Caprion Pharmaceuticals Inc.'s Applied BioMedicine group has announced an expansion of a previously established biomarker research collaboration with Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated.

"We believe this expanded collaboration reflects the interest of biotechnology companies to integrate biomarker discovery efforts into major drug development programs," noted Dr. Daniel Chelsky, Executive Vice-President and Chief Scientific Officer at Caprion.
"Caprion is pleased with the progress made under the original collaboration with Vertex, and we look forward to further broadening the collaboration in the coming months."
