Genprex Inc () CEO Rodney Varner tells Proactive the Texas-based biotech has signed a licensing agreement with the University of Pittsburgh for a diabetes gene therapy that could have the potential to treat Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
Varner says the newly licensed diabetes gene therapy was an 'opportunity we couldn't pass up' because of its large market opportunity and 'massive' medical need.
