E-Therapeutics PLC (ETX.LN) said Thursday that it has signed an expanded agreement with Novo Nordisk AS (NOVO-B.KO) to provide its technology to aid in diabetes drug research.

The London-listed provider of digital technology for drug discovery said that it will use its technology to analyze genetic data in groups of patients with type 2 diabetes. This agreement builds on a previously-signed collaboration with the Danish pharmaceutical company in the space of drug discovery research.

The new deal extends the original contract by six months to June 2020, e-Therapeutics said.
