NanoQT Announces First Closing of $14 Million Series A Funding to Redefine Quantum Computing

PALO ALTO, CA, Sept 25, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Nanofiber Quantum Technologies, Inc. (NanoQT), a quantum computing company pioneering ultra-low-loss nanofiber cavity-QED interconnects for quantum processors, today announced the first closing of its $14 million Series A financing. Phoenix Venture Partners (PVP), an existing investor, led the round with participation from Brevan Howard Macro Venture Fund, a new investor. WASEDA University Ventures, Inc. (WUV), JAFCO Group Co Ltd, Mirai Creation Fund III (SPARX Asset Management Co., Ltd.), and Keio Innovation Initiative, Inc. (KII), each existing investors, also participated.NanoQT’s Proprietary Nanofiber-CavityThe financing follows more than US$20 million in government R&D grants across Japan and the United States that support NanoQT's roadmap. "An interconnect engineered for QPUs is the missing link in today's market and will soon be a major bottleneck to achieving scalable fault-tolerant quantum computing," said Masashi Hirose, Ph.D., CEO and Co-Founder of NanoQT. "Our proprietary nanofiber-cavity interconnect is highly demanded not only for scaling up quantum computing but also for integrating QPUs with quantum communication capabilities.""We are delighted to continue supporting NanoQT's breakthrough," said Nobi Kambe, Ph.D., Managing General Partner at Phoenix Venture Partners (PVP). "NanoQT has demonstrated steady R&D progress, and we believe the company will deliver a disruptive impact in the quantum computing and networking field." "NanoQT is the best positioned in the quantum field to disrupt interconnects."Why It MattersThe quantum interconnect is an emerging, critical device class-essential not only for modularizing quantum processors but also for extending them into networked and communication-enabled systems. NanoQT's approach is an ultra-low-loss nanofiber cavity that functions as an end-to-end fiber-optic interconnect, enabling extremely efficient conversion of qubit signals into photonic signals-a capability fundamentally grounded in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED).NanoQT's initial product is highly engineered for neutral-atom QPUs, which today represent one of the most scalable quantum computing architectures. Yet these systems will face per-unit scalability limits within a few years. NanoQT's interconnect provides a path beyond those limits, while also positioning the company to address the emerging quantum repeater market, which is essential for building long-distance quantum networks.Use of Proceeds and Next MilestonesDemonstration of a distributed quantum computing system using NanoQT's interconnect and standard fiber linksProductization of the nanofiber cavity-QED interconnect for neutral-atom QPUsExpansion of engineering and manufacturing capacity in College Park, Maryland, and TokyoAbout NanoQTNanoQT is a quantum-hardware company building ultra-low-loss nanofiber cavity-QED interconnects that physically integrate with quantum processors to enable modular and networked quantum computing as well as compatibility with quantum communication. Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, with operations in College Park, Maryland and Tokyo, Japan, NanoQT combines Japan-born engineering excellence with a global commercialization strategy.Learn more: www.nano-qt.comContact InformationDai TsukadaHead of Operationsinfo@nano-qt.comSOURCE: Nanofiber Quantum Technologies, Inc.

TruMerit and EnGen Partner to Equip Foreign-Educated Health Professionals With English Skills for Success in Work and Life

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Sept 25, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - TruMerit, a leader in global healthcare workforce development, is partnering with EnGen, a workforce-aligned English language learning solution, to support foreign-educated nurses and other healthcare professionals in building the language skills to succeed in English-speaking work environments and to flourish in their new communities.This new collaboration enables current and past applicants for TruMerit's credential evaluation services to purchase individual access to EnGen's platform and state-of-the-art tools for building English skills. Through targeted, job-specific English training, learners will boost their confidence, enhance their job performance, and prepare for in-demand roles in healthcare systems facing critical staffing shortages.EnGen's innovative approach blends on-demand, AI-powered instruction with human-mediated support, including live online group workshops and coaching. The solution equips working adults with the English skills needed for specific jobs and career paths, including healthcare roles. Stronger English skills not only help them prepare for required language proficiency tests and licensure exams, but also to grow in their careers and thrive in workplace and community life in their new country.With thousands of foreign-educated nurses and allied professionals arriving in the U.S. each year to help fill staffing shortages in health systems, strong communication skills are a vital asset, enabling better collaboration, patient care, and overall outcomes. In addition to verification of their education and licensing in their home countries-services that TruMerit already provides-U.S. immigration law requires proof of English language proficiency to ensure clear communication across the healthcare teams and protect patient safety."Under TruMerit's expanded focus on healthcare career development, we are determined to help migrating nurses and other health professionals thrive at every stage of their careers. In the U.S., this means having the opportunity to take their understanding of the language from proficiency to mastery," said Dr. Peter Preziosi, President and CEO of TruMerit."We are delighted to be able to work with EnGen to address this challenge by making career-aligned English instruction available through the personalized, mobile-first learning experiences the company offers," he said."By equipping foreign-educated healthcare workers with job-specific English skills, we're empowering them to communicate confidently with patients, deliver high-quality care, and succeed in high-stakes environments-while also thriving off the clock in their communities," said Dr. Katie Brown, EnGen's Founder and Chief Education Officer. "EnGen's approach drives real-world results: 94% of our learners feel more confident using English at work, 93% save time on the job, and 92% have improved their job skills. Another 80% said they can navigate life better. We're proud to partner with TruMerit to help build a stronger, future-ready healthcare workforce."In addition to the healthcare-focused English instruction, EnGen also offers content aimed at helping learners navigate their new life in an English-speaking country, covering topics like social integration, legal, financial, and digital literacy, as well as U.S. citizenship test preparation.Additionally, to help accompanying spouses and other family members adjust, the offers available through TruMerit include special pricing on a family option, under which courses offered by EnGen can be accessed by family members aged 14 and above.About TruMeritTruMerit is a worldwide leader in healthcare workforce development. Formerly known as CGFNS International, the organization has a nearly 50-year history supporting the career mobility of nurses and other healthcare workers-and those who license and hire them-by validating their education, skills, and experience as they seek authorization to practice in the United States and other countries. As TruMerit, this mission has been expanded to building workforce capacity that meets the needs of people in a rapidly evolving global health landscape. Through its Global Health Workforce Development Institute, the organization is advancing evidence-based research, thought leadership, and advocacy in support of healthcare workforce development solutions, including globally recognized practice standards and certifications that will enhance career pathways for healthcare workers.About EnGenEnGen offers an at-scale, AI-powered approach to English instruction, designed to solve a systemic access issue: Adult English learners now represent 1 in 10 working-age adults in the U.S., yet the workforce system serves the needs of just 2% of these workers. A Certified B Corporation, EnGen is filling the gap by partnering with employers, adult educators, workforce development organizations, and state governments to connect job seekers and incumbent workers with English skills, career pathways, and employment in high-demand industries. EnGen's workforce-aligned approach addresses employers' recruitment and retention challenges and advances learners' economic mobility.

WORK Medical enters strategic partnerships in bid to explore RWA initiatives ACN Newswire

WORK Medical enters strategic partnerships in bid to explore RWA initiatives

Key Takeaways:WORK Medical has formed a new alliance with the Hong Kong Web3.0 Standardization Association and was appointed as the organization’s “council vice chairman.”The company has also entered into a collaboration with Ruijin Hospital’s Wuxi Branch to accelerate the development of a next-generation, AI-driven smart clinical ecosystemHONG KONG, Sep 24, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Hong Kong kicked off a new era in its embrace of virtual assets on Aug. 1 with the official launch of a regulatory and licensing framework for virtual currencies known as stablecoins. A steady stream of Chinese companies has begun experimenting in the city with virtual assets and their underlying blockchain technology since then, covering a wide range of industries.Medical products seller WORK Medical Technology Group Ltd. (WOK.US) became the latest to join that parade, as it unveiled a major new initiative to explore real world asset (RWA) tokenization and related blockchain technology in a partnership with the Hong Kong Web3.0 Standardization Association, which promotes the high-quality development of the global Web3.0 industry through standardization research and efforts.The deal comes just over a year after WORK Medical listed on the Nasdaq, and is part of the company’s evolving “Healthcare + Payment + Technology = RWA + Web3 + AI” strategy. WORK Medical also plans to strategically collaborate with one or more qualified firms from the financial sector, which would provide a key compliance channel for its asset tokenization ambitions.Tokenized RWA, or real-world assets with value that have been digitalized, is projected to surge to over $50 billion by the end of this year, according to a report published in May by digital currency market-making firm Keyrock and tokenization platform Centrifuge. The report also pointed out that tokenized RWA will be dominated by U.S. treasuries, whose value alone will push the sector size to over $28 billion. Three areas for collaborationWORK Medical laid out three main areas for collaboration with its new Hong Kong partner. The first area involves the tokenization of “high-quality assets owned or invested in by WORK Medical,” the company said. It pointed out it can leverage both its status as a Nasdaq-listed company, as well as its expertise and assets related to its medical device business, including AI healthcare assets. It wasn’t more specific, but assets it could probably tokenize might include its receivables, investment products and intellectual property.The second area WORK Medical’s new partnership will explore is equity investments, which could include co-investments or participation in funds and other financial vehicles to accelerate its move into RWA for potential tokenization and achieve shared strategic goals.The third area involves development of RWA technology, which would leverage the Hong Kong Web30 Association’s recently launched RWA registration platform. That platform facilitates collaboration on a range of related functions, including blockchain-based title verification, asset issuance, and cross-chain transactions, while ensuring regulatory compliance and asset security.The company’s recent activities indicate it is already accumulating the expertise to develop and manage such assets. In February, it announced a partnership with another medical device company that included the potential establishment of “joint investment funds to align industrial and financial resources.” It said that partnership could also involve investment in healthcare infrastructure, development of advanced technologies and global acquisitions.WORK Medical’s new partnership puts it at the head of a nascent but rapidly growing wave of Chinese companies looking for new business opportunities in the fast-emerging business of digitalized RWAs. Any company owning or possessing rights to RWAs, both their own and assets owned by others, can technically enter the space.Building smart clinical ecosystemOn Monday, WORK Medical also announced another new partnership with the Wuxi Branch of the Ruijin Hospital-Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Under the partnership, WORK Medical will support Xin Rui Hospital’s efforts to advance hospital informatization. It will also assist in efforts to integrate AI with the hospital’s multimodal medical data, such as text, imaging, and lab results.https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2025/09/22/3153945/0/en/WORK-Medical-Technology-Group-LTD-Partners-with-Wuxi-Branch-of-Ruijin-Hospital-Shanghai-Jiao-Tong-University-School-of-Medicine-to-Develop-AI-Applications-in-Healthcare.htmlThe two sides plan to enhance WORK Medical’s multimodal AI solutions from single-image to complex data types by leveraging Xin Rui Hospital’s clinical and expert resources. The collaboration aims to develop AI models for diverse healthcare scenarios, establishing a framework for data governance, model training, and clinical translation. WORK Medical Chairman and CEO Wu Shuang said the two new partnerships – with the Hong Kong Web3.0 Standardization Association for RWA innovation and with Xin Rui Hospital for AI-driven healthcare – are strategic moves aimed at unlocking new growth avenues and building long-term value.The company’s inaugural annual earnings report for its fiscal year through September 2024, issued earlier this year, also contains hints that it was dabbling in financial markets, not only through its IPO but also through other investing activities, in the year before its listing.https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/work-medical-technology-group-ltd-reports-financial-results-for-fiscal-year-2024-302377075.htmlWORK Medical’s new alliance could take it in a completely new direction from its core business of producing and selling masks and other medical products like artery compression tourniquets. As the Covid pandemic receded and demand for masks declined, leading to falling prices, the company’s revenue from its mask business fell 69% in its fiscal year through September 2024 to $1.6 million from $5.1 million the previous year. That was partly offset by an 18% increase in its revenue for other medical devices, which rose to $9.4 million from $8 million.Its latest financial report also shows that WORK Medical has engaged in commodities trading, which generated $400,000 in income in its latest fiscal year through September 2024. The company also derived a sizable $15.7 million in cash from financing activities for the fiscal year, up sharply from a year earlier and greater than the $11.5 million in revenue it generated from sales of its core medical products for the year.In the finance sector, supply chain financier Linklogis late last month also formed a partnership with XRP Ledger, the organization overseeing the ripple cryptocurrency, aimed at exploring the digitalization and tokenization of RWA.Source: The Bamboo WorksBy Doug Young Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

香港,2025年9月24日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 近年來,地緣政治不確定性加劇、全球貨幣寬鬆週期頻發,黃金的避險屬性與金融屬性愈發凸顯,成為全球央行與投資者的重要配置資產。2025年以來,國際金價持續上揚,不斷刷新歷史高位,截至9月18日,國際現貨黃金價格累計漲約40%。在地緣政治、經濟衝突、貨幣體系動盪等結構性因素未根本改變,疊加央行購金、投資需求等支撐,黃金資產中長期配置價值持續凸顯,黃金開採企業將從中受益。 紫金黃金國際有限公司(「紫金黃金國際」,股份代號:2259.HK)作為紫金礦業海外黃金資產整合平台,承接了紫金礦業(601899.SH,02899.HK)在中國境外的全部8座黃金礦山,業務覆蓋中亞、南美洲、大洋洲及非洲等黃金資源富集區,有望憑藉獨特優勢承接行業紅利。9月19日,紫金黃金國際啟動港股招股,招股價每股71.59港元,按每手100股計,入場費7,231.19港元,摩根士丹利及中信證券為聯席保薦人。收併購能力驅動快速擴張,打造全球市場領先地位過去近20年,紫金黃金國際聚焦高潛力黃金礦山及價值被低估的低品位、難選冶黃金礦山,在南美洲、大洋洲、中亞和非洲等黃金資源富集區完成多起關鍵收購,迅速搭建起多元化黃金礦山資產組合。這一擴張路徑的成功,離不開其卓越的併購能力與紫金礦業的深度協同支撐。依託紫金礦業全球領先的礦業公司地位,借助其豐富的大型金屬礦山勘查建設運營經驗並輔以自身專業高效的資源併購和勘查能力,紫金黃金國際能夠準確識別並收購全球範圍內的潛在高價值資產,並在收購完成後以具成本效益方式,積極利用強大的內部能力進行自主地質勘查和開發,從而在不斷變化的黃金行業中穩步擴大資源和產量,同時保持低成本和高效率。在併購成本控制上,2019-2024年,紫金黃金國際按黃金資源計的平均收購成本僅約為每盎司61.3美元,較同期每盎司92.9美元的行業平均水平低34%。而在併購後整合環節,公司「識別價值-提升價值」的能力尤為突出,蘇里南羅斯貝爾金礦、塔吉克斯坦吉勞╱塔羅金礦和圭亞那奧羅拉金礦等多個收購前虧損的礦山,在收購後1-2年內即實現扭虧為盈,充分驗證了其整合效率與運營實力。憑藉高效的併購擴張與精益運營,紫金黃金國際的全球市場地位持續提升。截至2024年底,公司黃金儲量達27.5百萬盎司(856.0 噸),位列全球第九;2024 年黃金產量達1.3百萬盎司(40.4噸),排名全球第十一位。2022-2024年,公司黃金產量複合年增長率高達21.4%,在全球大型公司中增速領先,成為行業內名副其實的「增長先鋒」。技術與成本優勢構築競爭壁壘 賦能長期盈利增長在黃金開採行業資源品位下降、開採成本上升的趨勢下,技術實力與成本控制能力成為企業核心競爭力的關鍵。紫金黃金國際憑藉與紫金礦業的技術協同、自主創新的工藝突破,以及精細化的成本管理,構築起堅實的競爭壁壘,為長期盈利增長提供強勁支撐。技術層面,紫金黃金國際承襲紫金礦業低品位、難選冶資源開發技術,並廣泛利用熱壓預氧化和生物浸出等專有技術,有效開發利用低品位難處理礦石,顯著提升了礦山經濟價值。以塔羅金礦為例,該礦礦石含銅、銀、砷、碳、硫等多種元素,且金的嵌佈粒度微細,開發難度極大,公司針對性開發了含砷含碳金精礦及銅精礦POX工藝技術,解決了金礦難選冶的問題,使其黃金回收率在2022年至2024年由78%提升至81%,2023年建成的精煉廠應用紫金礦業技術後,塔吉克斯坦吉勞╱塔羅金礦產生額外利潤約5700萬美元。在勘探環節,紫金黃金國際利用控股股東紫金礦業的先進地質勘查技術和自主研發設備,通過整合該等尖端技術和設備,以較低成本實現顯著增儲。2019年至2025年上半年,公司於此期間運營的礦山的黃金資源量平均勘探成本低至11.7美元╱盎司,遠低於同期行業平均的32.3美元╱盎司,持續夯實資源基礎。成本控制方面,紫金黃金國際採用紫金礦業獨創的「礦石流五環歸一」礦山項目管理程式,統籌勘查、採礦、選礦、冶煉和環境保護五大環節,有效降低建設生產成本,實現項目經濟社會效益最大化。2024年,公司全維持成本(AISC)為每盎司1,458美元,在全球前十五大黃金開採公司中排名第六低;2022至2024年及2025年上半年,公司運營的七個礦山中,每噸礦石開採成本分別為38.7美元、31.3美元、34.3美元及32.7美元,每噸磨礦選礦成本分別為20.6美元、18.2美元、19.4美元及17.2美元,低成本優勢顯著。成本優勢直接推動盈利水平提升。2022-2024年,紫金黃金國際歸母淨利潤分別為183.7百萬美元、230.4百萬美元及481.4百萬美元,複合年增長率達61.9%,增長勢頭強勁。2024年股本回報率(ROE)達21.4%,保持較高的資本回報,「技術降本 - 盈利提升」 的良性循環已經形成。在黃金資產稀缺性加劇、行業集中度提升的趨勢下,紫金黃金國際憑藉低溢價併購的擴張能力,技術驅動的成本優勢、以及與紫金礦業的深度協同,已成長為全球黃金開採行業的增長黑馬,展現出強勁的發展韌性與投資價值。當前公司正在港股招股,作為連接全球資本與優質黃金資產的重要標的,有望為市場提供兼具成長潛力與收益穩定性的投資選擇。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

康哲藥業就用於破傷風被動免疫和狂犬病被動免疫的兩款創新生物製劑達成合作 ACN Newswire

康哲藥業就用於破傷風被動免疫和狂犬病被動免疫的兩款創新生物製劑達成合作

深圳,2025年9月23日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 康哲藥業控股有限公司(「康哲藥業」)欣然宣佈,於2025年9月22日,通過其附屬公司與重慶智翔金泰生物製藥股份有限公司(「智翔金泰」)就兩款1類治療用生物製品分別簽訂獨家合作協議(「協議」),分別為用於破傷風的被動免疫適應症的唯康度塔單抗(GR2001)注射液(「唯康度塔單抗注射液」)以及用於疑似狂犬病病毒暴露後的被動免疫適應症的斯樂韋米單抗(GR1801)注射液(「斯樂韋米單抗注射液」)。根據協議,康哲藥業獲得上述兩款產品在中國大陸的獨家商業化權與除中國大陸之外的亞太地區及中東、北非的獨家許可權,合作期限至兩款產品分別在中國大陸地區獲批上市後十年(各产品的初始期限),各产品的初始期限到期後除非發生協議約定的終止或解除情形,則協議每十年自動延期。唯康度塔單抗注射液是一款安全性佳,且優效於破傷風人免疫球蛋白(HTIG),可為患者提供快速且持久保護的被動免疫製劑。唯康度塔單抗注射液用於破傷風的被動免疫適應症的Ⅲ期臨床試驗達到了主要療效終點。2024年5月,唯康度塔單抗注射液被國家藥品監督管理局(NMPA)藥品審評中心(CDE)納入突破性治療品種名單,其新藥上市申請(NDA)已於2025年5月22日獲得CDE受理。斯樂韋米單抗注射液是全球首款針對狂犬病毒糖蛋白表位Ⅰ和/或III的重組全人源抗狂犬病病毒(Rabies Virus,RABV)雙特異性抗體,符合世界衛生組織(WHO)建議開發的針對不同抗原位點的"雞尾酒式"療法,可大規模標準化穩定生產,並且中和譜廣、免疫原性低、對疫苗主動免疫干擾小、成本可控。2025年1月14日, 其用於成人疑似狂犬病病毒暴露後的被動免疫適應症的NDA獲CDE受理;此外,其針對2歲至18歲以下兒童和青少年疑似狂犬病病毒暴露後的被動免疫適應症的臨床試驗申請已於2025年7月獲得NMPA批准,目前正在進行III期臨床試驗。康哲藥業始終致力於佈局具有臨床價值及差異化優勢的創新產品。破傷風和狂犬病的被動免疫市場廣闊,現有被動免疫製劑在安全性及可及性上存在一定局限性。期待唯康度塔單抗注射液和斯樂韋米單抗注射液的獲批上市,有望為破傷風及狂犬病暴露後患者帶來新的被動免疫防治選擇,並可與康哲藥業在售產品在專家網路與市場資源方面協同,早日惠及廣大患者。關於唯康度塔單抗注射液及破傷風的更多信息唯康度塔單抗注射液是一款由智翔金泰自主研發的重組人源化抗破傷風毒素(Tetanus Neurotoxin, TeNT)的單克隆抗體,作用靶點為TeNT的重鏈C端(TeNT-Hc)。TeNT是一條約150kDa的單鏈蛋白,經過翻譯後修飾,形成由重鏈和輕鏈組成的活性毒素。唯康度塔單抗注射液能特異性結合TeNT-Hc,阻斷其進入神經元細胞,起到被動免疫作用。唯康度塔單抗注射液在中國已取得授權專利。破傷風是由破傷風梭狀芽孢桿菌通過傷口侵入人體引起的急性特異性感染,可發生于任何年齡段,在無醫療干預的情況下,尤其是老年人和嬰幼兒,病死率接近100%。即使經過積極的綜合治療,該病的死亡率在全球範圍仍高達30%至50% [1]。據估計,全球每年約有50萬至100萬例破傷風病例[1]。破傷風梭狀芽孢桿菌廣泛分佈於土壤及環境中,並存在於哺乳動物的腸道中,通過破損的皮膚黏膜侵入人體,引起急性特異性感染,因此破傷風重在預防。目前臨床常用的被動免疫藥物(俗稱"破傷風針"),包括破傷風毒素(TAT)、馬破傷風免疫球蛋白(F(ab’) 2)、破傷風人免疫球蛋白(HTIG),但在安全性和可及性方面存在顯著短板[2],主要體現在易引起過敏,傳播傳染性病原風險,來源有限等問題,臨床亟須新的防治藥物。唯康度塔單抗注射液可提供優效於HTIG的保護力,展現出優異的安全性和耐受性,免疫原性低,且具備更強的可控性和可及性,有望為患者提供更佳的防治選擇。關於斯樂韋米單抗注射液及狂犬病的更多信息斯樂韋米單抗注射液是一款由智翔金泰自主研發的重組全人源抗狂犬病病毒雙特異性抗體,作用靶點為RABV的包膜糖蛋白(Glycoprotein,G蛋白),通過靶向結合G蛋白表位I和/或III,阻斷其與受體的結合,在狂犬疫苗主動免疫完全發揮保護作用前阻滯病毒對神經的侵染,預防狂犬病。斯樂韋米單抗注射液的分子設計滿足WHO關於抗狂犬病病毒抗體開發的建議——採用針對不同抗原位點的多株單抗組合成"雞尾酒式"組合製劑,以保證對不同病毒株或病毒的不同基因型的有效性。斯樂韋米單抗注射液在中國已取得授權專利。斯樂韋米單抗注射液用於成人疑似狂犬病毒暴露後的被動免疫適應症的III期臨床試驗達到了主要療效終點,研究顯示斯樂韋米單抗注射液與目前我國主要被動免疫製劑狂犬病人免疫球蛋白(HRIG)具有非劣的保護力,在狂犬病毒暴露的早期提供即時保護,且不會對疫苗發揮主動免疫產生不利影響。狂犬病是由RABV感染引起的一種急性人畜共患病,臨床大多表現為特異性恐風、恐水、咽肌痙攣、進行性癱瘓等[3],病死率幾乎為100%,是世界上最致命的疾病之一。目前對已經出現疾病症狀的狂犬病沒有公認有效的治療方法,規範的暴露後預防(Post-Exposure Prophylaxis,PEP)處置是預防狂犬病的最有效策略[4]。PEP包括傷口處置、疫苗接種、按需注射被動免疫製劑。疫苗誘導產生抗體需要1-2周的時間,在第一針疫苗注射後至機體產生足量抗體(≥0.5IU/ml)之前,被動免疫製劑可為該高風險時段提供即時保護[3]。根據《狂犬病暴露預防處置工作規範(2023年版)》,狂犬病III級暴露後以及嚴重免疫功能缺陷的II級暴露病例應當在第1劑疫苗免疫同時給予被動免疫治療[5]。我國全年狂犬病毒暴露人口數逾4,000萬,其中40%為III級暴露,共1,600萬人[3]。但出於患者認知、價格、可及性等原因,III級暴露者中,僅15%左右接受被動免疫製劑注射[3]。我國被批准上市的被動免疫藥物有狂犬病人免疫球蛋白(HRIG)或馬源抗狂犬病血清(Equine Rabies Antiserum,ERA),以阻止病毒進入神經組織從而獲得快速保護作用。HRIG需要不斷從加強免疫的健康人群中獲得,來源相對困難,價格昂貴,存在血源感染的潛在風險(如愛滋病,乙肝,丙肝等);ERA屬於異源蛋白,易導致不良反應(如血清病,過敏性休克等)[3]。除HRIG和ERA外,國內僅有兩款抗狂犬病病毒抗體藥物獲批上市。斯樂韋米單抗注射液是全球首款用於狂犬病被動免疫的重組全人源雙特異性抗體,符合WHO推薦的"雞尾酒式"療法,其上市有望給患者提供多方位保護。關於智翔金泰智翔金泰(股票代碼:688443)成立於2015年,是一家以臨床重大需求為導向,以抗體藥物發現技術為驅動的創新型生物製藥企業。公司聚焦自身免疫性疾病、感染性疾病和腫瘤三大治療領域,持續開發單克隆抗體藥物及雙特異性抗體藥物,擁有從抗體藥物分子發現、工藝開發與質量研究、臨床研究到大規模商業化的抗體藥物全產業鏈佈局。有關智翔金泰及其產品的更多資訊,請訪問其官方網站:https://www.genrixbio.com/。關於康哲藥業康哲藥業是一家鏈接醫藥創新與商業化,把控產品全生命週期管理的開放式平台型企業,致力於提供有競爭力的產品和服務,滿足尚未滿足的醫療需求。康哲藥業專注於全球首創(FIC)及同類最優(BIC)的創新產品,並高效推進創新產品臨床研究開發和商業化進程,賦能科研成果向診療實踐的持續轉化,造福患者。康哲藥業聚焦專科領域,擁有被驗證的商業化能力,廣泛的渠道覆蓋和多疾病領域專家資源,核心在售產品已獲領先的學術與市場地位。康哲藥業圍繞優勢專科領域不斷縱深發展,以鞏固心腦血管/消化/眼科/皮膚健康業務競爭力,其中皮膚健康業務已成為該細分領域的龍頭企業,帶來專科規模效率。同時,康哲藥業持續深化東南亞及中東區域業務發展,助力高質量持續健康發展。參考文獻/資料1.中國創傷救治聯盟,北京大學創傷醫學中心. 中國破傷風免疫預防專家共識[J].中華外科雜誌,2018,56(3):161-167.DOI: 10.3760/cma.j.issn.0529-5815.2018.03.0012.中國醫師協會急診醫師分會, 中國人民解放軍急救醫學專業委員會, 北京急診醫學學會, 等. 成人破傷風急診預防及診療專家共識[J]. 臨床急診雜誌, 2018, 19(12): 801-811.
