A World-First in Neonatal Care: Japan Approves Prolacta Bioscience’s 100% Human Milk-Based Fortifiers as a Prescription Drug for Vulnerable Infants

Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) Approves PreemieFort® Enteral Solution as Prescription Medicine in the NICU 

DUARTE, Calif., Feb. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Prolacta Bioscience® today announced that Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) has approved PreemieFort® Enteral Solution, a 100% human milk-based fortifier, as a prescription drug for very low birth weight infants, infants with congenital gastrointestinal disorders or congenital heart diseases, and those recovering from gastrointestinal surgery. This regulatory milestone was achieved in partnership with the Clinigen Group, which serves as Marketing Authorization Holder and distributor in Japan. PreemieFort is currently marketed under the brand name “Humavant” outside of the U.S., Canada, and Japan.  

The landmark regulatory decision validates the critical role of Prolacta’s 100% human milk-based fortifiers for the most fragile infants and sets a powerful precedent for neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) worldwide.  

“Japan’s approval of PreemieFort as a prescription drug reflects the strength of the clinical evidence and the pharmaceutical grade processing that stands up to the rigor of Japan’s stringent regulatory and quality requirements,” said Scott Elster, CEO of Prolacta Bioscience. ”The pivotal Japanese clinical study adds to the extensive evidence supporting the benefits of Prolacta’s exclusive human milk-based diet for critically ill and fragile premature infants.”   

Clinical evidence generated in Japan from the JASMINE trial (“A Randomized, Controlled Study to Assess Growth and Safety of the Exclusive Human Milk Diet (EHMD) in Very Low Birth Weight (VLBW) Infants”) informed Japan’s world-class Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency’s (PMDA) review.  The Japanese-led phase III, randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter trial evaluated growth and safety associated with Prolacta’s 100% human milk-based fortifiers, demonstrating significantly better growth in VLBW infants with no change in morbidity or mortality. 

Japan is recognized as a global leader in neonatal care, with among the highest preterm survival rates and lowest rates of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC),1,2 a life-threatening intestinal disease primarily affecting premature infants. By granting pharmaceutical approval to PreemieFort, Japan is affirming that Prolacta’s human milk-based fortifiers, free from cow milk, are not simply a nutritional choice but an Rx medicine in the NICU.   

Japan’s approval includes three Prolacta products — PreemieFort Enteral Solution 6, PreemieFort Enteral Solution 8 (Humavant+6 and Humavant+8 human milk-based fortifiers outside the U.S., Canada, and Japan), and PreemieFort Enteral Solution CF (Humavant CR human milk caloric fortifier outside the U.S., Canada, and Japan) — which provide concentrated nutrition to support growth by delivering essential calories and nutrients, while retaining the highest level of human milk bioactivity.  

The approval demonstrates clinical confidence in the benefits and safety of PreemieFort human milk-based fortifiers across a wider range of vulnerable infants with complex nutritional needs.  

“In the NICU, what we feed our smallest patients can influence their entire life,” said Kate Tauber, MD, MA, professor of pediatrics and director of the Human Milk Program at Bernard and Millie Duker Children’s Hospital. “Human milk-based fortifiers should be held to the same expectations as other therapies, consistent, tightly controlled, and safe. Prolacta’s commitment to pharmaceutical-quality manufacturing requirements helps protect vulnerable infants and supports better outcomes.” 

Prolacta maintains the industry’s strictest quality and safety standards for screening, testing, and processing donor milk — standards that extend through pharmaceutical grade product manufacturing. Together, these controls earned Japan’s prescription drug approval, one of the world’s highest regulatory benchmarks.

About Prolacta Bioscience
Prolacta Bioscience® is the global leader in human milk-based nutrition, dedicated to improving health outcomes for critically ill and premature infants. The company’s 100% human milk-based fortifiers and formulas have been used in more than 125,000 vulnerable premature infants worldwide.3 In a global first, Japan granted Prolacta’s PreemieFort® fortifiers prescription drug status in late 2025 for very low birth weight infants, infants with congenital gastrointestinal disorders or congenital heart diseases, and those recovering from gastrointestinal surgery. Prolacta operates pharmaceutical-grade human milk processing facilities and maintains the industry’s strictest quality and safety standards, with more than 20 tests to screen donor milk and the use of vat pasteurization to inactivate pathogens and ensure safety. Its vat pasteurization also preserves the bioactive components of human milk that support immune protection, gut development, and growth — benefits that are especially important for premature and medically fragile infants.4-6  Vat pasteurization keeps human milk closer to its natural state than other processing methods, while still ensuring safety. Prolacta has built a secure, independent donor milk supply chain supported by long-term partnerships with thousands of rigorously screened donors, ensuring ample supply to meet NICU demand. Prolacta’s products have been evaluated in over 30 peer-reviewed clinical studies, demonstrating the short- and long-term health benefits of its patented human milk-based fortifiers and formulas. Learn more online or at XInstagramFacebookTikTok, and LinkedIn

MicroCloud Hologram Inc. Quantum Intelligent Interconnected Fault-Tolerant Consensus Algorithm Achieves Collaborative Control of Financial Internet Nodes

SHENZHEN, China, Feb. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MicroCloud Hologram Inc. (NASDAQ: HOLO), (“HOLO” or the “Company”), a technology service provider, proposed a quantum intelligent interconnected fault-tolerant consensus algorithm that deeply integrates quantum computing technology into the consensus mechanism, achieving dynamic automatic access and secure exit of financial internet nodes in edge computing networks. This not only strengthens the system’s flexibility and scalability but also builds a solid defense line for stability and security through quantum fault-tolerant technology, providing key support for the fusion of edge computing and financial services.

The quantum intelligent interconnected fault-tolerant consensus algorithm is a quantum-enhanced scheme optimized and upgraded based on the traditional Byzantine fault-tolerant algorithm. Its core advantage lies in retaining an efficient consensus process while significantly improving adaptability to dynamic network environments. The core of its quantum innovation is the introduction of a quantum Byzantine fault-tolerant mechanism, which enhances node consensus efficiency through quantum parallel verification technology and achieves real-time synchronization of node states by leveraging quantum entanglement characteristics. Unlike traditional algorithms, the core logic of this algorithm involves dynamically electing a quantum primary node to complete the sorting and packaging of financial data, while allowing nodes to freely join or exit without interrupting financial services, adapting to the dynamic topological characteristics of edge computing networks.

Building on the quantum intelligent interconnected fault-tolerant consensus algorithm, HOLO has specifically designed a quantum-enhanced edge node management system, which includes a quantum node selection mechanism based on geographic location and a quantum node evaluation system based on performance dimensions. This mechanism allows edge nodes closer to the data source to more easily become quantum primary nodes, improving processing efficiency by shortening data transmission distances. The evaluation system uses quantum sensors to collect real-time core indicators such as nodes’ computing load, storage capacity, and bandwidth peaks, generating dynamic quantitative scores to achieve precise control over node performance and optimal resource allocation.

In the consensus process of the quantum intelligent interconnected fault-tolerant consensus algorithm, every node in the edge computing network has dual adaptability as both a quantum primary node and a slave node. The quantum primary node is responsible for capturing transaction requests from edge financial terminals, completing data sorting, and packaging it into quantum-encrypted data units. Quantum slave nodes perform parallel verification of the data units through quantum verification algorithms. Once the entire network reaches quantum consensus, the data is written into the local distributed financial database. This quantum consensus mechanism can effectively resist faults or malicious attacks from some nodes, ensuring the consistency of network consensus and the integrity of financial data through quantum fault-tolerant verification.

The quantum-driven node dynamic access mechanism significantly lowers the entry threshold for edge nodes. New nodes do not need to wait for a specific time window or restart the entire network; they only need to initiate the quantum identity authentication process and submit quantum-encrypted identity credentials to the consensus nodes in the network. After the verification nodes complete identity verification and permission confirmation through quantum key distribution technology, the new node can quickly obtain network parameters and global state information, synchronously join the consensus network, and participate in financial transaction processing. The entire process achieves full automation and low-latency adaptation.

The quantum intelligent interconnected fault-tolerant consensus algorithm, with its dynamic node management capabilities, quantum-level Byzantine fault tolerance advantages, and excellent stability, has already demonstrated broad application prospects in multiple edge computing-related fields. In scenarios such as collaborative financial IoT terminals, interconnected smart payment devices, and intelligent financial edge node management, this algorithm can effectively support the collaborative work of massive distributed financial devices, ensuring the security of financial data transmission and storage through quantum encryption and fault-tolerant technology, providing core technical support for the deep integration of edge computing and financial internet.

As 5G and IoT technologies continue to iterate, the fusion of edge computing and financial internet will become increasingly close. HOLO’s quantum intelligent interconnected fault-tolerant consensus algorithm, as the core enabling technology for this fusion, is expected to play a key role in the digital transformation process. In the future, by continuously optimizing quantum consensus efficiency and expanding quantum fault-tolerant boundaries, this algorithm will lay a solid foundation for building a more secure, efficient, and reliable edge financial internet network, driving the large-scale implementation and value release of edge financial technology in more industry scenarios.

Why Recognition from G2 Matters

As the world’s largest and most trusted software marketplace, G2 reaches over 100 million buyers annually. Its annual Best Software Awards rank the world’s best software companies and products based on verified, high-quality customer reviews. 

Each year, thousands of solutions are evaluated using transparent criteria, including:

  • Review volume
  • Satisfaction scores
  • Market presence and adoption

The Best ERP Software Products list represents one of the most competitive categories, and only the highest-performing, most customer-loved solutions rise to the top.

G2’s 2026 Best Software Awards rank software vendors and products using G2’s proprietary scoring algorithm that analyzes authenticated user sentiment alongside publicly available market data. This ensures the rankings reflect products that consistently deliver measurable customer impact.

G2’s awards reflect authentic, timely feedback from millions of software buyers—only the top ~1% of over 150,000 vendors listed on the platform earn a place on its lists.

“As buyers increasingly shift to AI-driven research to discover software solutions, being recommended in the ‘answer moment’ must be earned with credible proof,” said Godard Abel, co-founder and CEO at G2. “Our Best Software Awards are grounded in trusted data from authentic customer reviews. They not only give buyers an objective, reliable guide to the products that help teams do their best work, but they’re also the proof AI search platforms rely on when sourcing answers. Congratulations to this year’s winners, including Deltek Vantagepoint. Earning a spot on these lists signals real customer impact.”
