AGENTIX Corporation and the National Health Research Institutions Announce Worldwide Exclusive License Agreements — New York, New York–(Newsfile Corp. – September 8, 2021) – AGENTIX Corp. (OTC Pink: AGTX), a pharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative therapeutic treatments targeting the endocannabinoid system (ECS) for the treatment of metabolic diseases, announced today it had entered into a worldwide exclusive license agreement and technology transfer agreement with the National Health Research Institutes (“NHRI”) of Taiwan ROC, a nonprofit research institute, concerning the development and commercialization of DBPR211, an innovative new chemical entity with pre-clinical evidence demonstrating efficacy as a treatment for Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD). This technology is a peripherally restricted cannabinoid receptor 1 antagonist that has successfully completed preliminary pre-clinical and in vivo testing requirements, including demonstrating it does not cross the blood brain barrier.

It is estimated there are 34.2 million people with T2D in the USA1; obesity prevalence has risen to 42.9%2; and experts estimate 24% of US adults have NAFLD3. Treatment options vary depending on the patient and disease. Metabolic comorbidities with NAFLD include T2D and obesity1. The endocannabinoid system plays a physiologic role in modulating energy balance, feeding behavior, lipoprotein metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and glucose homeostasis, which when dysregulated can all contribute to cardiometabolic risk. Evidence has suggested that the ECS is overactive in human obesity4.
