Agilis Robotics Achieves Milestone with World’s First Robotic-Assisted En Bloc Resection of Bladder Tumour in Collaboration with CUHK


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 May 2025 – Hong Kong-based Agilis Robotics has reached a major milestone in surgical innovation with the successful completion of the world’s first robotic-assisted en bloc resection of bladder tumour (ERBT) in patients. This clinical trial, conducted with The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), highlights the Intilume™ System’s potential to improve precision and safety in minimally invasive surgeries.

Pictured with the Intilume™ System (from left) Professor Kwok Ka-wai, Co-Founder of Agilis Robotics and Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Automation Engineering at CUHK, Professor Ng Chi-fai, Tzu Leung Ho Professor of Urology, and Dr Peter Chiu Ka-fung, Associate Professor in the Division of Urology.

The trial, conducted since December 2022, involved eight patients with bladder tumours. All procedures achieved complete tumour removal, and six patients who completed 30-day post-surgery observations showed satisfactory recovery. Two patients remain under observation, with all participants discharged within 1–2 days.

The Intilume™ System
The Intilume™ System is a robotic surgical platform designed to improve precision and stability in minimally invasive procedures. Featuring two dextrous and miniaturised robotic arms (2.8mm–3.5mm in diameter), it enables accurate en bloc tumour resections in confined spaces. Its intuitive controls can reduce reliance on manual dexterity, shorten the learning curve, and enhance outcomes for complex procedures like ERBT.

Addressing Bladder Cancer Treatment Challenges
Bladder cancer is among the 10 most common cancers globally, with 75% of cases being non-muscle-invasive. ERBT is more effective than conventional transurethral resection (TURBT) in reducing recurrence but requires high surgical expertise and carries bleeding and bladder perforation risks. The Intilume™ System improves stability and precision, minimizing these risks.

Dr. Peter CHIU Ka-fung, Associate Professor in CUHK’s Division of Urology, remarked:
“The robotic system increases the stability of ERBT operations, reducing the risks of bleeding and perforation, and enhancing surgical precision. It helps lower the risk of recurrence due to residual tumour tissue and speed up patient recovery.

Future Applications
The Intilume™ System has potential applications beyond bladder cancer, including gastrointestinal, prostate, uterine, and biliary surgeries. Its compatibility with standard endoscopes and adaptable design makes it a versatile tool across various specialties.

This milestone underscores Agilis Robotics’ commitment to advancing precision in minimally invasive surgery.

Exhibition marks the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Singapore and Australia

SYDNEY, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Tails from the Coasts: Nature Stories of Singapore, featuring 36 stunning artworks from the much-prized William Farquhar Collection of Natural History Drawings, on loan from the National Museum of Singapore, has opened at the Australian Museum (AM) in Sydney.

Exploring the breadth of biodiversity in Singapore through the collection of exquisite 200-year-old watercolour paintings, the exhibition’s debut – from 10 May to 7 September 2025 – at the AM forms part of the celebrations of the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two nations.

Director and CEO of the Australian Museum, Kim McKay AO, thanked the National Museum of Singapore for entrusting the AM to host the precious collection – the first time it has ever left Singapore.

“Regarded as a National Treasure in Singapore, these paintings are at once unique and familiar, featuring remarkable mammals, reptiles and stunning botanicals found across the exotic and lush bioregion of Southeast Asia.

“Not only do these pieces document an important reminder of the fragility of the environment, but they also display outstanding skill and techniques of the local artists, who were working within a Western tradition of scientific work, and the combination of perspectives and cultures is compelling,” Ms Kim McKay said.

Key pieces on display include the binturong, a mammal found in Singapore-Malaya which is also known as a bearcat, though neither bear nor cat; the winghead shark, an endangered hammerhead with an especially wide ‘hammer’; and the beguiling slow loris, Singapore’s solitary primate which is now extremely rare due to habitat loss and poaching.

Ms Chung May Khuen, Director of the National Museum of Singapore, said opening the nationally significant exhibition at the Australian Museum was an important display of collaboration and connection between the two museums – both of which had their roots in natural history and are the oldest museums in their respective countries. 

“Natural heritage is something that is very important to both Singapore and Australia. The exhibition is an opportune collaboration to commemorate relations between both countries, through the lens of animals and geographies that connect us. We look forward to this exhibition sparking meaningful conversations around critical contemporary issues of environmental and animal conservation.”

“We thank the Australian Museum for their enthusiasm and work to ensure this important piece of scientific artistry is shared with visitors from across the region and we hope it inspires the same sense of wonder and awe of our natural world,” Ms Chung May Khuen said.

Tails from the Coasts: Nature Stories of Singapore is a free exhibition at the Australian Museum from 10 May to 7 September 2025. After which, the exhibition will travel to the Adelaide Botanic Garden from 4 October 2025 to 1 February 2026.

About the William Farquhar Collection of Natural History Drawings

Major-General William Farquhar (1774–1839) was the Commandant and Resident of Melaka (1803–1818) and Singapore (1819–1823). A trusted figure in Malaya, he accompanied Sir Stamford Raffles to Singapore to establish a British trading post. While developing Singapore’s trade and port systems, Farquhar’s passion for botanicals and natural history became prominent in his career, leading to the creation of the William Farquhar Collection of Natural History Drawings. 

The full collection consists of 477 watercolours of plants and animals, commissioned by Farquhar and painted by Chinese artists. The drawings employ traditional Chinese brush techniques while blending Western perspectives and naturalism. The collection is celebrated not only for its artistic merit but also for its scientific significance. Showcasing detailed representations of both plants and animals, the drawings provide a valuable record of the rich biodiversity of the Malay Peninsula in the 19th century.

Kexing Biopharm’s GB18 project received clearance of IND application from NMPA and FDA

SHENZHEN, China, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On May 26th, Kexing Biopharm (688136.SH) announced that the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) has approved the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for its independently developed innovative product, GB18. Moreover, GB18 has previously received the clearance from U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for IND application on May 21st.

GB18 is an innovative biologic product developed for the treatment of cancer cachexia, a complication with a prevalence up to 40% to 70% among cancer patients. Currently, no specific biological therapies are available to address the condition, presenting vast market potential. Featuring a unique nanobody-Fc fusion molecular structure, the product demonstrates enhanced stability, bettered bioavailability, and significantly improved performance in inhibiting disease-associated signaling pathways.

Benchmarking against globally leading pipelines with the same target (GDF-15) and indication, Kexing Biopharm’s GB18 features a special nanobody-Fc fusion structure (VHH-Fc), with the patents granted or applied for the molecule globally already. Last October, a research article of GB18’s preclinical study was published in the renowned international academic journal mAbs, which demonstrated that GB18 effectively alleviated weight loss in cancer cachexia models, showing superior weight recovery and improved muscle fibers in both quantity and size compared to the comparator.

In cancer cachexia, the expression level of GDF-15 is significantly elevated, which is closely associated with tumor progression and the severity of cachexia. Therefore, targeting GDF-15 has emerged as a new strategy in addressing the clinical challenge of cancer cachexia. This recent FDA IND approval marks a significant milestone in the Company’s globalization of innovative products.

Approximately millions advanced cancer patients annually in the world are suffering from cachexia. There is a significant unmet clinical need for the indication of cancer cachexia.Kexing Biopharm will remain steadfast in its mission to deliver “Precise Products, Predictable Effects, and Health Protection”, with a focus on product quality and a commitment to scientific innovation, and improve the lives of patients worldwide.

J&T Express Malaysia Reinforces ESG Commitment with Sustainable Operations Initiatives

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — J&T Express Malaysia today announced a series of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives aimed at reinforcing its commitment to responsible and sustainable business practices. As one of Malaysia’s leading express delivery service providers, the company continues to implement actionable measures that contribute to a greener logistics sector and foster long-term value for communities, employees, and partners.

Environmental Sustainability in Action: Adoption of Recycled Woven Gunny Bags

In a major step toward reducing environmental impact, J&T Express Malaysia has successfully implemented the use of recycled polyethylene (PE) woven gunny bags across all warehouses and outlets in West Malaysia. Launched in March 2024 at two gateway facilities, J&T gradually expanded the initiative, and it was fully rolled out by mid-November 2024. To date, the company has deployed approximately 310,000 woven gunny bags throughout Peninsular Malaysia with Sabah and Sarawak to follow suit later.

This green initiative not only minimises plastic usage but also aligns with circular economy principles. To support the durability and extended use of the recycled bags, J&T Express Malaysia invested in industrial sewing machines. Additional technologies such as tunnel machines and RFID scanners were also introduced to facilitate integration and enhance the efficiency of parcel sorting and tracking.

Social Commitment: Empowering People and Communities

Beyond environmental efforts, J&T Express Malaysia continues to prioritise the well-being of its workforce and the communities it serves. The company maintains strong occupational health and safety standards across its facilities, invests in self-development programmes that empower our staff to enhance their skills, knowledge, and personal growth, and contributes to community-based activities through donations and disaster relief efforts. These initiatives reflect a holistic approach to building a supportive, inclusive, and people-first work culture.

Strong Governance for Sustainable Growth

Underpinning its operations is a governance framework rooted in transparency, compliance, and ethical business conduct. J&T Express Malaysia ensures strict adherence to regulatory requirements, actively safeguards data privacy and customer trust, and promotes internal accountability at all levels of the organization. These principles guide the company in delivering reliable service while upholding stakeholder confidence.

Looking Ahead

“We recognise that sustainability is not a destination, but a continuous journey,” said Jacky Hu, Public Affairs Manager of J&T Express Malaysia. “From reducing plastic waste with our woven gunny bag programme to enhancing employee welfare and governance standards, our ESG initiatives are designed to build a more resilient and responsible organisation for the future.”

While the current sustainability efforts are focused on West Malaysia, J&T Express Malaysia remains committed to exploring future initiatives in East Malaysia and across its broader network.
