FSD disputed that it owed anything to Syneos Health, countersuing the company and “making clear that it was not going to be bullied by a large CRO.” The case went to a three-arbitrator panel, which found “among other things, that Syneos Health breached its contractual obligations because ‘given Syneos Health’s poor success at patient enrollment despite its self-described “extraordinary” efforts, it was not commercially reasonable for it to continue to throw good money after bad in circumstances where the money in question was FSD’s,” the announcement stated. “The Panel awarded Syneos Health US$1,707,830.52 in damages plus interest for certain unpaid invoices essentially because FSD’s former management did not timely object and dispute those invoices in strict adherence with the boilerplate dispute resolution provisions in Syneos Health’s form agreement. The damage award is nevertheless less than 50% of what Syneos Health had demanded, as well as substantially less than what Syneos Health had offered to accept in settlement. The Panel also denied Syneos Health’s request for the payment of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. The award shows how small and midsize pharma and biotech companies can fight back against CROs [that] take them for granted and seek to impose huge costs on them while failing to perform their end of the bargain.”

Harvard Scientists Create AI Tool to Provide Real-Time Genetic Analysis of Brain Cancer During Surgery

July 14, 2023

July 14, 2023 10:38:41

Scientists from Harvard University have created an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that would enable physicians to do real-time genetic analysis of brain tumors during surgery. Brain tumors often have poor treatment outcomes because their proximity to the brain makes treating them effectively more difficult compared to tumors in other locations.

Furthermore, limited information on a tumor’s genetics can make it harder for physicians to make treatment choices such as…

BiondVax Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (NASDAQ: BVXV) Sees Hot Market Potential for NanoAb Pipeline

July 12, 2023

July 12, 2023 08:50:00

The global dermatology pharmaceutics market is booming, with increased public awareness and large unmet needs
BiondVax competitor MoonLake Immunotherapeutics share price jumped 128% after positive findings from a Phase 2 trial evaluating Nanobody(R) sonelokimab in patients with moderate-to-severe hidradenitis suppurativa, a painful long-term dermatological condition
BiondVax’s NanoAbs address psoriasis and a broad range of other diseases, and with a potentially better safety profile based on administration directly into lesions, rather than MoonLake’s systemic-administration

The global dermatology pharmaceutics market was valued just over $20 billion in 2022 and is expected to surge to nearly $40 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.91% during the forecast period (https://ibn.fm/A974K). Dermatology uses pharmaceuticals to control and treat numerous conditions that affect the skin, hair, nails, and more.

BiondVax Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: BVXV), an innovative biotechnology company focused on developing, manufacturing, and commercializing potential blockbuster immunotherapeutic products primarily for the treatment of infectious and autoimmune diseases, is developing a pipeline of…

BioMedNewsBreaks – INmune Bio Inc. (NASDAQ: INMB) Announces New Findings to Be Presented at Annual AAIC

July 11, 2023 13:13:46

INmune Bio (NASDAQ: INMB), a clinical-stage immunology company focused on developing treatments that harness the patient’s innate immune system to fight disease, today announced new findings from data to be presented at the annual Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (“AAIC”). Slated to take place in Amsterdam, Netherlands, AAIC is the largest medical meeting focused on Alzheimer’s disease (“AD”). “One of the difficulties in developing drugs for AD is the inability to quantify the disease and measure changes at the tissue or microstructure level. The current approaches to measure brain changes utilize imaging techniques that measure the whole brain,” said RJ Tesi, M.D., INmune Bio’s chief executive officer. “To observe whole brain changes in AD often takes a year or longer. Because whole brain changes are a sum of microstructural changes, we can more quickly assess the potential of a therapy through microstructural measurements such as Cortical Disarray Measurement (‘CDM(R)’).”

BioMedNewsBreaks – BiondVax Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (NASDAQ: BVXV) Featured in Bell2Bell Podcast

July 11, 2023 12:16:58

BiondVax (NASDAQ: BVXV), a biotechnology company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing innovative immunotherapeutic products primarily for the treatment of infectious and autoimmune diseases, was featured in the latest episode of the Bell2Bell Podcast. The podcast is part of IBN’s sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels. BiondVax CEO Amir Reichman joined the program to discuss the company’s recent achievements. “At the end of 2022, we did a round of financing and raised about $8 million. We also started the negotiations to in-license the next antibody from the Max Planck Institute – namely the antibody for targeting interleukin-17 (‘IL-17’) for the treatment of psoriasis. We have now in-licensed the IL-17 nanobody. This is a highly promising drug,” Reichman said. “If we look at the market, psoriatic patients today have several options for treatment.

For example, plaque psoriasis patients have creams and other topical drugs, biologics and oral drugs… The topicals are not highly sophisticated drugs to say the least, and they come with a considerable profile of side effects. When a person needs to take steroids once in a while for an infection, they can tolerate it, but when you need to take steroids for an autoimmune disease with chronic inflammation, you create tolerance and deal with potential side effects… The biologics are highly potent, but they are restricted to moderate and severe cases of psoriasis; this accounts for only 15% of patients with psoriasis. The 85% that are left have to choose between drugs based on 1960s and 1970s technology. There hasn’t been much breakthrough in recent years to serve these patients… The total [annual] sales of anti-interleukin-17 monoclonal antibodies are about $7.5 billion. If you take all of the other psoriasis biologics, the market is about $10 billion per year, targeting only severe cases. What we want to do is generate an axis for a highly potent, highly specific drug that’s safe to use for mild-to-moderate psoriasis cases. This is where our nanobodies are the best fit… We can inject it in an affordable way directly to the lesion… to provide relief and alleviate inflammation. Then, the next treatment will come only with the next flareup, six months or a year later.”

Although cancer treatments have come quite a long way in terms of improving health outcomes and post-diagnosis expectancy rates, treatment is rarely ever pleasant. Most cancer patients who undergo treatments such as chemotherapy will experience side effects including hair loss, anemia, infections, nausea, loss of appetite, fatigue, bruising and bleeding. In many cases, these symptoms can be so severe that patients have to take additional steps to alleviate the side effects of chemotherapy.

The podcast is part of IBN’s sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels. Rodney Varner, GNPX’s chairman, president and CEO, and Ryan Confer, the company’s CFO, joined the program to discuss the journeys that led them to Genprex and the promise of the company’s drug development pipeline. “As I learned more and more about the technology, it became a passion of mine, as well,” said Confer. “What we’re trying to do in cancer – using a lipid-based delivery vehicle and working with tumor suppressor genes that are naturally occurring in the body – represents a treatment paradigm that is unique and different than other options in the space, particularly chemotherapy that has such negative side effects. It is something that we believe really has the potential to change people’s lives as they’re going through such a terrible prognosis. I was excited then, and here we are 12 years later, being able to see it coming through clinical trials, seeing how safe the program has been and seeing the impact that we’re having.”

BioMedNewsBreaks — Ocean Biomedical Inc. (NASDAQ: OCEA) Share Price Target Increased in FRC Report, Receives US Patent for Cancer Immunotherapy Treatment

June 28, 2023 11:25:30

Ocean Biomedical (NASDAQ: OCEA), a next-generation biopharma company working to accelerate the development and commercialization of compelling new biopharma discoveries, has been spotlighted in a recent Fundamental Research Corp. (“FRC”) report. The equity analyst report increased FRC’s price target of OCEA stock to $17.63 per share, up from its March 2023 of $16.40. According to the report, the uptick was based on several things, including Ocean Biomedical’s $25 million financing facility announced last month; the company being granted two new U.S. patents and one Brazilian patent for drug and vaccine candidates targeting malaria and cancer treatment; positive results from an independent study demonstrating that OCEA “antibodies can suppress glioblastoma (brain) tumor growth by 60%”; and the company’s plans to move forward with the manufacturing and IND-enabling studies needed to submit applications to the FDA to initiate human clinical trials and its diversified development pipeline. The FRC report also noted that the company has received 25 patents and has an additional 38 patent applications currently pending. “We are pleased to see our cumulative efforts and growing strengths recognized by Fundamental Research Corp.’s analyst coverage, especially the diverse potential of our core cancer, fibrosis, and infectious disease programs,” said Ocean Biomedical cofounder and executive chair Dr. Chirinjeev Kathuria in the press release.

In addition, the company recently announced that a broad U.S. patent has been issued to Dr. Jack A. Elias, MD, one of the OCEA’s scientific cofounders. The patent covers bispecific antibodies targeting chitinase 3-like-1 (“CHi3L1”) and programmed cell death protein 1 (“PD-1”), “a promising new approach that has emerged from prior breakthrough discoveries that CHi3L1 is a ‘master regulator’ of tumor growth in multiple visceral cancers.” According to the announcement, these bispecific antibodies have been shown to synergistically kill tumor cells at levels dramatically exceeding the effectiveness of either the anti-CHi3L1 antibody or the anti-PD-1 antibody alone in multiple cancer types and multiple animal models. The patent has been granted for a range of cancers, including prostate, colon, rectal, ovarian, kidney, breast, glioblastoma, melanoma and lung.

BioMedNewsBreaks — Ocean Biomedical Inc. (NASDAQ: OCEA) Cofounder Issued Key US Patent for Bispecific Cancer Immunotherapy Treatment

June 27, 2023

June 27, 2023 13:51:54

Ocean Biomedical (NASDAQ: OCEA) is reporting that a broad U.S. patent has been issued to Dr. Jack A. Elias, MD, one of the company’s scientific cofounders. The patent is for bispecific antibodies targeting chitinase 3-like-1 (“CHi3L1”) and programmed cell death protein 1 (“PD-1”). The company called it “a promising new approach that has emerged from prior breakthrough discoveries that CHi3L1 is a ‘master regulator’ of tumor growth in multiple visceral cancers.” According to the announcement, the bispecific antibody is a cutting-edge immunotherapy approach that demonstrates significant potential by combining Ocean’s proprietary anti-CHi3L1 antibody with existing immune checkpoint inhibitors that target PD-1 in a bispecific-antibody format. The company reports that these bispecific antibodies “have been shown to synergistically kill tumor cells at levels dramatically exceeding the effectiveness of either the anti-CHi3L1 antibody or the anti-PD-1 antibody alone — in multiple cancer types and multiple animal models.”

According to the company, the patent has been granted for a range of cancers, including prostate, colon, rectal, ovarian, kidney, breast, glioblastoma, melanoma and lung. “This bispecific antibody pathway discovery is a monumental leap forward,” said Ocean Biomedical scientific cofounder Dr. Jack A. Elias, MD, in the press release. “By controlling CHi3L1 and concurrently targeting PD-1, you don’t just control one anti-cancer pathway, you simultaneously control many anti-cancer pathways. We believe our discoveries will advance cancer research, and eventually treatment and patient outcomes, forward.”

BioMedNewsBreaks – MoonLake Immunotherapeutics’ (NASDAQ: MLTX) Shares See Significant Increase Based on Success of IL-17 Nanobody Phase 2 Trial

June 26, 2023

June 26, 2023 14:44:56

MoonLake (NASDAQ: MLTX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on creating next-level therapies for inflammatory diseases, has announced positive top-line results from its global phase 2 MIRA trial. The trial (“M1095-HS-201”) evaluated the efficacy and safety of the Nanobody(R) Sonelokimab in patients with moderate-to-severe hidradenitis suppurativa (“HS”). MoonLake’s shares closed nearly $20.00 up on the day to $45.95 following the recent news. “As part of our efforts to elevate outcomes for patients, we set an ambitious goal for our Nanobody(R) Sonelokimab to ‘meet or beat’ the best results shown in pivotal-like trials of competitors,” said Jorge Santos da Silva, PhD, founder and CEO of MoonLake. “We have achieved our ‘beat’ goal with the positive outcome of the phase 2 MIRA trial. In doing so, we have raised the bar for what can be accomplished for HS and these positive topline data provide us with even greater confidence as we look forward to our next steps and our aspiration to become a leader in the inflammation and immunology space.”

MoonLake is not the only company pursuing anti-IL-17 nanobody therapies. BiondVax Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (NASDAQ: BVXV) is a biotechnology company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing innovative immunotherapeutic products primarily for the treatment of infectious and autoimmune diseases. BVXV is positioning in a market hungry for nanobodies that target IL-17, demonstrated by the success of MoonLake, which, at a market value currently hundreds of times higher than BVXV, speaks to BiondVax’s massive upside potential. In comparison to MoonLake’s nanobody, BiondVax’s candidate does not require conjugation of two antibodies with a linker nor does it require attachment to albumin, so it is, therefore, easier and cheaper to produce. BiondVax’s nanobody is planned to be injected directly into the psoriatic lesions (not systemic) and is therefore expected to have a better safety profile and is intended for use in mild to moderate patients, a significantly greater population of patients compared to MoonLake’s case targeting severe patients. Finally, MoonLake’s MIRA trial does not pertain to psoriasis, but to the orphan disease HS, whose market is much smaller. While BiondVax is initially targeting IL-17 for treatment of psoriasis, its plan for the IL-17 nanobody includes addressing additional relevant diseases such as HS and psoriatic arthritis. The company plans to complete preclinical tests this year, and initiate clinical trials in 2024.

Why Women with MS See Decreased Symptoms When Pregnant

June 23, 2023 09:04:00

Most people with multiple sclerosis (MS) are women (74%), while men comprise only 24% of MS patients. Women are three times more likely to develop multiple sclerosis, and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society states that more women are developing the condition as time passes. Although we still haven’t figured out what exactly causes MS, researchers posit that factors such as stress, smoking, hormones such as estrogen, and inflammation may increase the risk of developing multiple sclerosis.

Many women with the condition have noticed that their symptoms decrease when they are pregnant, with some reporting a…

BiondVax Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (NASDAQ: BVXV) Expands Focus with Development of New NanoAb Therapeutics

Last September, a joint steering committee comprising professionals from BiondVax Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: BVXV), the Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences (“MPG”), and the University Medical Center Göttingen (“UMG”), made a decision.

This renewed focus would begin with the development of NanoAbs targeting immune system cytokines such as IL-17 (IL-17A, IL-17F, and IL-17A/F) for the potential treatment of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and IL-13 for the potential treatment of asthma (https://ibn.fm/AFw7N).
