Grand Pharma’s Global Innovative Product STC3141 Achieved the Clinical Endpoint of The Phase Ib Clinical Trial for the Treatment of ARDS in China

  • According to the data analysis of the clinical trial, in the primary endpoint of the study, STC3141 did not suggest any potential serious safety problems or unexpected results in the overall safety profile, showing favorable safety and tolerance;
  • In the analysis of the secondary endpoint of efficacy, STC3141 showed positive signals compared with standard treatment method in terms of alleviating the severity of ARDS, improving the prognosis of ARDS patients, helping ARDS patients to be weaned off the ventilator and shortening the ICU length of stay;
  • The Phase IIa clinical study of STC3141 for the treatment of severe COVID-19 patients conducted in Europe has also achieved its clinical endpoint, with no serious drug-related adverse reactions, and the patients were well tolerated.

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 31 October 2022 – Grand Pharmaceutical Group Limited (“Grand Pharma“, stock code: 00512) announced that that the global innovative drug STC3141 in the field of severe disease, which is developed by its wholly-owned subsidiary Grand Medical Pty Ltd (an innovative drug R&D center set up by Grand Pharma in Australia), has successfully achieved the clinical study endpoint of the phase Ib clinical trial for the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (“ARDS“) in China (“NCT05000671“).

NCT05000671 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase Ib clinical study for investigating and evaluating the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of the drug in patients with ARDS. The study received clinical approval for conducting clinical study from the National Medical Products Administration of the People’s Republic of China (NMPA) in March 2021 and completed the first patient enrollment in October, enrolled all patients in July 2022, and completed all follow-up and data analysis recently. A total of 16 evaluable subjects were enrolled in the study. All patients received standard intensive care unit (“ICU“) supported treatment and care appropriate to their conditions, adopting the principle of continuous 72-hour intravenous administration and dose-escalation grouped dosing. Subjects in each group were continuously observed until the 28th day after receiving treatment.

According to the data analysis of the clinical trial, in the primary endpoint of the study, STC3141 did not suggest any potential serious safety problems or unexpected results in the overall safety profile, showing favorable safety and tolerance. Meanwhile, in the analysis of the secondary endpoint of efficacy, STC3141 showed positive signals compared with standard treatment method in terms of alleviating the severity of ARDS, improving the prognosis of ARDS patients, helping ARDS patients to be weaned off the ventilator and shortening the ICU length of stay. It provides a solid foundation for further clinical research of the product.

ARDS is one of the main causes of death in ICU patients, and currently there is no effective medication treatment method in clinical practice. According to a statistical data related to nearly 30,000 patients in 459 ICUs of 50 countries around the world, the prevalence of ARDS is approximately 10.4% in critically ill patients, the overall mortality rate is approximately 34% in hospital, and mortality rate is approximately 60% in severe patients. In addition, among patients with severe COVID-19, ARDS is also one of the main causes of death, indicating an urgent clinical demand and tremendous market prospect.

STC3141 is a global innovative small molecule compound with a new mechanism of action independently developed by Grand Pharma. It can reverse the organ damage caused by the body’s excessive immune response by neutralizing extracellular free histones and neutrophil traps, and can be used for a variety of severe indications. The relevant preclinical research results of the product have been published in the top academic journal “Nature Communications” in February 2020, which has far-reaching academic influence.

In terms of clinical research, in addition to the Phase Ib clinical study for the treatment of ARDS patients conducted in China, the Phase IIa clinical study of STC3141 for the treatment of severe COVID-19 patients conducted in Europe has also achieved its clinical endpoint, with no serious drug-related adverse reactions, and the patients were well tolerated. Moreover, the product has approved to conduct Phase Ib clinical studies for the treatment of sepsis in Australia in May 2020 and in Belgium in April 2022, respectively, comprehensively promoting the international multi-center clinical trials.

Grand Pharma commented, “The achievement of the clinical endpoint in the Phase Ib clinical study in China of this project is not only an important milestone in the Group’s global clinical research process, but also provide solid data support for the subsequent clinical development of the product. In the future, the Group will continue to adopt the R&D concept of independent R&D and global expansion to create a full-cycle management product cluster for chronic airway diseases and a pipeline of anti-infection products for severe diseases, so as to continuously strengthen the Group’s industry position in this field.”

Protecting the Best Moments: Reckitt’s brand Dettol named Official Hygiene Partner for the 2022 Cathay Pacific/HSBC Hong Kong Sevens

  • All-round hygiene protection for world class players and over 30,000 participants at the first Hong Kong Sevens tournament since the pandemic
  • Engagement with local rugby stars in a series of brand videos shows how Dettol helps ‘protect the best moments’
  • Renowned former sports anchor Vince Ng to share experience at the tournament on social media

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 31 October 2022 – As part of its ongoing partnership with the Hong Kong Rugby Union, Reckitt’s brand Dettol is joining as Official Hygiene Partner of the world-renowned Cathay Pacific/HSBC Hong Kong Sevens, helping to implement enhanced hygiene protocols for the tournament. Returning for the first time since the pandemic, the tournament will see 16 teams battle it out over three days from 4th – 6th November 2022.

“At Reckitt, we put people first. This passion drives us in seeking new opportunities to build shared success with our partners from different segments. It is our great honour to collaborate with the Hong Kong Rugby Union once again as part of our deepened partnership, to protect all fans at the first Hong Kong Sevens since the pandemic so that everyone can enjoy the three-day event to the fullest,” said Boudewijn Feith, General Manager, Hong Kong/Taiwan at Reckitt.

“As one of the world’s most trusted disinfectant brands, Dettol will continue to protect everyone’s best moments with our expertise, to help enable the safe return of more much-anticipated mass events.”

In keeping with Reckitt’s purpose in pursuit of a healthier and cleaner world built on the foundation of good hygiene, Dettol will promote positive public hygiene practices and provide easy access to its widely trusted hygiene and disinfectant products for supporters, players, and officials throughout the weekend.

Providing All-rounded Protection with Dettol’s Extensive Range of Products

Throughout the three-day extravaganza of international rugby revelry, Dettol will provide all-round onsite hygiene protection with the setting up of Dettol hand sanitizer stations at over 130 spots covering the executive suites, concourse, entrances and security check zones across the Hong Kong Stadium. Dettol disinfectant products will be used in the comprehensive sanitisation protocols of the players’ changing rooms, and Dettol will provide personal hygiene and disinfectant solutions as care packages to the players. This extensive protection is the key to ensure a safe and confident return of mass participatory events like the Hong Kong Sevens.

Engaging Local Star Players and Popular Sports Influencers throughout the Campaign

With the goal of vividly illustrating how Dettol can protect everyone’s best moments, star players from the Hong Kong Team and popular sports influencers have been engaged throughout the campaign. Players from the Men’s and Women’s team have taken part in three brand videos encouraging good personal hygiene protection practices using Dettol’s products such as hand sanitiser and body wash. The players used these practices to protect the most important moments in a game, such as the half-time break and victory celebrations. Renowned TV and sports programme host Johnny Hui Pok-man narrated the videos, and his lively commentary helps convey the brand’s messages in an impactful and engaging manner.

In order to share the fast and furious rugby action and Dettol’s enhanced hygiene protocols with those outside of the stadium, Dettol also engaged former sports news anchor Vince Ng as an onsite commentator. He will report on the best moments of the long-awaited tournament, interact with spectators and share across social media throughout this unmissable event.

“We are thrilled to have Reckitt and Dettol’s continued support for our flagship event. This engagement follows Dettol’s successful Principal Partnership of the Hong Kong Rugby Premiership. As the first Hong Kong Sevens tournament since the pandemic, the partnership with a globally trusted hygiene brand like Dettol is instrumental in helping us return safely and successfully.”

“The wait is now over and we are looking forward to welcoming the crowd back at the Cathay Pacific/HSBC Hong Kong Sevens, and bringing more truly unforgettable moments to all,” said Bryan Rennie, Head of Commercial and Business Development of the Hong Kong Rugby Union.

Globally, Dettol has partnered with many leading organizations and supported major events worldwide, including the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games, the English Football Association (FA), Cricket Australia, Hilton Hotels, and British Airways, to deliver its brand purpose of protecting what people love — be that families, sports, or day-to-day life moments.

Swiss Chamber Eyes Bigger Role in Singapore: Businesses to Drive Innovation, HR Development

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 31 October 2022 – Swiss Chamber of Commerce and Industry Singapore (SwissCham) said it aims to leverage on the core strengths of innovation and the people-centred expertise of its member businesses to deliver a stronger presence in Singapore and foster cross-border collaboration.

SwissCham members have increasingly harnessed their core competencies of innovation and people-focussed expertise to develop a pole position in Singapore. With the onset and through the Covid pandemic, Swiss companies doubled their efforts in people retention and development by supporting, training, and developing their Singapore staff. This has increasingly given SwissCham members greater recognition as employers of choice. SwissCham announced this at their annual gala event.

Present as Guest-of-Honour at the SwissCham Gala event over the weekend was Deputy Prime Minister and Coordinating Minister for Economic Policies Mr Heng Swee Keat.

Speaking at the event, SwissCham Chairman, Mr Georg von Wattenwyl, shared a four-pronged strategy will help deliver on the bigger goal. These are:

– Providing a more conducive platform for cross-border knowledge transfer and creation. Four sub-committees – Climate­Tech, Digital Transformation, International Relations Asia, and Hospitality – will support Swiss businesses in their pursuits.
– Widening and fostering stronger collaboration with Singapore-based trade associations and chambers and government agencies. A new “International Relations” sub-committee will build on this new initiative.
– Strengthening networking within the business community, both through informal and formal channels. Such regular engagements aim to deliver on this strategy.
– Increasing the profile and presence of SwissCham so that it can be a more prominent “voice” in the Singapore business community.

He said: “The Swiss Chamber of Commerce and Industry is eager to foster and recognise innovation in the business communities and sectors that we work in and this drives us. A key undercurrent is the understanding that innovation is a key focus of Swiss businesses, in fact, innovation is in the DNA of Switzerland.

“Innovation equally applies in good measure to human resource development. Socio-economic developments over the past three years have intensified the need for good talent, especially from the positions of acquisition and retention. Much can be learnt from Swiss businesses how innovated and adapted to these new realities by relying on emerging business practices, showing creativity and innovation, while developing sustainable activities in new formats,” he said.

Currently, SwissCham comprises 200 companies and collectively these businesses account for 25,000 jobs in Singapore. These companies come from a cross section of industries, notably, Technology, Finance & FinTech, Pharmaceutical, and Luxury.

Globally, Switzerland recently received the top accolade as the most innovative country in the world in 2022 from the Global Innovation Index, which is published by the World Intellectual Property Organization.

Looking ahead, SwissCham will be a key participant under the Swiss Pavilion – hosted by Switzerland Global Enterprise (S-GE) and the Swiss Business Hub ASEAN – at Singapore Fintech Festival 2022. Running from 2 – 4 November 2022 at the Singapore Expo, the event is organised by the Monetary Authority of Singapore in collaboration with the Association of Banks in Singapore.

In recent years, Switzerland has become a vibrant hub for emerging technologies, such as fintech, blockchain, and distributed ledger technology (DLT). With regard to the new DLT Framework coming into effect in 2021, Switzerland became one of the first countries in the world to deliver advanced regulatory solutions and specific amendments for fintech and blockchain, among others.

In 2023, Swiss Cham will launch the 6th edition of its Business Excellence Awards in the first quarter of 2023. The award recognises excellence in the categories of People & Skills Development and Digital Transformation. More details on the awards will be made available at https://swisscham.sg/.

In the 2021 Awards, Swiss-based DKSH Singapore was chosen as the grand winner for the People & Skills Development Award 2021 by an independent jury of experts.

DKSH Singapore Human Resources Director Lee Yu Chuan then said “As a people-driven company, we seek to be an attractive employer known for our commitment to developing our talent, embracing diversity and inclusion, and offering a supportive work environment. This award is a great acknowledgment of the progress achieved through the outstanding efforts of our team.”

Another winner for the People & Skills Development Award in 2020 was Acronis, whose core business lies in protecting organisational data, applications, systems and productivity – safeguarding them against cyberattacks, hardware failures, natural disasters and human errors. The citation said that Acronis exemplified a corporate culture focused on making a positive impact on the lives of employees and the communities in which they operate.
