• Cuts carbon dioxide emissions from its production by 50%—equivalent to planting 1.3 million trees annually.
• Boosts durability by up to three times for secure information recognition even with long-term use.
• Mass production tailored to global customers starts in November, accelerating customer acquisition.

SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — LG Innotek (CEO Moon Hyuksoo) announced on December 22 that the company has successfully developed a ‘Next-Generation Smart IC (integrated circuit) Substrate’ featuring enhanced performance and reducing carbon emissions generated in its production by half.

The smart IC substrate is an essential component for mounting IC chips that store information on smart cards, such as those in credit cards, electronic passports, and USIMs. When users place a smart card in an ATM or on a passport reader, the IC chip’s information is transmitted to the device via electronic signals.

• Carbon emissions from its production cut by 50%, durability boosted by three times, and secure information recognition enabled
  

This ‘Next-Generation Smart IC Substrate’ is an eco-friendly product that reduces the carbon emissions generated in its production by half. The product will cut annual carbon dioxide emissions by 8,500 tons—equivalent to planting about 1.3 million trees, the company explained.

LG Innotek applied a new material to this product for the first time in the world, achieving high performance without precious metal plating processes.

Existing smart IC substrates require plating with precious metals such as palladium and gold (Au) on their surfaces. This process prevents corrosion where the substrate makes contact with readers and ensures effective electronic signal transmission.

However, the mining of palladium and gold generates massive amounts of greenhouse gases, and the prices of these metals remain high. Thus, the industry has sought new materials or processes to replace them. By eliminating surface plating, LG Innotek’s ‘Next-Generation Smart IC Substrate’ is thus attracting industry attention.

With environmental regulations tightening in Europe, home to major customers, LG Innotek is poised to gain a competitive edge in the global market with this ‘Next-Generation Smart IC Substrate.’

Furthermore, this product’s durability is three times greater than existing products. This minimizes information reading errors caused by wear from frequent external contact and long-term smart card use, delivering both higher performance and enhanced user convenience.

• Mass production for global customers began in November, tailored to customer needs, accelerating customer acquisition

LG Innotek aims to accelerate its global market penetration with this ‘Next-Generation Smart IC Substrate’. In November, the company began mass production to supply leading global smart card manufacturers.

LG Innotek holds 20 domestic patents related to the ‘Next-Generation Smart IC Substrate’ and is pursuing patent registrations in the United States, Europe, and China. The company plans to secure additional global customers through active overseas promotions, leveraging its exclusive technology.

Cho Jitae(Jeffrey Cho), executive vice president and head of LG Innotek’s Package Solution Business, said: “The ‘Next-Generation Smart IC Substrate’ both satisfies customers’ ESG requirements and offers technological competitiveness. We will continue presenting innovative products that create differentiated customer value, making us a partner that realizes our customers’ visions.”

According to market research firm Mordor Intelligence, the global smart card market—currently valued at USD 20.3 billion—is projected to reach USD 30.6 billion by 2030, with an annual growth rate of 8.6%.

In particular, the smart card industry is increasingly adopting dual cards that support both insertion into devices and contactless transactions, boosting demand for replacing existing cards. Additionally, rising credit card issuance in emerging markets such as Africa and India is projected to drive continued growth in the smart card market.

With the upgraded AI Vision, Samsung becomes more fluent in food recognition and expands the reach of kitchen experiences

Company will also showcase a new Bespoke AI Wine Cellar and newly designed cooking appliances

SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced that it will unveil its latest kitchen appliances lineup at CES 2026, including the latest iterations of its Bespoke AI refrigerator, over-the-range (OTR) microwave, and slide-in range^[1] at CES 2026. Alongside refreshed designs across the lineup, the company will highlight meaningful improvements to vision-based AI functionality enhanced with Google Gemini and Google Cloud, showing how these innovations simplify everyday tasks and elevate the overall kitchen experience.

“In pioneering the application of vision-based AI technology, Samsung has led innovation in the kitchen appliance market,” said Jeong Seung Moon, Executive Vice President and Head of R&D Team for Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Samsung will reach a new level of innovation through this collaboration with Google Cloud and will utilize these ongoing initiatives to continue to deliver better consumer experiences in the upcoming year.”

Introducing Samsung’s Latest AI Vision–Equipped Refrigerator

At CES, Samsung will present a new Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub, equipped with the upgraded AI Vision. The feature’s key upgrade is its functions built with Google Gemini, which marks the first time that it is being integrated into a refrigerator.

Previously, it could recognize up to 37 types of fresh food and 50 types of pre-registered processed food on-device.^[2] The latest version ready to be unveiled at CES is built to unlock its existing limitations to recognize more food items, offering a comprehensive and flexible experience.

It is planned to even recognize processed foods without separate registration, automatically registering their names to increase convenience. Additionally, Samsung aims to make it detect user-labeled items, foods stored in personal containers can be added to the food list.

With ingredients being identified more accurately, managing the food list becomes clearer and easier than before, broadening people’s food-related experiences. At CES, Samsung plans to showcase the enhanced capabilities and new use cases of AI Vision, demonstrating the future of a truly personalized AI kitchen.

 

 

Enhanced Wine Management With the New Samsung Bespoke AI Wine Cellar

Samsung will exhibit the new Bespoke AI Wine Cellar, designed to incorporate an AI Vision built with Google Gemini similar to that of the Bespoke AI Refrigerator.^[3]

When users store or remove wine bottles from the wine cellar, a camera positioned at the top of the unit will recognize the labels and tracks bottles, updating the SmartThings AI Wine Manager^[4] accordingly. The system will also be able to distinguish the specific shelf and compartment where each bottle is placed, allowing users to easily check locations without searching manually. Through the AI Wine Manager, users will be able to look up wine information more conveniently and receive suggestions on pairings based on the type of wine in their inventory, making wine curation more intuitive and personalized.

 

 

Unified Kitchen Aesthetic With an Upgraded Stainless Look   

Samsung is also introducing a lineup of French Door refrigerators, slide-in ranges and new OTR microwave models, offering consumers an updated aesthetic and a cohesive stainless-look option for creating a unified kitchen design.

The new Bespoke AI 3-Door French Door refrigerator features a zero clearance fit, which can be installed with side gaps of approximately 4mm.^[5] Additionally, its door depth has been reduced by 50mm compared to the conventional 3-Door model,^[6] enabling full access to drawers and food items with the doors wide open.^[7] The AutoView — a transparent door — allows users to easily check items stored in the fridge.

The upgraded slide-in range features a completely refreshed design with a stainless-look finish across the control panel, knobs and door. It adopts a new bar handle style, along with a Precision Knob that provides enhanced safety.

Samsung will unveil two different types of OTR microwaves: the Air-Fry OTR and the DualVent OTR. The most significant change comes from the revised hood structure of the DualVent model. Typically, the depth of a cooktop on the range extends farther than that of an OTR, making it difficult for the hood to capture smoke from the front burners. Samsung’s new dual vent system addresses this by adding a front ventilation wing in addition to the bottom ventilation, significantly improving the capture rate compared to the previous model.

Visitors at Samsung’s booth at CES 2026 will be the first to see these new innovations. Learn more about Samsung’s CES activities here.

MELBOURNE, Australia and INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Telix Pharmaceuticals Limited (ASX: TLX, NASDAQ: TLX, “Telix”) today provides a precision medicine portfolio update in relation to:

• TLX591-CDx (Illuccix® in approved jurisdictions, ⁶⁸Ga-PSMA-11): Positive data from Phase 3 study in Chinese patients provides the basis for near-term NDA submission in China.
• TLX101-CDx (Pixclara®^[1], ¹⁸F-floretyrosine), PET imaging candidate for glioma: Following collaborative interactions with the FDA, finalizing NDA resubmission and expect to provide a further near-term update on FDA acceptance of the file.
• TLX250-CDx (Zircaix®^[1], ⁸⁹Zr-DFO-girentuximab), PET imaging candidate for ccRCC: Positive Type A meeting held with the FDA to align on remediation of CMC deficiencies identified in the CRL.

Further details on each of these updates is provided below.

Illuccix China Phase 3 Registration Study

Telix is pleased to announce positive top-line results from its Phase 3 registration study of TLX591-CDx (Illuccix®, Kit for the preparation of ⁶⁸Ga-PSMA-11) for prostate cancer imaging in Chinese patients. The Illuccix China^[2] trial met its primary endpoint of patient-level positive predictive value (PPV) for the detection of tumors in patients with biochemical recurrence (BCR) of prostate cancer following prior radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy. The study confirms that the clinical experience of TLX591-CDx PSMA-PET^[3] imaging in Chinese patients is comparable to that observed in patients studied elsewhere.

Illuccix China is a Phase 3 prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicenter study conducted in collaboration with Telix’s strategic commercial partner for the Greater China region, Grand Pharmaceutical Group Limited (Grand Pharma). The study in 140 patients delivered a strong result for the primary endpoint, with an overall patient-level PPV of 94.8% for the detection of tumors with TLX591-CDx (95% confidence interval [CI]: 85.9%, 98.2%), with the lower bound of the 95% CI (85.9%). The region-level PPV was 100.0% in the prostate bed and in the extra-pelvic soft tissue, lymph nodes, and organ metastases (non-bone); 94.7% in the pelvic region outside of the prostate bed, including lymph nodes; and 87.0% in bone metastases.

In the study, patients with suspected BCR were stratified into groups according to their baseline prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels. TLX591-CDx PSMA-PET imaging demonstrated high PPV in all patient groups, including at very low baseline PSA levels.

More than two-thirds (67.2%) of patients experienced a change in their treatment plan as a consequence of TLX591-CDx PSMA-PET imaging compared with the initial plan at baseline. This outcome confirms that PSMA-PET imaging with TLX591-CDx had a meaningful impact on clinical decision-making in Chinese patients, potentially leading to improved treatment strategies for participants with BCR. Final data from the study will be submitted for peer-reviewed publication.

Dr. David N. Cade, Group Chief Medical Officer, Telix, commented, “This is an outstanding result. The primary endpoint of the study was met decisively, with the positive predictive value significantly exceeding the performance threshold agreed with the Chinese regulator. Importantly, the high PPV was consistent even in patients with very low PSA values, and across differing metastatic locations, demonstrating broad clinical applicability. These compelling data will enable Telix and our partner Grand Pharma to submit a New Drug Application for Illuccix in China, a strategically important market.”

In China, more than 134,000 men were diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2022^[4], increasing by approximately 6% each year^[5]. In line with government policy supporting wider geographic access to nuclear medicine, the number of PET/CT cameras installed in China is expected to surpass 1,600 by the end of 2025^[6], compared with 133 in 2010^[7].

FDA Resubmission Update: TLX101-CDx

Telix advises that its New Drug Application (NDA) resubmission for TLX101-CDx, (Pixclara®^[1], ¹⁸F-floretyrosine) to the United States (U.S.) Food and Drug Administration (FDA), is progressing well. The Company has had collaborative interactions with the FDA around providing additional clinical data and a revised statistical analysis plan.

Following a productive Type A meeting to review the basis of the Complete Response Letter (CRL)^[8], Telix is currently finalizing its package for resubmission. The Company will provide a further near-term update when the resubmission has been filed and accepted by the FDA. The approved Expanded Access Program (EAP)^[9] remains active for TLX101-CDx, reflective of Telix’s commitment to serving patients.

FDA Resubmission Update: TLX250-CDx

Telix has recently participated in a Type A meeting to discuss the CRL it received following review of the Biologics License Application (BLA)^[10] for TLX250-CDx (Zircaix®^[1], ⁸⁹Zr-DFO-girentuximab). Telix believes it has reached alignment with the FDA on the remediation of identified deficiencies regarding the product’s chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) package, which formed the substantive basis of the CRL.

The FDA has collaboratively granted Telix an additional meeting in January to review Telix’s plan for the additional data requested to establish comparability between the drug product used in the ZIRCON Phase 3 clinical trial^[11] and the scaled-up manufacturing process intended for commercial use. Telix will provide a further update following receipt of the official FDA meeting minutes of both Type A meetings. The approved Expanded Access Program (EAP)^[12] remains active for TLX250-CDx, reflective of Telix’s commitment to serving patients.
