Top Products and Market Share
Key Offerings
- REQORSAu2122 (quaratusugene ozeplasmid): A gene therapy targeting tumor suppressor genes. Currently in clinical trials for NSCLC. Market share is currently 0 as the product is not yet commercially available. Competitors include companies developing targeted therapies and immunotherapies for NSCLC, such as AstraZeneca (AZN), Merck (MRK), and Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY).
- GPX-002: A gene therapy designed to reprogram pancreatic cells to treat Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Currently in preclinical development. Competitors include Novo Nordisk (NVO), Eli Lilly (LLY), and Sanofi (SNY).
Market Dynamics
Industry Overview
The gene therapy market is rapidly growing, driven by advancements in biotechnology and increasing investment in research and development. The market is characterized by high regulatory hurdles and significant clinical trial costs.
Positioning
Genprex is a small-cap company focused on gene therapy for cancer and diabetes. Its competitive advantage lies in its proprietary Oncoprex platform and its focus on underserved medical needs.
Total Addressable Market (TAM)
The global gene therapy market is expected to reach billions of dollars in the coming years. Genprex's TAM is tied to the NSCLC and diabetes markets. Given the specific subtypes of cancer and stages where REQORSA is being tested, Genprex's immediate TAM is smaller than the overall market but has significant growth potential. Specific numbers are difficult to predict due to clinical trial timelines and regulatory approvals.

Genprex, Inc., a clinical-stage gene therapy company, focuses on developing therapies for patients with cancer and diabetes. The company's technologies are designed to administer disease-fighting genes to provide new therapies for patient populations with cancer and diabetes. Its oncology program utilizes its systemic, non-viral Oncoprex Delivery System, which encapsulates the gene-expressing plasmids using lipid-based nanoparticles in a lipoplex form. The company's lead product candidate, Reqorsa Immunogene Therapy (quaratusugene ozeplasmid), is being evaluated in three clinical trials as a treatment for NSCLC and SCLC. Its three lung cancer clinical programs have received a Fast Track Designation from the FDA for the treatment of that patient population, and SCLC program has received an FDA Orphan Drug Designation. The company's diabetes gene therapy comprises of a novel infusion process that uses an AAV vector to deliver Pdx1 and MafA genes directly to the pancreas. In models of Type 1 diabetes, its GPX-002 transforms alpha cells in the pancreas into functional beta-like cells, which produce insulin but distinct enough from beta cells to evade the body's immune system; and GPX-002 for Type 2 diabetes, where autoimmunity is not at play, is believed to rejuvenate and replenish exhausted beta cells. It has research agreement with The University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center and Lung Cancer Study Collaboration with ALK Positive. Genprex, Inc. was incorporated in 2009 and is headquartered in Austin, Texas.
