BEIJING, Nov. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On November 28, 2025, Juventas Cell Therapy Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Juventas”) announced that its independently developed CAR-T cell therapy product, Inaticabtagene Autoleucel (Ina-cel) (tradename: YORWIDATM), has received new drug marketing approval from the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). This approval is for the treatment of relapsed or refractory Large B-Cell Lymphoma (r/r LBCL) after two or more lines of systemic therapy. This is the second approved indication in China for Ina-cel, following its initial approval in November 2023 for the treatment of adult relapsed or refractory B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (r/r B-ALL). This milestone marks the first proprietary CD19 CAR-T product in China with full intellectual property rights to become the only CAR-T cell therapy product in the country that covers both leukemia and lymphoma, the two major hematological oncology indications.
Clinical Value Upgrade: Starting a New Chapter in Large B-Cell Lymphoma Treatment
Lymphoma is one of the most common malignant tumors of the hematological system. Large B-Cell Lymphoma (LBCL) is the most frequent type of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (NHL) in adults. Approximately 40% of patients progress or relapse after first-line treatment, and these patients face poor prognosis and significant challenges in clinical treatment. The approval of the new lymphoma indication for Ina-cel brings accessible curative hope to LBCL patients.
Ina-cel (YORWIDATM) is China’s independently developed CD19-targeted CAR-T cell therapy product. It features a globally unique CD19 scFv (HI19a) structure and internationally leading manufacturing processes. As the first CD19 CAR-T cell therapy product in China with full intellectual property rights, the sequential approval of its two indications provides a new therapeutic option for more patients with hematological malignancies. This landmark achievement not only strongly validates its clinical value, further solidifies its leading position in China’s CAR-T treatment field, but also showcases China’s original innovation strength and the high-quality development standard of its cell therapy industry.
The approval of this new indication is based on the positive results of a single-arm, open-label, multi-center pivotal Phase II clinical study (NCT04586478) for the treatment of r/r LBCL. The study was jointly led by the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (IHCAMS) and Ruijin Hospital, affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University. It was conducted at more than ten clinical centers across the country, with key clinical study data demonstrating durable remission and long-term survival benefit for lymphoma patients treated with Ina-cel, alongside excellent safety.
Professor Dehui Zou, Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (IHCAMS):
“Congratulations on the new drug marketing approval of Inaticabtagene Autoleucel (Ina-cel) for the treatment of relapsed or refractory Large B-Cell Lymphoma, providing a new breakthrough treatment option for patients. Once LBCL patients relapse or become refractory, conventional treatments have limited efficacy and the prognosis is extremely poor. In the pivotal registration clinical study, Ina-cel demonstrated excellent efficacy, durable remission, and long-term survival benefit. While achieving excellent efficacy, Ina-cel also demonstrated superior safety, with no cases of ≥ Grade 3 Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and only 1 patient experiencing ≥ Grade 3 Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS). We look forward to Ina-cel being approved for marketing and further accumulating real-world evidence to promote earlier lines of treatment and exploration of combination strategies, allowing more Large B-Cell Lymphoma patients to benefit“.
Professor Weili Zhao, Ruijin Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine:
“The new drug marketing approval of Inaticabtagene Autoleucel (Ina-cel) for the treatment of Large B-Cell Lymphoma is another major milestone for China’s independently developed CAR-T cell therapy products, and a typical representative of independent innovation in China’s cell drug industry. With its unique CD19 scFv structure, advanced manufacturing process technology, strict quality control system, and outstanding clinical data demonstrated in multiple clinical studies, Ina-cel will become a high-quality, effective treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory Large B-Cell Lymphoma. We look forward to the real-world performance of Ina-cel for Large B-Cell Lymphoma, and we anticipate Ina-cel moving from China to the world, expecting more ‘China Contribution’ to cell therapy innovation”.
Professor Lugui Qiu, Clinical Chief Expert, Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (IHCAMS):
“Inaticabtagene Autoleucel (Ina-cel) liberates patients from prolonged hospitalization. As a Chinese original CAR-T with solid efficacy and safety, the innovation of Ina-cel combined with Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT) can allow patients to achieve better efficacy, with the best Overall Response Rate (ORR) up to 92% and the best Complete Response (CR) rate up to 72%. At 3 and 6 months post-infusion of Ina-cel, 80% and 72% of patients, respectively, continued to achieve sustained remission, and at 24 months, 64.9% of patients still achieved durable remission. This allows more patients to return to their lives and accompany their families, representing a dual breakthrough in medical technology and humanistic care—making anti-cancer treatment warmer and more dignified!”.
Professor Jianxiang Wang, Clinical Chief Expert and Director of the National Clinical Research Center for Hematologic Diseases, Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (IHCAMS):
“Inaticabtagene Autoleucel (Ina-cel) is China’s self-developed, original CD19 CAR-T product, which has demonstrated excellent efficacy and safety in hematologic oncological diseases including adult Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Large B-Cell Lymphoma, and pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, as well as multiple types of autoimmune diseases including Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Hemolytic Anemia. It has accumulated treatment for over 500 patients, and the corresponding clinical study data have been continuously published in international academic journals and conferences, receiving widespread attention. After the first indication for adult Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia was approved for marketing in November 2023, the real-world efficacy rate reached 92.8%. It has been included in domestic authoritative clinical guidelines and is gradually becoming a standard treatment option. Congratulations on the marketing approval of Ina-cel for the Large B-Cell Lymphoma indication this time, and we look forward to the subsequent marketing approvals for the pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and autoimmune disease indications, benefiting more patients“.
Dr. Lulu Lyu, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Juventas:
“The new drug marketing approval of Inaticabtagene Autoleucel (Ina-cel) for the treatment of lymphoma is another major achievement for Juventas in adhering to innovation and focusing on clinical needs. Ina-cel also becomes the only marketed CAR-T product in China that simultaneously covers the dual indications of leukemia and lymphoma. Ina-cel is China’s self-developed, original CD19 CAR-T product. Next, the company will accelerate the research, development, and marketing process for Ina-cel for the treatment of pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and multiple types of autoimmune diseases. We will actively promote its inclusion in the China’s Innovative Drug List for Medical Insurance, continuously improve drug accessibility, and simultaneously promote the global registration of Ina-cel, allowing more patients in China and globally to benefit from China-manufactured CAR-T cell innovative drugs“.

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 28 November 2025 – Kallang Alive Sport Management, the company that manages the Singapore Sports Hub, today announced it has officially changed its corporate name to The Kallang Group and Singapore Sports Hub will begin operating under a new name, The Kallang.
The Kallang is a vibrant precinct that encompasses all current infrastructure and assets that was previously known as the Singapore Sports Hub. It is not just a venue for events, but also a destination where memorable moments are made. The Kallang Group is the corporate entity that will continue to oversee the management, programming and delivery of world-class experiences at The Kallang, driving the next chapter of growth for the precinct.
Keith Magnus, Chairman, The Kallang Group, and Quek Swee Kuan, Chief Executive Officer, The Kallang Group, unveiled the new brand name at a launch event held at the Bank of Singapore (BOS) Lounge at the National Stadium. Joining them to celebrate the occasion were The Kallang Group staff and more than 300 stakeholders and partners representing The Kallang’s four pillars – sport, entertainment, lifestyle and community.
Growth since 2022 takeover
Since the 2022 government takeover, The Kallang has gone from strength to strength, delivering more sport, entertainment and lifestyle event days, and significantly increased event attendance. The energy continued into 2025, with The Kallang hosting world-class sporting events such as the World Aquatics Championships and the World Para Swimming Championships.

“The Kallang is not just a world-class venue. It is a feeling, a connection, a shared memory. This brand launch reflects our commitment to build a precinct that belongs to all Singaporeans – and to ensure The Kallang becomes one of the most exciting and loved destinations in the region for generations to come.”
Why “The Kallang”
In Singapore, “Kallang” represents more than a name or location. It is a powerful yet emotional symbol of national pride. Rooted in Singapore’s collective consciousness, “Kallang” has always represented a space where people unite through competitions, celebrations and shared experiences like the National Day Parade.
“Kallang” has been home to both the previous and current National Stadium, hosting countless memorable moments that united the nation. It is where the legendary “Kallang Roar” and “Kallang Wave” emerged as fans rallied behind Team Singapore, transforming individual voices into a powerful chorus of national pride.
This rich sporting legacy forms the foundation upon which The Kallang now builds. The transition from Singapore Sports Hub to The Kallangrepresents our evolution – where we broaden our identity while honouring our sporting heritage. It embraces our collective memories while strengthening our belief that sport, entertainment, lifestyle and community form the pillars of a dynamic ecosystem.
Commitment to delivering world-class experiences
The Kallang will continue to serve its purpose as a vibrant, multi-use destination that brings people together through world-class sport, entertainment, lifestyle and community experiences, contributing to the broader vision of bringing the wider Kallang Alive precinct to life.
The Kallang’s new tagline, “Feel Alive”, captures its inventive spirit of creating exciting experiences for all across sport, entertainment, lifestyle and community.
This tagline is anchored on the four brand values of:
Connection: The Kallang will continue to build meaningful networks in the community, aided by how it designs space, creates events and fosters a sense of belonging between people and destination.
Vibrancy: The Kallang is a place built for people, ideas and memories. The energy is woven into the fabric of the destination: where people train, play, perform and gather.
Excellence: The Kallang plans every moment with care and operates with precision to ensure a stellar experience for all.
Leadership: The Kallang continues to bring in firsts and build its momentum with world-class partners as the excitement epicentre of Singapore.
Yip Pin Xiu, Singapore’s most decorated Paralympian said “For Team Singapore athletes, The Kallang has always been a training ground and stage for world-class excellence. This refreshed identity will continue to inspire the nation and provide a home for iconic sporting moments like the World Aquatics Championships and World Para Swimming Championships.”
“The best venues don’t simply stage events — they create powerful connections between athletes and their fans,” said Charles Hsiung, President of APG and Women’s Tennis Association Tournament Board Representative for the APAC region. “The Kallang’s strength lies in its efficiency, multifunctional capability, and clear delivery of the organisation’s values and mission. It is a dynamic platform for Singapore to elevate the live event experience, inspire athletes to perform their best, deliver memorable moments that resonate deeply with fans across the world, and strengthen the region’s role in the global sport landscape.”
Ensuring diverse programmes for everyone and bringing spaces and experiences to life
The Kallang Group is committed to engaging different communities through our diverse programmes, and bringing spaces and experiences in the precinct to life.
Countdown 2026 at The Kallang, an annual signature countdown event and The Kallang Group’s first event under the new corporate name, brings communities together to usher in the new year as one.

HANGZHOU, China, Nov. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, a technological shift is reshaping the industry. At the forefront is Coohom a product of Manycore Tech, a cloud-based AI design platform known for its speed, simplicity, and powerful collaborative tools. Designers worldwide—from award-winning veterans to emerging entrepreneurs—are using Coohom to optimize workflows, secure client projects, and expand creative possibilities.
The platform’s impact is reflected in the experiences of three international designers: an established Italian veteran, a rising talent in Dubai, and an innovative entrepreneur in Pakistan. Their stories underscore a consistent theme: Coohom excels in fast rendering, ease of use, and seamless collaboration.
Gaetano La Vigna: Enhancing Legacy with Cloud Collaboration Gaetano La Vigna, an award-winning designer with over 30 years of experience working with brands such as Harrods and IKEA, found that traditional design methods limited his ability to collaborate across borders. Adopting Coohom became a decisive turning point.
“Coohom enabled seamless cross-border collaboration, cut operational costs, and removed the need for constant hardware upgrades,” Gaetano explains.
With the help of AI, his team now produces detailed 3D renderings, animations, and VR walkthroughs—shortening project timelines by up to 80%, for example, turning a 2-week process into just 3 days. This efficiency supports his firm’s expansion across Europe, the Middle East, and the U.S.
Lubaba Nadim: Winning Clients with Speed and Visual Impact Dubai-based designer Lubaba Nadim turned to Coohom during the pandemic, seeking a more efficient alternative to time-consuming traditional tools. She was quickly won over by its speed and vast asset library.
“The software’s ability to quickly produce high-quality, realistic renders became central to my client presentations,” Nadim says. She now relies on Coohom throughout her workflow—from initial floor plans to final video walkthroughs—creating immersive previews that build client trust and help secure projects.
Qurat ul Ain: Growing a Global E-Design Business with Intuitive Tools As founder of Pakistan’s Uslub Studio, Qurat ul Ain leads a female-led, sustainability-focused e-design firm. For her, Coohom’s intuitive interface is as vital as its rendering power. The platform acts as a “tireless design assistant,” central to delivering 25-30 custom projects each year.
“Coohom’s speed, simplicity, and extensive model library save us considerable time,” Qurat notes. Drag-and-drop functionality boosts productivity, enabling adaptations for everything from compact Karachi apartments to luxury villas in Lahore. For a remote business, generating stunning visuals that resonate emotionally with clients is key to success.
A Unified Advantage: The Coohom Effect Across these varied use cases, Coohom’s core strengths remain clear. Its short learning curve—often supported by online tutorials—helps designers like Qurat and Lubaba get up to speed quickly. The rendering engine meets the high visual standards required by luxury designers like Gaetano. And its cloud-native architecture supports the rapid collaboration modern international firms depend on.
Coohom’s capabilities have earned industry recognition. It was recently featured in 54 G2 Winter 2025 reports, receiving 44 Leader badges. The platform was named a Leader in seven categories, including 3D Rendering, 3D Modeling, and CAD, and ranked as the Most Implementable and Fastest Implementation software in G2’s 3D Rendering Index for three consecutive quarters.
This global attention stems not only from Coohom’s robust product offering but also from the AI and technological expertise of its parent company, Manycore Tech. By leveraging 14 years of data accumulated on the platform, Manycore has built the world’s largest deep learning dataset for indoor scene understanding. Continuous enhancement of tools, based on vast spatial data and advanced models, creates a virtuous data-model-tool cycle—further strengthening Coohom’s appeal in the global design marketplace.
As Gaetano La Vigna expands his global presence and Qurat ul Ain explores affiliate partnership opportunities, one reality is evident: the future of design is borderless, cloud-powered, and inclusive.
