Naoris Protocol announces World’s First Post-Quantum DePIN for Cybersecurity & Digital Trust ahead of Testnet

Naoris Protocol announces World’s First Post-Quantum DePIN for Cybersecurity & Digital Trust ahead of Testnet

Delaware, USA, Dec 4, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - As the digital world is increasingly threatened by advanced cyberattacks and looming quantum computing challenges, Naoris Protocol unveils groundbreaking technology that revolutionizes digital security through the world's first Post-Quantum powered Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) for cybersecurity and digital trust.Backed by prominent figures including DNS designer David Holtzman, former White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, and Shanfari & Partners Chairman H.E. Sheikh Thamer Said Ahmed al-Shanfari, this innovative protocol transforms traditional untrusted devices into a decentralized security layer of cyber-trusted validator nodes, eliminating single points of failure that plague centralized security systems.Decentralized Security: A Necessary Shift Amidst Rising Centralized FailuresThe launch comes at a critical time, following the CrowdStrike outages in July 2024 that demonstrated the vulnerabilities of centralized security frameworks. These incidents disrupted global services across aviation, banking, and media sectors, highlighting the urgent need for decentralized security solutions."Current centralized models are vulnerable by design," states David Carvalho, CEO & Founder of Naoris Protocol."Our protocol decentralizes digital security, where every device becomes a secure validator node as part of a trusted, incentivized layer that uses post-quantum cryptography to create a real time, decentralized validation brain."The protocol introduces four key innovations:Post-Quantum Security: Designed to withstand quantum computing, ensuring sensitive data and blockchain infrastructures are protected from next-generation cyber threats.Decentralized Security Layer: Devices actively validate and prove their trusted state in real time, creating a self-reinforcing security layer that scales without weakening.Incentivized Security Model: Devices are rewarded for maintaining security validations across the network to continually reinforce cyber defenses.Real-Time Validation: Continuous verification of node integrity mitigates risks of compromise or collusion, a stark contrast to static and reactive centralized systems.Impact on Expanding DePIN EcosystemsWith the DePIN market projected to reach $3.5 trillion by 2028, Naoris Protocol positions itself as the critical security DePIN for both Web2 and Web3 infrastructures. As DePIN expands into various industrial applications, the protocol provides essential infrastructure for DePIN ecosystems across cloud computing, storage, wireless and energy, offering unprecedented cyber resilience for community compute network models.DNS pioneer David Holtzman, serving as Chief Strategy Officer, emphasizes: "Naoris Protocol is not just another blockchain project; it's the security backbone that enables the entire DePIN sector to thrive safely. This could be the catalyst that propels decentralized infrastructures into mainstream adoption."Incentivized Testnet LaunchThe upcoming Testnet launch will allow users to participate in stress-testing this revolutionary system. Validating and maintaining security standards, while counteracting threats like phishing and network breaches, the testnet will lay the groundwork to seed a global post-quantum cybersecurity DePIN.For Testnet participation, visit https://naorisprotocol.network/For more information, visit https://www.naorisprotocol.com/ Naoris Protocol is available for interviews and technical demonstrations of their groundbreaking DePIN solution for cybersecurity and digital trust.Check out our White PapersStay connected: Twitter | Discord | Telegram | LinkedInContact: Guy DaviesCMO, Naoris ProtocolGuy@Naoris.com Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

25th Hong Kong Forum concludes successfully

HONG KONG, Dec 4, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – The 25th Hong Kong Forum drew to a successful close today, facilitating exchange and creating cooperation opportunities among businesses from different regions. Jointly organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and the Federation of Hong Kong Business Associations Worldwide (FHKBAW), the two-day event attracted more than 320 business leaders from 28 countries and regions, focusing on hot topics such as Hong Kong's business outlook, the development of the Northern Metropolis and youth entrepreneurship, providing participants with in-depth insights into different areas and actively promoting the advantages of Hong Kong's "eight centres".Promoting Hong Kong as a key international business platformGiving the opening remarks on the first day of the event, Margaret Fong, Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “We have held the Hong Kong Forum for 25 consecutive years. In the late 1990s, when the Asian financial crisis gripped much of the region and the long process of recovery had just begun, we launched this event to demonstrate to the world that, despite the crisis, our city remained a vital international business platform.”She also mentioned the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA). “With Hong Kong being the most international city in the GBA and a two-way gateway to Mainland China, our city is a ‘super-connector’ linking the mainland with the world. With our strengths in traditional industries and the strides we are making in newer sectors, Hong Kong is brimming with opportunities. Amid today’s digital and sustainability agendas, the city is accelerating its transition towards a more innovation-driven, digitally competitive and greener future.”Hans Poulis, Chairman of the Federation of Hong Kong Business Associations Worldwide, said: “We had some remarkable sessions lined up this year, including a discussion on the foundation of global competitiveness that emphasised the critical role of the rule of law and international cooperation in maintaining Hong Kong's status as a leading financial hub. We also explored the Northern Metropolis initiative, which aims to position Hong Kong as an international business and innovation hub, highlighting its strategic significance within the Greater Bay Area. We also delved into the efforts of local industries to drive sustainability, showcasing innovative practices that are shaping a greener future for Hong Kong.”John Lee, Chief Executive of the HKSAR, was Guest of Honour at the Hong Kong Forum’s keynote luncheon on the second day of the event (4 December). He said: “Hong Kong is the world's ‘super connector’. Hong Kong has long attracted businesses and investors, thanks to our clear and compelling advantages - from a free and open investment environment and simple and low tax system, to modern infrastructure and logistics networks and the unfettered flow of information, capital, goods and people.”He additionally mentioned: “To build on our strengths, the Hong Kong SAR Government has implemented a wide range of initiatives, over the past two years, promoting economic opportunities. We are pressing ahead with the development of the ‘eight centres’ of excellence, as set out in the 14th Five-Year Plan, as well as the Northern Metropolis, the new engine of Hong Kong's economic future. We've also set up Hong Kong Talent Engage and the Office for Attracting Strategic Enterprises, to boost our strategic value and drive for talent and enterprises.”Focusing on HK’s legal system, the Northern Metropolis and green transformationUpholding the rule of law and maintaining strong international cooperation are essential to the continued success of Hong Kong as a global financial and business hub. In a session titled “The Foundation of Global Competitiveness” on the first morning of the forum, Rimsky Yuen, Senior Counsel and former Secretary for Justice, examined how Hong Kong’s robust legal system, based on the principles of common law and the independence of the judiciary, has been instrumental in establishing the city as an open, transparent and trusted place for business.The latest Policy Address highlighted how Hong Kong is moving forward, with the Northern Metropolis becoming a new engine for the city’s future growth. Vic Yau, Director of the Northern Metropolis Co-ordination Office of the Development Bureau, provided participants with an overview of the key features and strategic significance of the Northern Metropolis initiative, highlighting its potential to strengthen Hong Kong's role as a leading finance-technology "dual engine" within the GBA. The Northern Metropolis will provide a new economic impetus for Hong Kong, underpinned by innovation and technology development that will help the city develop into an international business and innovation hub.Sustainability was also in focus at the forum, with local business leaders sharing their valuable experience in promoting green transformation in different industries and enterprises and providing participants with a comprehensive overview of their sustainability efforts and innovations. The speakers included Adriel Chan, Chair of the Hang Lung Group; Joseph Law, Managing Director of CLP Power; Poman Lo, Vice Chairman and Managing Director of Regal Hotels International; and Heidi Yu Spurrell, Founder & CEO, Future Green.In the morning session on the second day of the forum, a group of young Hong Kong-based entrepreneurs, include Sidhant Gupta, Cofounder of Clear Robotics Limited; Carla Martinesi, CEO & Cofounder of CHOMP; and Christian Secci, CEO & Cofounder of alfred24, discussed their experiences running startups with a focus on innovation and transformation, exploring how innovation drives entrepreneurship and creates fresh ideas, new technologies and different models that can help to transform industries.The forum also announced the latest addition to the FHKBAW, with the Spain-Hong Kong Business Association joining its ranks this year. This signals the continued expansion of the federation and reflects the strong interest European countries have in establishing ties with Hong Kong.Global business representatives visit Hong Kong logistics facilitiesOver the two days of the forum, FHKBAW representatives visited key logistics facilities, including Hong Kong Air Cargo Terminals Limited, Hong Kong International Airport and Cainiao Smart Gateway, to gain a better understanding of the latest developments in Hong Kong's logistics and air cargo industry, and to experience the unique opportunities presented by city’s “eight centres".The Hong Kong Forum is the annual flagship event of the FHKBAW.

TACACS.net: Strengthening Network Security with Native Active Directory Integration

TACACS.net: Strengthening Network Security with Native Active Directory Integration

SAN JOSE, CA, Dec 5, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In an era where 75% of security breaches are attributed to weak authentication, the importance of robust cybersecurity measures has never been greater. Recognizing this critical need, TACACS.net has emerged as the #1 choice for Active Directory (AD) integration, offering unmatched reliability, performance, and security.Authentication is often the weakest link in network security. If a hacker cannot authenticate to a device, they cannot exploit it. TACACS.net addresses this vulnerability by delivering a solution built to meet the needs of modern organizations, ensuring fast, secure, and seamless integration with existing infrastructure.Why TACACS.net Stands OutMost organizations rely on Active Directory to manage users, but competing solutions depend on middleware-complex intermediaries that often fail, usually at the worst possible time. TACACS.net is the only TACACS+ server built to run directly on Domain Controllers, eliminating middleware and ensuring native communication with your domain. This approach translates to faster, more stable, and inherently secure performance.Key Features of TACACS.netSeamless Active Directory Integration: Extends AD functionality to network devices such as routers, switches, firewalls, Wi-Fi controllers, and load balancers, using existing Users and Groups.Advanced Authorization Policies: Enables granular control over network access based on AD group memberships.Simplified Single Sign-On (SSO): Reduces administrative overhead while enhancing user experience.Included Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Provides robust MFA capabilities at no extra cost, improving authentication security.Transparent to Users: Your Users authenticate directly to network devices like they already do, without going through an intermediary jump server or proxy, and they can use their existing AD credentials.Unparalleled Technical Support: SLA-backed support is available via phone and email during business hours, with 24/7/365 support options for mission-critical environments.Built for Enterprise and ComplianceTACACS+ is a recognized Best Practice for security and is either required or strongly recommended to meet compliance requirements for many industries. Furthermore, top enterprise manufacturers already support TACACS+, so your network devices likely just need it enabled-making it a simple and cost effective, yet transformative upgrade. TACACS.net is the fastest, easiest, and most cost effective way to dramatically increase your security posture.A Decade of ExcellenceWith over a decade of proven reliability, TACACS.net has gained the trust of customers through outstanding service and support, responsible growth, and a steadfast commitment to dependability.

Sweetness Affecting Both the Young and Old: Prevent Diabetes with LAC This World Diabetes Day

Sweetness Affecting Both the Young and Old: Prevent Diabetes with LAC This World Diabetes Day

SINGAPORE, Dec 4, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - How much sugar does a Singaporean typically take in a day? In a recent speech by Health Minister Mr. Ong Ye Kung, Singapore is too sweet. While the average daily sugar intake of Singaporeans has fallen from 60g in 2018 to 56g in 2022, this number still works out to about 11 teaspoons of daily sugar consumption, about 10% higher than the ideal intake of less than 50g.Amid an ageing population, the younger generation in Singapore is also increasingly affected by this chronic condition, highlighting a growing national health concern related to sugar consumption.Sugar, a common mis-solution to anxiety, often provides a sense of fleeting comfort. The instant boost in dopamine from sugar can create a cycle of dependency, giving temporary relief from stress or anxiety but contributing to harmful physical effects, such as inflammation, weight gain, and insulin resistance.The overconsumption of sugar, combined with sedentary lifestyles and other unhealthy dietary habits have contributed to diabetes becoming a major global health crisis today – Alarmingly, diabetes rates are rising among the younger generation, including both teenagers and young adults, contributing to nearly half a million cases in Singapore. Astonishingly, 40% of Singaporeans remain unaware of their pre-diabetic status, an often silent condition that could lead to type 2 diabetes.Diabetes is a chronic condition that if left unmanaged, can lead to serious health complications, including an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, kidney failure, nerve damage or even vision loss. However, type 2 diabetes can be prevented through proactive lifestyle changes, including healthy eating, regular physical activity, so as to maintain optimal blood sugar levels.In line with World Diabetes Day on 14 November, LAC (pronounced as L-A-C) is dedicated to highlight the importance of taking preventative measures against diabetes. By incorporating supplements that support blood sugar regulation and reduce carbohydrate absorption, along with a healthy diet and increased physical activity, individuals can maintain their glucose levels and maintain their metabolic health.LAC GlucoX is designed to support healthy glucose levels.

Everest Medicines Announces Positive Results in Preliminary Analysis of Phase 1b/2a Clinical Trial of EVER001, a Novel BTK Inhibitor for the Treatment of Primary Membranous Nephropathy

- Patients in the low-dose cohort who have completed 36 weeks of treatment, 9 out of 11 (81.8%) achieved overall clinical remission and 10 out of 11 (91%) achieved immunological complete remission.- In the high dose cohort, 6 out of 7 (85.7%) patients achieved overall clinical remission and all patients achieved immunological complete remission by week 24.- EVER001 was generally safe and well tolerated. No clinically significant adverse events typically associated with earlier-generation BTK inhibitors, such as bleeding, arrhythmia, severe infection, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, or severe liver function impairment, were reported.SHANGHAI, Dec 4, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Everest Medicines (HKEX 1952.HK,“Everest”, or the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization of innovative therapeutics, today announced positive results in the ongoing Phase 1b/2a clinical trial for the treatment of primary membranous nephropathy (pMN) with EVER001 (previously known as XNW1011), a next-generation covalent reversible Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor. In an analysis of the data available as of September 13th, 2024, results from the Phase 1b/2a clinical trial showed that for patients in the low-dose cohort who have completed 36 weeks of treatment, 9 out of 11 (81.8%) achieved overall clinical remission1 and 10 out of 11 (91%) achieved immunological complete remission (ICR)2. In the high dose cohort, 6 out of 7 (85.7%) patients achieved overall clinical remission and all patients achieved ICR by week 24.EVER001 is a covalent reversible BTK inhibitor with potentially best-in-class characteristics for the treatment of autoimmune renal diseases. Compared to covalent irreversible BTK inhibitors, EVER001 offers improved selectivity while maintaining high potency, thereby potentially avoiding many of the side effects associated with earlier-generation BTK inhibitors. Everest Medicines holds global rights to EVER001 for the treatment of renal diseases.The Phase 1b/2a clinical trial of EVER001 for the treatment of pMN is an ongoing trial conducted in China. A total of 31 patients with biopsy-proven pMN who tested positive for anti-PLA2R autoantibodies were enrolled into two cohorts. The total treatment duration was 36 weeks. Based on the patient data collected by September 13th, 2024, in the low-dose cohort, the geometric least squares mean 24-hour proteinuria decreased by 78.3% at week 36 compared to baseline, while the high-dose cohort achieved a 73.8% reduction by week 24. EVER001 treatment induced greater than 90% reductions in anti-PLA2R antibody as early as week 24 in the low-dose cohort and week 12 in the high-dose cohort. EVER001 was generally safe and well tolerated. No clinically significant adverse events typically associated with earlier-generation BTK inhibitors, such as bleeding, arrhythmia, severe infection, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, or severe liver function impairment, were reported."We are excited to see the encouraging results in this preliminary analysis of our Phase 1b/2a clinical proof-of-concept trial of EVER001. This demonstrates the potential of EVER001 as a next-generation BTK inhibitor for the treatment of various autoimmune renal diseases, including pMN. "Rogers Yongqing Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Everest Medicines, said:"This data release marks the first time Everest Medicines has disclosed results from its global pipeline. We look forward to completing this trial and sharing detailed data in future conferences and publications. Moving forward, we will continue to drive the global clinical development of EVER001, to meet patients' urgent clinical needs.”Membranous nephropathy is a common pathological type of nephrotic syndrome in adults, and its prevalence in China has been increasing, ranking second only to IgA nephropathy3. There are about 2 million patients with pMN in China, with an estimated 80,000 to 100,000 patients in the United States, 80,000 in Europe, and 40,000 in Japan. There are no approved drugs for this indication worldwide. The current treatment goal is to improve remission rates, reduce high relapse rates, and minimize the risk of chronic toxicity caused by currently available treatments. More than one-third of pMN patients still progress to end-stage renal disease under current standards of care.This Phase 1b/2a clinical trial was approved by the Center for Drug Evaluation of the National Medical Products Administration in September 2022 to evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of EVER001 in Chinese patients with glomerular diseases characterized by proteinuria. The previously published results of a Phase 1 study conducted in healthy Chinese and Australian subjects conducted by SinoMab BioScience indicate that EVER001 has high selectivity, excellent pharmacokinetic properties, a good safety profile, and strong target binding.About EVER001EVER001 (previously known as XNW1011) is a next-generation covalent reversible Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor in development globally for the treatment of renal diseases. BTK is an essential component of the B-cell receptor signaling pathways that regulate the survival, activation, proliferation, and differentiation of B lymphocytes. Targeting BTK with small molecule inhibitors has been demonstrated to be an effective treatment option for B-cell lymphomas and autoimmune diseases. Based in part on results from a completed phase 1 trial with healthy subjects conducted by SinoMab in China, EVER001 exhibited high selectivity, excellent pharmacokinetics properties, strong target binding and a safety profile that supports continued clinical development.Under an exclusive licensing agreement with Sinovent Pharmaceuticals and SinoMab BioScience, Everest owns global rights to develop, produce and commercialize EVER001 for the treatment of renal diseases.Investor Calls InformationEverest Medicines will hold investor calls on the data results from EVER001 Phase 1b/2a clinical study in primary membranous nephropathy.

Machine learning used to optimise polymer production

Machine learning used to optimise polymer production

TSUKUBA, Japan, Dec 2, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Polymers, such as plastics, are essential in many aspects of life and industry, from packaging and cars to medical devices and optic fibres. Their value comes from diverse properties that are largely determined by their monomers – the single chemical units – that make up a polymer. Unfortunately, it can be challenging to control the chemical behaviour of monomers during manufacture to achieve a desired outcome.The flow synthesis reactor with two bottles containing a monomer, initiator and solvent mixed using a micromixer. The synthesis is controlled with AI-based design of experimental conditions such as the temperature and a flow rate. Now, a team of researchers led by Professor Mikiya Fujii of the Nara Institute of Science and Technology in Japan have used machine learning to mathematically model the polymerization process and reduce the need for time-consuming and expensive experimentation. Their results have been published in the journal Science and Technology of Advanced Materials: Methods.Machine learning algorithms need data, so the researchers designed a polymerization process that would quickly and efficiently generate experimental data to feed into the mathematical model. The target molecule was a styrene-methyl methacrylate co-polymer, which was made by mixing styrene and methyl methacrylate monomers, both already dissolved in a solvent with an added initiator substance, then heating them in a water bath.The team also used a method called flow synthesis, in which the two monomer solutions are mixed and heated in a constant flow. This allows for better mixing, more efficient heating, and more precise control of heating time and flow rate, which makes it ideal for use with machine learning.The modelling evaluated the effect of five key variables in the polymerization process: the concentration of the initiator, the ratio of solvent to monomer, the proportion of styrene, the temperature of the reaction, and the time spent in the water bath. The goal was to have an end product with as close to 50% styrene as possible.Once enough experimental data was available, the machine learning process took only five cycles of calculation to achieve the ideal proportion of styrene to methyl methacrylate. The results showed that the key was a lower temperature and longer time in the water bath, as well as lowering the relative concentration of the monomer in the solvent. The researchers were surprised to discover that the solvent concentration was just as important as the proportion of monomers going into the mix.“Our results demonstrate that machine learning not only can explicitly reveal what humans may have implicitly taken for granted but can also provide new insights that weren’t recognized before,” Professor Mikiya Fujii says. “The use of machine learning in chemistry could open the door for smarter, greener manufacturing processes with reduced waste and energy consumption.”Further informationMikiya FujiiNara Institute of Science and TechnologyEmail: fujii.mikiya@ms.naist.jp Paper: https://doi.org/10.1080/27660400.2024.2425178About Science and Technology of Advanced Materials: Methods (STAM-M)STAM Methods is an open access sister journal of Science and Technology of Advanced Materials (STAM), and focuses on emergent methods and tools for improving and/or accelerating materials developments, such as methodology, apparatus, instrumentation, modeling, high-through put data collection, materials/process informatics, databases, and programming. https://www.tandfonline.com/STAM-M Dr Yasufumi NakamichiSTAM Publishing DirectorEmail: NAKAMICHI.Yasufumi@nims.go.jp Press release distributed by Asia Research News for Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.

Military Metals Responds to China’s Export Ban on Critical Minerals

Military Metals Responds to China’s Export Ban on Critical Minerals

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - December 3, 2024) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the "Company" or "MILI") a leading North American exploration company focused on critical minerals, acknowledges today's announcement by China banning exports of gallium, germanium, and antimony to the United States. This move underscores the urgent need for Western nations to secure reliable long-term sources of these essential materials.Antimony, a critical component in military applications, energy storage, and advanced manufacturing, is now at the forefront of the global supply chain crisis. China's ban, coupled with existing restrictions that came into effect September 15, 2024, has already sent antimony prices soaring by over 228% this year(1). The Western world faces mounting pressure to address its reliance on China for strategic resources critical to national defense and technological innovation. This ban comes at a time when defense sector inventories are at already concerningly low levels.(2)Military Metals recent antimony mineral project acquisitions in Slovakia, Nova Scotia, and Nevada provide shareholders with a pure antimony play with a diverse portfolio in top jurisdictions."This announcement from China reinforces the importance of Military Metals' mission to secure a sustainable, independent future supply chain for critical minerals," said Scott Eldridge, CEO of Military Metals Corp. "The West can no longer afford to rely on adversarial nations for resources essential to our security and economic stability. We are taking proactive steps to meet this growing demand with future domestic and allied sources of antimony."As geopolitical tensions escalate and the trade war intensifies, Military Metals will continue to prioritize the development of critical mineral resources and work closely with governments and industry partners to ensure the West remains resilient and self-sufficient.About Military Metals Corp. The Company is a British Columbia-based mineral exploration company that is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties with a focus on antimony.ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD of DIRECTORSFor more information, please contact:Scott EldridgeCEO and Directorscott@militarymetalscorp.comFor enquiries, please call 604-722-5381 or 604-537-7556This news release contains "forward-looking information".

康哲药业获得治疗痛风及高尿酸血症的1类新药独家商业化权利

深圳, 2024年12月2日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 康哲药业控股有限公司(以下简称"康哲药业")欣然宣布,于2024年12月2日,通过其全资附属公司与杭州新元素药业有限公司(以下称"新元素药业",曾用名"江苏新元素医药科技有限公司")就治疗痛风及高尿酸血症的1类新药ABP-671("产品")签订独家商业化协议("协议")。根据协议,康哲药业获得产品在中国大陆、香港特别行政区及澳门特别行政区的独家商业化权利。合作期限开始于协议生效之日,自产品首次在中国大陆获批上市起拥有十年的授权期限("授权期限")。授权期限届满后,根据协议约定的特定条件,授权期限可自动续期十年。ABP-671是用于治疗痛风及高尿酸血症的化药1类创新药,目前正分别在中国和境外开展关于痛风的2b/3期临床试验,产品通过抑制尿酸盐转运蛋白1(URAT1),降低肾脏对尿酸的重吸收。在已经完成的两项2期临床试验结果显示,ABP-671多个剂量组(1mg至12mg)表现出良好的药效和安全性。该产品2mg每天单次给药,其药效可能相当于或优于苯溴马隆和非布司他最高剂量80mg的药效。尿酸下降可维持全天候24小时,没有出现严重的安全性问题。产品有望为痛风及高尿酸血症患者带来疗效更优、安全性更高的治疗选择[1]。与ABP-671相关的化合物和用途方面的多个专利已在中国获得授权。高尿酸血症是指成人在正常嘌呤饮食情况下,非同日2次空腹血尿酸水平超过420μmol/L (7.0mg/dL)。高尿酸血症患者出现尿酸盐晶体沉积,导致痛风性关节炎,称为痛风。高尿酸血症及痛风可引起关节软骨、骨质、肾脏以及血管壁等急慢性炎症损伤,导致心、脑、肾等多器官损害。《2021中国高尿酸及痛风趋势白皮书》数据显示,我国高尿酸血症的总体的患病率为13.3%,高尿酸血症患病人数约1.77亿人,痛风总体发病率为1.1%,患病人数约为1,466万。据弗若斯特沙利文分析,未来中国高尿酸血症和痛风患病人数会持续增加,将在2030年分别达到2.4亿人、5,220万人。目前我国临床上常用的降尿酸药物主要包括抑制尿酸合成和促进尿酸排泄两类,由于已上市降尿酸药物在疗效和安全性上仍存在一定的局限性,如导致肾衰竭、心脏猝死或严重肝脏毒性等。中国痛风及高尿酸血症患者对高效安全的降尿酸药物仍然有迫切的需求。ABP-671是当前痛风及高尿酸血症治疗中潜在疗效优、安全性好的产品。通过本次合作引进,填补了康哲药业痛风治疗产品的空白。痛风及高尿酸血症既属于风湿疾病又属于慢性代谢性疾病,与康哲药业心脑血管/消化业务的战略布局,以及在售品种的网络资源高度契合。ABP-671如未来获批上市,在风湿免疫科可与在售产品美泰彤(甲氨蝶呤注射液),在内分泌科和骨科可与益盖宁(依降钙素注射液)在专家网络与市场资源方面协同。基于未满足的临床需求和产品预期扎实的临床数据,期待ABP-671的临床开发工作顺利推进,使相关适应症患者尽快从创新疗法中获益。关于新元素药业新元素药业创办于2012年3月,专注于代谢和炎症领域疾病中具有全球商业价值和全球竞争力的创新药的研发。新元素药业主要核心团队人员来自美国,具有广泛的创新药物的研发经验,过去几年新元素药业取得了显著的发展成果。其核心产品ABP-671正处于后期临床研发阶段,用于治疗慢性痛风;另一个小分子创新药物ABP-745用于抗炎自免领域适应症,已完成1期临床,表现出良好的PK和安全性,即将进入2期临床。有关新元素药业及其产品的更多信息,请访问其官方网站:https://www.atombp.com/。关于康哲药业康哲药业是一家链接医药创新与商业化,把控产品全生命周期管理的开放式平台型企业,致力于提供有竞争力的产品和服务,满足尚未满足的医疗需求。康哲药业专注于全球首创(FIC)及同类最优(BIC)的创新产品,并高效推进创新产品临床研究开发和商业化进程,赋能科研成果向诊疗实践的持续转化,造福患者。康哲药业聚焦专科领域,拥有被验证的商业化能力,广泛的渠道覆盖和多疾病领域专家资源,核心在售产品已获领先的学术与市场地位。康哲药业围绕优势专科领域不断纵深发展,以巩固心脑血管/消化业务竞争力,并将皮肤医美、眼科业务独立运营,培育专科小领域的大龙头,提升专科规模效率。同时业务版图拓展至东南亚市场,着力成为全球药企进军东南亚市场的"桥头堡",助力康哲药业高质量持续健康发展。参考文献:1.产品2期临床试验结果已发布,详情如下:https://www.atombp.com/2023/03/01/atom-bioscience-announces-positive-results-of-phase-2a-china-clinical-trial-of-its-urat1-inhibitor-for-chronic-gout/康哲药业免责与前瞻性声明本新闻无意向您做任何产品的推广,非广告用途。本新闻不对任何药品和医疗器械和/或适应症作推荐。若您想了解具体疾病诊疗信息,请遵从医生或其他医疗卫生专业人士的意见或指导。医疗卫生专业人士作出的任何与治疗有关的决定应根据患者的具体情况并遵照药品说明书。由康哲药业编制的此新闻不构成购买或认购任何证券的任何要约或邀请,不形成任何合约或任何其他约束性承诺的依据或加以依赖。本新闻由康哲药业根据其认为可靠之资料及数据编制,但康哲药业并无进行任何说明或保证、明述或暗示,或其他表述,对本新闻内容的真实性、准确性、完整性、公平性及合理性不应加以依赖。本新闻中讨论的若干事宜可能包含涉及康哲药业的市场机会及业务前景的陈述,该等陈述分别或统称为前瞻性声明。该等前瞻性声明并非对未来表现的保证,存在已知及未知的风险、不明朗性及难以预知的假设。康哲药业并不采纳本新闻包含的第三方所做的任何前瞻性声明及预测,康哲药业对该等第三方声明及预测不承担责任。 Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

eBRAM Partners with Agency for Volunteer Service to Launch ‘Pro-Bono Online Mediation Scheme for Water Seepage Disputes’

HONG KONG,Dec 3, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In order to resolve conflicts and disputes between property owners and occupants in Hong Kong caused by water seepage issues, eBRAM International Online Dispute Resolution Centre (“eBRAM”), an independent non-profit arbitration and mediation organisation, today joined hands with the Agency for Volunteer Service to officially launch the Pro-bono Online Mediation Scheme for Water Seepage Disputes (“Scheme”). The Scheme is free of charge and aims to foster a harmonious community by providing the public with efficient and economical online mediation services to help resolve water seepage disputes in the community.The Scheme has received strong support from the “Joint Office” set up by the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department and the Buildings Department. When water seepage issues arise, both parties involved can agree to conduct mediation at any stage. The parties can do so by submitting a request through eBRAM’s platform under the Scheme. The platform will then arrange for independent and neutral volunteer mediators to mediate the parties’ dispute. The Scheme aims to enable parties to resolve disputes in the simplest, most cost-effective, and time-efficient manner.Actively Assumes Social Responsibility and Alleviates the Concerns and Difficulties of the CitizensThe issue of building leakage or water seepage is a common source of dispute in the Hong Kong community, and multi-faceted issue encompasses cost split and responsibility for carrying out repairs . This issue has been troubling property owners and occupants in Hong Kong, as it is complicated and involves multiple parties’ responsibilities. Traditional legal proceedings are time-consuming and expensive, making it difficult to resolve these issues in a short period of time, which often causes great suffering to the residents involved.In view of this, as a leading non-profit arbitration and mediation organisation in Hong Kong, eBRAM actively uses innovative approaches to address social livelihood issues. Launched in cooperation with the Agency for Volunteer Service and supported by the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department and the Buildings Department, this free online mediation service fills a gap in legal services and provides an efficient, economical and convenient solution for members of the public who are in need.Efficiently Resolves Water Seepage Disputes, Highlights Advantages of Online MediationeBRAM’s mediation rules and online dispute resolution platform have overcome the time and space limitations of traditional mediation, allowing parties to participate in mediation process anytime and anywhere. Compared with cumbersome litigation procedures, online mediation is fast and efficient, and lowers the threshold for resolving disputes so that both parties do not have to go through lengthy legal proceedings and pay expensive litigation fees. This flexible service model meets the needs of the busy public living in modern cities to build a harmonious community.In addition, mediation is led by the parties involved, who have more control over the outcome. Both parties can work together to agree on a solution, rather than leaving the decision-making process entirely to the court. At the same time, mediation emphasizes fairness and understanding, which aims to reduce tensions between the parties, avoids escalation of conflicts, and protects their neighbourhood relations. As a third party, professional mediators maintain a neutral stance and assist the parties in discussing feasible solutions that give them peace of mind.Innovative LawTech to Help Build a Harmonious FutureDr Thomas So, JP, Chairman of eBRAM, said, "We are committed to serving our society, promoting sustainable development, and giving back to the community by leveraging innovative technologies and applying our expertise. By collaborating with the Agency for Volunteer Service and with the support of the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department and the Buildings Department, the launch of the free ‘Pro-bono Online Mediation Scheme for Water Seepage Disputes’ has not only helped solve the public’s livelihood issues, but also provided new ideas for building a harmonious and inclusive social environment. Looking ahead, we will continue to work closely with the government and other organisations to provide high-quality and efficient dispute resolution services to more members of the public."Ms. Melissa Pang, BBS, MH, JP, Chairman of the Agency for Volunteer Service, said, "We have always been attentive to the needs of the members of the public and are committed to playing a pivotal role in collaborating with various sectors of society to address livelihood issues. By having dedicated professional mediators who are passionate about serving society as volunteer workers, we provide free mediation services to relevant owners and occupants through eBRAM’s online platform, believing that we can play a crucial role in resolving building leakage disputes within the community. We look forward to promoting community harmony through this innovative initiative, ensuring that members of the public can live and work in peace."According to the figures released by the Joint Office, over the past five years, there have been an average of over 40,000 complaints per year on water seepage issues. The number of cases in which the source of water seepage was identified and relevant investigations completed averaged around 5,800 cases per year, accounting for approximately 14.5% of the total number of complaints. As at September 2023, the number of cases under investigation was around 10,000. Between 2020 and 2022, investigation on approximately 30% of the cases could not be completed and complainants were not informed of the investigation results within 90 working days. The “Pro-bono Online Mediation Scheme for Water Seepage Disputes” initiated by eBRAM and the Agency for Volunteer Service is set to effectively reduce the time required to handle water seepage cases, increase efficiency in addressing the public’s livelihood issues, and play a more active role in promoting harmony in the community and reducing social conflicts.“Pro-bono Online Mediation Scheme for Water Seepage Disputes” Webpage:https://ebram.org/Water_Seepage_POM_Scheme/?language=en Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Close to 50 companies applied and after reviewing the applications, 15 businesses were selected to pitch their capabilities to an audience that included lightweight lattice structures, gas detection technologies, advanced battery and photonics applications, and several innovative unmanned system and AI applications, among many others."This event is where the rubber meets the road," said Brad Lunn, Managing Director-Strategic Finance at GA-ASI. "In addition to attracting many companies, we increased the areas of expertise and depth of knowledge from the presenting companies in order to provide research, development, and breakthrough innovations to support current and future missions by GA-ASI aircraft. We also wanted to give the companies an opportunity to pitch in front of other potential customers, partners, and investors."The first Blue Magic event held by GA-ASI was in 2019 in Belgium, with subsequent events held in 2020, 2021, and 2023.
