What is Endogenex?
Endogenex is pioneering a novel treatment for type 2 diabetes by targeting the duodenum, a key area implicated in the disease's progression. The company's proprietary outpatient endoscopic procedure utilizes non-thermal pulsed electric fields (PEF) energy to treat inflamed and dysfunctional duodenal tissue. This innovative technique aims to stimulate the body's natural cell regeneration processes, restoring gut health and offering patients a path beyond mere symptom management, with the potential to slow or even reverse disease progression. Endogenex's science-driven approach seeks to redefine the landscape of diabetes care.
