香港, 2025年4月7日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 在經歷了1972-1980年、2002年-2012年兩輪牛市後，2019年8月1日，美聯儲十年來首次降息，海外央行紛紛跟進放水，以及國際地緣政治日趨複雜等因素擾動下，美元信用逐漸走弱，作為避險資產的黃金顯現獨特價值，步入第三輪牛市。持續至今的黃金大牛市下，處於產業鏈上游的金礦企業無疑是最大受益者之一，不僅表現在產能擴張、業績增長上，也體現在股價的持續拉升上。港股黃金開採板塊中，截至今年3月31日，萬國黃金集團（03939.HK）自去年3月以來累計上漲214.46%，近兩年的漲幅更超過7倍，領漲整個板塊，更遠遠跑贏大盤。股價能有如此強勢表現，得益於萬國黃金集團主業轉型的成功。同時，公司還於3月10日起進入港股通，流動性獲得大幅提升，股價亦再創新高，3月20日盤中創下18.36港元的歷史最高點。被納入港股通標的以來，公司獲南下資金持續增持，截至3月底，港股通持股比例增至1.41%，持股市值2.42億港元。收購金嶺礦實現主業轉型，邁入高潛力增長新階段萬國黃金集團原名"萬國國際礦業"，主要在中國及所羅門群島從事採礦、礦石選礦及銷售精礦產品業務，在2023年之前，一直以旗下新莊礦的精礦產品為主要收入來源，而自2023年之後，金嶺礦的收入規模逐漸超過新莊礦，位居第一。出於對黃金走牛趨勢的精准預判，萬國黃金集團早於2020年4月30日收購了祥符金嶺有限公司的77.78%權益，而後者擁有位於所羅門群島的一處金嶺礦90%權益，並於2022年11月起開始試產。整個2023年是金嶺礦的產能爆發之年，全年實現收入約人民幣6.58億元，一舉超過新莊礦約人民幣5.73億元的總營收，占萬國黃金集團總營收的比重提升至50.1%，成為公司第一大收入來源。也正因為金嶺礦的產能擴張，使得萬國黃金集團2023年業績大增，收入、歸母淨利潤分別增長93.0%、85.8%。2024年上半年，公司收入、歸母淨利潤繼續保持快速增長，增速達59.7%、72.9%，其中金嶺礦收入占比進一步提升至約60.5%。看到如此良好勢頭，公司也趁熱打鐵，於2024年10月9日完成收購祥符金嶺額外20.22%權益，由此擁有祥符金嶺的98%權益及金嶺礦的88.2%實際權益，將"金嶺礦"這一聚寶盆牢牢攥在手中。事實證明，這一策略是極為正確的。隨著勘探專案的不斷推進及生產工藝的循序改進，金嶺礦銷量持續提升，使得萬國黃金集團的第一大收入來源發生了改變，更名成為水到渠成之事。2024年8月6日起，公司名稱正式由原來的"萬國國際礦業集團有限公司"更改為"萬國黃金集團有限公司"，以全新的企業定位和品牌形象，踏上跨越式發展的快車道。2024年度，核心主營業務升級為黃金開採及銷售的萬國黃金集團，業績繼續穩步提升。全年實現收入約人民幣18.76億元，同比增加42.6%，其中，來自金嶺礦的收入同比增加80.4%，占比63.3%。整體毛利約人民幣9.97億元，同比增加61.0%，整體毛利率53.2%；金嶺礦毛利同比增加98.1%，毛利率55.6%，高出整體毛利率2.4個百分點。公司歸母淨利潤約人民幣5.75億元，同比增加71.6%。以上數據可以看出，金嶺礦無論是收入、毛利潤增幅，還是毛利率，都要高於萬國黃金集團的整體水準，對增厚公司盈利產生的引擎作用明顯。這也從側面說明了，公司審時度勢，順應本輪黃金牛市而進行主業轉型，經受住了市場的考驗。產能爬坡提速進行時，機構看好業務發展前景從投產過程來看，萬國黃金集團旗下金嶺礦於2022年8月開始堆浸廠試生產，並從2023年1月1日開始浮選廠試生產。於此試產階段，金嶺礦的浮選精礦產量一直在穩步提高，接近其設計產能。根據公司披露，截至2023年12月31日，金嶺礦的礦產資源總量為7,200萬噸（含金量330萬盎司），儲量為2,870萬噸（含120萬盎司黃金）。公司發佈的最新數據顯示，截至2024年7月31日，金嶺礦的礦產資源總量為1.96億噸（含金量730萬盎司），較2023年底增幅分別為172.2%及121.2%。儲量為3,070萬噸（含130萬盎司黃金），較2023年底增加7.0%和8.3%。根據業績報告，於2024年，金嶺礦的採礦量約271.3萬噸，同比增加85.0%；選礦量約228.1萬噸，同比增加96.9%。對此，民生證券在最新研報中指出，以20年左右的礦山生命週期來預估，未來金嶺金礦年產量或能達到10噸以上，成長空間廣闊。該行認為，萬國黃金集團未來成長空間廣闊，隨著公司採礦恢復正常，選礦逐步改善，當前產能爬坡預計提速，同時未來還有進一步擴產的可能，疊加金價景氣，看好公司後續黃金產量持續增長，迎來量價齊升。中信證券則認為，目前金嶺礦專案技改階段正處於爬坡期，增儲落地有望促進專案第二階段規劃和建設，預測金嶺礦長期產量潛力有望達到8-10噸/年以上，效益釋放正當時，成長前景遠大。此外，金嶺礦收購的資源對價僅為行業平均水準的三分之一，疊加規模效應以及電力供應改善，成本優勢有望進一步夯實。該行預計2025年量增、降本、價漲的延續，將促進萬國黃金集團業績延續快速增長，近期金嶺礦資源翻倍式增長為中長期擴產提供支撐，給予公司2015年17倍PE估值，首次覆蓋並給予公司"買入"評級，目標價20港元。獲納入恒指及港股通，長期投資價值持續彰顯近期，除了2024年度業績報喜，萬國黃金集團還獲納入恒生綜合指數，並成為港股通標的，預示著其未來發展將迎來諸多利好。今年2月21日，恒生指數公司公佈最新季檢結果，其中萬國黃金集團滿足了包括市值、流動性和上市時間等在內的一系列標準，獲納入恒生綜合指數成份股。其後，根據深圳證券交易所公告，因應恒生綜合指數成份股定期調整，深港通下的港股通標的證券名單於2025年3月10日起實施重大調整，萬國黃金集團獲調入，進入港股通名單。被納入恒指，是資本市場對萬國黃金集團長期投資價值的高度認可。恒生指數作為香港市場的重要風向標，其成分股的選擇極為嚴苛，需綜合考量公司的市值規模、財務狀況、行業地位以及發展前景等多方面因素。公司能夠脫穎而出，成為其中一員，充分證明了其在黃金產業領域的穩健實力，以及在業務拓展過程中所展現出的強大競爭力和可持續增長潛力。進入港股通後，萬國黃金集團能夠顯著擴大股東基數，提升公司在國際資本市場的知名度和影響力，進而吸引更多長期穩定的投資者成為公司股東，為公司發展提供堅實的資金保障。同時，有助於吸引更多專業投資者和交易機構參與其股票交易，從而有效改善公司股票的流動性。此外，這也為公司帶來了大量的主動和被動配置機會，這些新增的資金配置將為公司發展注入強勁動力。良好的市場表現與資金支持，往往會帶來更優的估值待遇。隨著萬國黃金集團在資本市場的知名度提升、股東基數擴大、流動性增強以及資金配置增加，市場對公司的未來發展預期將進一步提高，使公司享受更高的估值溢價。更高的估值不但意味著公司市值的提升，還將增強公司在融資、並購等方面的優勢，為公司實現更大規模的發展和戰略佈局創造有利條件。多重利好加持，讓萬國黃金集團站在了牛市的風口之上。在全球貨幣超發、國際局勢多變以及"去美元化"浪潮下，憑藉稀缺性和長期儲藏性，黃金中長期依舊具備較高的配置價值。通過在黃金產業領域持續深耕，不斷創新發展，相信萬國黃金集團將以"盈利增長"和"估值提升"雙重驅動，為投資者帶來超額回報。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

香港, 2025年4月9日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 中國抗體製藥有限公司（「中國抗體」或「本公司」；股份代號：3681）宣佈，其SM17針對中重度特應性皮炎（AD）的創新療法已完成1b期臨床研究，並獲得突破性頂線數據結果。SM17是一種靶向IL-25（IL-17E）受體通路的新型研究性生物製劑，其獨特機制是通過結合IL-25（一種關鍵警報素）的共受體以阻斷下游信號傳導，從而抑制IL-25觸發的炎症級聯反應。SM17的競爭優勢：- 首個兼具雙重療效達標的AD生物製劑 - 與已上市產品相比，這是首個也是目前唯一一個治療期終點實現NRS-41應答率和EASI-752應答率都超過60%3治療AD的生物製劑。- 較抗IL-4/13藥物起效更快、止癢更深4 - SM17止癢效果最早第2週顯現（已上市藥物通常為4~6週），SM17治療結束時NRS-4應答率超過90%（已上市藥物通常為30~40%）。- 較JAK抑制劑更安全5 - 未報告嚴重不良事件（SAE）或≥3級藥物相關不良事件（TRAE），嚴重感染及主要不良心血管事件（MACE）風險極低。1 NRS-4：瘙癢峰值數值評價指標（PP-NRS）週平均值自基線改善≥4分2 EASI-75：濕疹面積與嚴重程度指數（EASI）改善≥75%3 SM171b期實際應答率，NRS-4:91.7%，EASI-75:75.0%4 度普利尤單抗注射液（達必妥）說明書,SOLO-1 & SOLO-2臨床試驗5 烏帕替尼緩釋片（瑞福）說明書,Measure Up 1 & Measure Up 2臨床試驗本次1b期研究評估了SM17兩種劑量（200mg與600mg）在中重度AD患者中的安全性及療效。結果顯示，SM17耐受性良好，未出現SAE或≥3級TRAE。有效性方面，SM17治療組在瘙癢緩解、皮損修復及患者生活品質等次要終點上全面優於安慰劑組。研究採用16週隨機、雙盲、安慰劑對照設計，納入32例中重度AD成人患者（多數曾對外用皮質激素治療應答不足），也納入了曾接受生物製劑（杜普利尤單抗）或JAK抑制劑（烏帕替尼）治療的患者。至第12週時，高劑量組75.0%（9/12）患者的濕疹面積及嚴重程度指數（EASI）較基線改善≥75%（EASI-75），而安慰劑組應答率為0.0%，兩組應答率差異達75.0%（95%CI：32.00~91.11）。低劑量組50.0%（6/12）患者達到EASI-75標準，較安慰劑組應答率差異為50.0%（95%CI：9.27~74.62）。在高劑量組中，41.7%（5/12）患者第12週時達到研究者整體評估量表（vIGA-AD™）0分（完全清除）或1分（幾乎清除）且較基線改善≥2分（vIGA-AD 0/1），較安慰劑組差異為41.7%（95%CI：2.28~68.05）。低劑量組該項應答率為25.0%（3/12），差異為25.0%（95%CI：-11.22~53.23）。尤為突出的是，高劑量組有91.7%（11/12）的患者于第12週時達到瘙癢峰值數字評分量表（PP-NRS）週平均值較基線改善≥4分（NRS-4），而安慰劑組該項指標無應答患者。即便在低劑量組，也有66.7%（8/12）患者的實現該終點應答，與安慰劑組形成鮮明對比。在起效時間方面，無論高劑量組或低劑量組，SM17均在給藥後第2週時即顯現顯著止癢效果。隨著治療推進，至第12週時，高、低劑量組PP-NRS評分較基線平均降低幅度分別達68%和57%，顯著優於安慰劑組（18%）。兩個治療組的止癢效果持續維持至第16週，即末次給藥（第10週）後6週。皮膚損傷修復改善趨勢和止癢效果類似，兩個治療組第12週EASI評分較基線平均降幅分別為73%（高劑量組）和57%（低劑量組），而安慰劑組平均降幅為42%。此外，本次1b期研究還達成了EASI50和EASI90的12週評估終點，並在SCORAD評分、AD體表面積（BSA）以及患者生活品質問卷（DLQI）等其他皮膚修復指標上均明顯優於安慰劑組。主要療效終點結果匯總如下表所示：終點SM17高劑量（N=12）SM17 低劑量（N=12）安慰劑（N=8）EASI 50（%）第12週83.366.725.0第16週91.758.325.0EASI 75 (%)第12週75.0500.0第16週41.741.70.0EASI 90 (%)第12週41.716.70.0第16週41.741.70.0IGA 0/1 (%)第12週41.725.00.0第16週33.341.70.0NRS-4（%）第12週91.766.70.0第16週75.058.325.0本次研究的安全性研究結果，與SM17在美國1期和中國1a期橋接研究中觀察到的安全性特徵總體一致。在SM17治療組中，最常見的治療引致不良事件（TEAEs，發生率≥10%）為鼻咽炎和尿路感染，治療組合併發生率與安慰劑組發生率的差異小於5%。中國抗體主席、執行董事兼首席執行官梁瑞安博士表示：「SM17有望成為特應性皮炎（AD）領域的全球首創且同類最優療法。該市場單個革命性藥物即可實現數十億美元年收入。對於大多數中重度AD患者而言，瘙癢是最關注的臨床症狀，而由瘙癢引發的搔抓行為很可能是導致AD慢性炎症反復發作的關鍵驅動因素。SM17不僅具備優異的安全性特徵，其皮損清除效果與現有最優療法相當，更在患者最迫切的未滿足臨床需求 - 快速緩解瘙癢方面展現卓越療效。通過填補當前治療方案的這些關鍵空白，SM17有望重新定義這一頑固性疾病的治療標準。我們正加速臨床開發並積極尋求合作，以拓展其全球影響力。下一步我們將啟動中重度AD成人患者的2期試驗。此外，臨床前研究還顯示SM17對哮喘、慢性鼻竇炎伴鼻息肉（CRSwNP）及特發性肺纖維化（IPF）等Th2驅動疾病具有治療潛力，在AD治療以外具備廣闊的首創且最優療法的應用前景。」關於特應性皮炎市場特應性皮炎（AD）是一種慢性炎症性皮膚疾病，其發病機制複雜，涉及遺傳易感性、皮膚屏障功能障礙、免疫系統失調及環境因素等多重作用。該疾病的免疫學特徵以Th2型免疫反應為主導，涉及胸腺基質淋巴細胞生成素（TSLP）、白細胞介素（IL-4、IL-13、IL-5、IL-33、IL-31）、OX40及JAK/STAT信號通路等多種介質。AD通常在嬰兒期發病，約50%患者在1歲前出現症狀，病程呈慢性反復發作特徵。流行病學研究顯示，全球AD患者至少為2.3億人。中國患者規模尤為龐大，超過7000萬人，其中中重度病例佔比約28%。相比之下，美國成人AD患者約1650萬人，中重度病例佔比約40%。根據Precedence Research資料，2023年全球AD藥物市場規模為136.2億美元，預計到2034年將增長至314.4億美元。現有治療手段包括局部用藥（如糖皮質激素[TCS]、鈣調磷酸酶抑制劑[TCI]）、口服抗組胺藥和生物製劑等，其療效各異且各具優缺點。其中外用糖皮質激素（TCS）、外用鈣調磷酸酶抑制劑（TCI）、口服抗組胺藥物等治療仍是目前治療特應性皮炎的常用方法，而度普利尤單抗（Dupilumab）等現有療法已顯著改善患者生活，但其局限性（如起效慢、止癢效果不足、長期使用安全性問題）仍令大量患者需求未被滿足。另一款藥物JAK抑制劑烏帕替尼則存在用藥安全性的問題。2024年，度普利尤單抗全球銷售額突破140億美元，印證AD市場的巨大潛力，也推動藥企加速開發差異化療法。當前，AD賽道競爭焦點主要集中於靶點創新：中國和全球AD臨床在研TOP10靶點中有7個靶點重合，且前2大靶點均為IL-4Rα和JAK1；從臨床分期來看，中國處於3期及以後臨床階段的佔比僅約14%，低於全球的23%（不含2/3期），說明國內仍以Fast-Follow為主；國內靶點集中度更高，TOP3靶點（IL-4Rα、JAK1和PDE4）臨床數量佔比高達46%，相比之下，全球AD臨床靶點分佈更為均衡。關於SM17SM17是全球首創（First-in-Class）的人源化IgG4-κ單克隆抗體，也是首個靶向IL-25受體的同類藥物，具有治療特應性皮炎（AD）、哮喘、特發性肺纖維化及其他免疫疾病的潛力。SM17通過結合2型固有淋巴細胞（ILC2s）和輔助性T細胞（Th2）表面的IL-25受體（又稱IL-17RB），阻斷IL-25誘導的級聯反應，抑制下游Th2細胞因數（如IL-4、IL-9和IL-13）的釋放。IL-25是一種被歸類為「警報素」的關鍵細胞因數，研究證實其與自身免疫性及炎症性皮膚病的發病機制密切相關，尤其在AD中作用顯著。目前獲批的AD療法（包括生物製劑）雖能顯著改善濕疹面積與嚴重程度指數（EASI）及患者生活品質，但仍存在起效緩慢（尤其是止癢效果）或安全性問題。憑藉其創新作用機制，SM17有望成為AD治療的新選擇，甚至更優方案 - 其止癢起效迅速、皮損修復效果顯著且安全性良好，可解決當前療法未滿足的臨床需求。靶向受體（IL-25R）與靶向配體（IL-25）的差異以AD為例，受刺激的皮膚會持續釋放IL-25，而直接中和IL-25的抗體療法無法快速緩解症狀。SM17的獨特之處在於以非競爭性方式阻斷IL-25受體亞基（IL-17RB）。我們的內部資料表明，SM17在不影響IL-25與受體結合的情況下阻斷信號傳導，從而快速抑制由IL-25和IL-25受體相互作用引發的瘙癢和炎症反應。此外，細胞表面受體數量有限。當SM17完全佔據這些受體後，無論IL-25釋放量多少，信號傳導均被終止。這一機制使得SM17能實現快速、持久的抑制效果，且無需高劑量給藥。相比之下，靶向IL-25的抗體需直接中和配體。由於AD患者皮膚持續釋放IL-25，此類療法必須使用高劑量以「清除」新釋放的IL-25，導致瘙癢和炎症緩解延遲。關於中國抗體製藥有限公司中國抗體製藥有限公司聚焦研究、開發、生產及商業化免疫性疾病療法。中國抗體的總部位於香港，研發基地位於香港，生產基地位於中國。公司注重科技研發，其旗艦產品舒西利單抗（Suciraslimab, SM03）為全球首項潛在用以治療類風濕關節炎及其他免疫疾病的抗CD22單抗。舒西利單抗已在中國完成類風濕關節炎3 期臨床試驗，並正待中國國家藥監局批准治療類風濕關節炎的上市銷售批准。此外，本公司還有多個全球首創在研藥物，部分已處於臨床階段，適應症覆蓋類風濕關節炎、乾燥綜合症、系統性紅斑狼瘡、特應性皮炎、特發性肺纖維化、哮喘等具有重大未滿足臨床需求的疾病。新聞垂詢縱橫財經公關顧問有限公司吳慧怡 電話：+852 2864 4831馮靜儀 電話：+852 2114 4939雷遠睿 電話：+852 2114 2881程梓豪 電話：+852 2864 4894電郵：sprg_sinomab@sprg.com.hk Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

聖地亞哥，2025年4月9日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 通用原子航空系統公司（GA-ASI）與韓國的韓華航太公司（Hanwha Aerospace）已達成協議，雙方將在全球國防市場上合作開發和生產無人機系統（UAS）。此次合作是在2024年一項重大飛行展示成功完成後達成的。當時，兩家公司從韓國海軍的兩棲登陸艦「獨島號」（ROKS Dokdo, LPH-6111）上成功發射了一架 GA-ASI MQ-1C「灰鷹」® 短距起降（GE STOL）無人機，該艦正在韓國浦項外海航行中。該展示展示了 GE STOL 能夠安全在多種具備飛行甲板的艦艇上運行的能力，為美軍及其盟友提供了多域作戰的新選項。此次成功也促成了 GA-ASI 與韓華簽署新協議，共同投資並拓展新的無人機業務機會。「我們很高興能與韓華進一步拓展並深化合作關係，」GA-ASI 執行長林登·布魯（Linden Blue）表示，他曾親自監督了2024年11月12日的海上飛行展示。「灰鷹 STOL 的試飛獲得了韓國海軍的積極評價，我們知道韓華已經準備好與 GA-ASI 共同投資，在韓國和美國發展無人機業務。」灰鷹 STOL（短距起降）是同類中唯一具備中空長航時性能、可在具備飛行甲板的戰艦（如兩棲艦和航母）上運行而無需彈射器或阻攔裝置的無人機。它還可從簡易跑道、公路、海灘、停車場等地起降，實現真正的跑道獨立性。韓華航太計劃投資超過3000億韓元（約合2.035億美元），用於 GE STOL 及其無人機引擎的開發與生產設施，擴大研發活動，並在韓國與 GA-ASI 美國工廠同時提供生產基礎設施。這一舉措是在 GA-ASI 過去及持續對 STOL 技術投入的基礎上進一步強化的。韓華還計劃透過招聘專業人才創造就業機會，挖掘國內零組件及材料合作夥伴，促進本土無人機產業生態的發展。GA-ASI 預計該合作將在未來十年內創造近1萬個就業崗位，其中在美國將創造至少500個崗位。韓華航太副董事長金東官表示：「韓華航太將無人系統視為未來國防的戰略支柱。透過與 GA-ASI 的合作，我們希望加強主權防衛能力，擴大韓國在全球無人機系統市場的影響力，並為韓美聯盟的進一步鞏固作出貢獻。」曾被稱為「莫哈維」的灰鷹短距起降無人機（Gray Eagle STOL），在大量採用現役並已成熟投產的「灰鷹25M」機體平台的基礎上，提供了一種性能強大、成本更低、技術風險更小的新型飛機，相較於從零設計的方案更具可行性。灰鷹 STOL 創下了多項航空領域的首次紀錄，包括從「獨島號」艦上起飛、在英國航母「威爾士親王號」（HMS Prince of Wales, 09）上實現發射與回收、在亞利桑那州尤馬試驗場進行實彈測試等。該機型為各國軍隊提供了獨特平台：具備全套功能的中空長航時無人機系統，不僅具備強大戰場任務載荷能力，還能從艦艇、簡易地面或其他高戰備需求的地點進行短距起降。關於韓華航太韓華集團是韓國第七大企業集團，業務涵蓋航空機電、清潔能源與海洋解決方案、金融以及零售和服務等多個領域。韓華航太在航空燃氣渦輪引擎及其零組件、航空器元件、太空系統、飛彈系統、陸軍和海軍武器系統等方面，具有世界領先的設計、開發、組裝與維護能力，並在相關產品領域提供高度專業化的組織級與基地級維修支援服務。 官方網站：www.hanwha.com關於 GA-ASI通用原子航空系統公司（GA-ASI）是通用原子公司的子公司，致力於設計和製造成熟可靠的遠程駕駛航空系統（RPA）、雷達及電光與相關任務系統，包括 Predator® RPA 系列和 Lynx® 多模式雷達。GA-ASI 營運超過800萬飛行小時，提供具備長航時與任務能力的航空平台，並整合感測器與數據鏈系統，以實現持續態勢感知。公司亦研發多種感測器控制與影像分析軟體，提供飛行員訓練及支援服務，並開發超材料天線。更多資訊，請造訪： www.ga-asi.com。Avenger、Gray Eagle、Lynx、Predator、Reaper、SeaGuardian 和 SkyGuardian 均為通用原子航空系統公司在美國及其他國家／地區註冊的商標。聯絡資訊GA-ASI 媒體聯絡asi-mediarelations@ga-asi.com(858) 524-8101來源：General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc.
