Friday at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Science and Technology Industrial Park of Cooperation Between Guangdong and Macao in the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin.
Guests of honour gather on stage after an MOU signing between Sands China and Guangdong-Macau Traditional Chinese Medicine Technology Industrial Park Development Co. Ltd. Friday at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Science and Technology Industrial Park of Cooperation Between Guangdong and Macao in the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin.

They signed the MOU with the goal of injecting momentum into the industry by taking advantage Macao’s positioning as a world centre of leisure and tourism, its outstanding hardware and software offerings, and the convenience of the “one-hour living circle” formed in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Macao is a city where Eastern and Western cultures have co-existed for over 400 years. By offering rich tourism resources and capitalising on its proximity to Hengqin, Macao has become one of the four key cities in the Greater Bay Area. The partnership between Sands China and GMTCM aims to employ the strengths of their hardware and software resources to unleash the potential of Macao-Hengqin development through promoting regional collaboration. They plan to fully utilise their respective resources to help health brands in Macao and Hengqin go global and attract international and domestic investment to Macao – laying the foundation for collaboration between Big Health products and related MICE events, fully in line with Macao’s vision of promoting “1+4” moderate economic diversification.

Meanwhile, they will cooperate to make use of their expertise and resources in the tourism and leisure, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Big Health industries to create opportunities for integrating Big Health and tourism in Macao and Hengqin, highlighting the convenience of the border crossing and facilitating the development of both regions.

Grant Chum, chief executive officer and executive director of Sands China Ltd., said: “Rooted in Macao, which we have called home for more than two decades, Sands China is honoured to be the first among Macao’s integrated resort operators to sign an MOU with GMTCM. We have actively participated in this high-level collaboration, aiming to apply our strengths and value to enhance the city’s pivotal role as a world centre of tourism and leisure and a gateway for cultural exchange between East and West – deepening Macao’s integration into national development. Given that the global health tourism industry holds significant growth potential and a vast market scale, we hope to connect our tourism sector with Big Health by utilising resources within integrated resorts, organising conferences and exhibitions, and introducing health tourism products to make Macao a player in this emerging industry. In the future, we will collaborate with GMTCM to establish an industrial chain for the health tourism industry, promoting Macao and Hengqin as premier destinations in this regard.”­

Wu Song, chairman of Guangdong-Macau Traditional Chinese Medicine Technology Industrial Park Development Co., Ltd., said: “This collaboration marks the official launch of in-depth cooperation between the two parties in the field of Big Health and tourism, carrying profound significance for advancing the cross-sector integration of Macao and Hengqin’s ‘tourism+’ initiatives. Since China Taiping officially took over the operation of the industrial park in January 2023, significant achievements have been made with the enthusiastic support of relevant central ministries, the Macao SAR government, and various sectors of society.

“This joint effort is a concrete measure in response to the Macao SAR government’s 2025 Policy Address to support key industrial projects in Macao and Hengqin, as well as deepening the cross-sector integration of ‘tourism+’. The industrial park and Sands China have vast potential for collaboration in areas such as product development, service innovation, and market expansion. The partnership will inject new momentum into Macao’s moderate economic diversification and the construction of the Greater Bay Area’s Traditional Chinese Medicine hub, together writing a new chapter in the great practice of One Country, Two Systems.”

Potential collaborative projects between Sands China and GMTCM include organising Big Health MICE events through their venue resources and professional platforms to promote the mutual development of the medical, healthcare, and wellness industry in Macao and Hengqin. Related events might include professional forums, industrial exhibitions, and international conferences and meetings, intended to strengthen exchange and interaction between Macao and Hengqin. Other possibilities include introducing new Big Health tourism facilities and products at Sands China’s integrated resorts and GMTCM Park to provide premium health management and medical care services for tourists and residents in Macao and Hengqin.

Guests of honour at Friday’s MOU signing ceremony were: Tai Kin Ip, Secretary for Economy and Finance of the Macao SAR and deputy director of the executive committee of the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin; Yang Quanzhou, deputy director of the Economic Affairs Department of the Central Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the Macao SAR; Yang Minggang, deputy general manager of China Taiping Insurance Group Limited; Wu Song; Zhang Haihong, acting president of the board of Macao Investment and Development Co., Ltd. and chairman of the supervisory committee of Guangdong-Macau Traditional Chinese Medicine Technology Industrial Park Development Co., Ltd.; Grant Chum; and Dave Sun, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Sands China Ltd. and managing director of Venetian Macau Limited.

As the first project implemented under the Framework Agreement on Cooperation between Guangdong and Macao, GMTCM Park was officially established in Hengqin in April 2011. It is located in the northwest high-tech zone of the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin, covering an area of 500,000 square meters. An investment of 8 billion RMB has been made to date, resulting in the development of various facilities, including office buildings, research and development spaces, hotels, commercial streets, museums, pharmaceutical factories, testing centres, Traditional Chinese Medicine laboratories, and apartments for experts and other talent. As of the end of March, there were 235 enterprises registered at GMTCM Park, including 89 from Macao, in fields such as Traditional Chinese Medicine, cosmetics, health products, medical devices, biomedicine, and medical services. GMTCM Park has established an incubation base featuring GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) pilot-scale production, research, development, and testing that meet the certification standards of mainland China, making it a professional public service platform with internationally advanced standards.

  • No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), ≥Grade 3 cytokine release syndrome (CRS), immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), or graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were reported. The product demonstrated a favorable safety profile, with no patients discontinuing treatment due to adverse events.
  • 1) Among 5 patients who completed the first efficacy assessment at Week 4, 3 patients (60%) achieved stringent complete response/complete response (sCR/CR), and 4 patients (80%) achieved minimal residual disease (MRD)-negativity in the bone marrow. 2) Early efficacy data from 2 patients at Day 14 showed reductions in measurable lesions by ≥92% and ≥65%, respectively. 3) 1 patient had not yet reached the protocol-specified efficacy assessment timepoint.
  • All sCR/CR patients remained in ongoing responses, including the first patient who completed the four-month follow-up.

Based on the preliminary safety and efficacy data, CT0596 demonstrated favorable tolerability and encouraging efficacy signals in R/R MM patients across all predefined dose levels, with CAR-T expansion observed. These findings warrant further exploration not only in R/R MM, but also in other plasma cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases mediated by autoreactive plasma cells. CARsgen plans to present detailed clinical data at upcoming scientific conferences. The company anticipates submitting an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for this product candidate in the second half of 2025.

About THANK-u Plus™

CARsgen has developed the THANK-u Plus™ platform as an enhanced version of its proprietary THANK-uCAR® allogeneic CAR-T technology to address the potential impact of NKG2A expression levels on therapeutic efficacy. THANK-u Plus™ demonstrates sustained expansion regardless of varying NKG2A expression levels on NK cells and exhibits significantly improved expansion compared to THANK-uCAR®. Preclinical studies show that THANK-u Plus™ delivers superior antitumor efficacy in the presence of NK cells compared to THANK-uCAR®. Allogeneic BCMA or dual-targeting CD19/CD20 CAR-T cells developed using this platform exhibit robust antitumor activity in the presence of NK cells, indicating that THANK-u Plus™ has broad potential for developing diverse allogeneic CAR-T therapies.
