The result was Keep as per positive consensus and the lack of calls for deletion outside of the nominator. The initial concern regarding the company's notability has been answered with MelanieN's input with references that confirms the subject meets the WP:CORP requirement. A non-admin closure.

Opexa Therapeutics

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

A company with no marketed products. Speedy declined on the grounds that NASDAQ corporations are almost always notable. If so, this is one of the ones that are the exceptions. It's more or less in the category of a band which has never successfully released a recording.  DGG ( talk ) 16:59, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep Passes WP:CORP. I have added several references to the article. In the pharmaceutical industry, you don't have to have an actual marketed product to get a lot of press. As for the NASDAQ listing, WP:LISTED states that notability is not automatic for publicly traded companies listed on major exchanges such as NASDAQ; "however, sufficient independent sources almost always exist for such companies, so that notability can be established using the primary criterion discussed above" (i.e., GNG). --MelanieN (talk) 01:33, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep NASDAQ-listed with a number of good references. Evolife (talk) 19:27, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
