0
With "Implementing the Global Civilization Initiative, Promoting Exchanges and Mutual Learning Between Civilizations" as its theme, the forum has attracted global attention with more than 300 guests from home and abroad

HANGZHOU, China, Dec. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — A report from Xinhuanet North America: 


With "Implementing the Global Civilization Initiative, Promoting Exchanges and Mutual Learning Between Civilizations" as its theme, the forum has attracted global attention with more than 300 guests from home and abroad

The first Liangzhu Forum, one of the key forums to support the higher-quality and higher-level construction of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), ended last week in Hangzhou, the capital of east China’s Zhejiang Province.

With "Implementing the Global Civilization Initiative, Promoting Exchanges and Mutual Learning Between Civilizations" as its theme, the forum has attracted global attention with more than 300 guests from home and abroad.

Chinese President Xi Jinping sent a congratulatory letter to the forum. "The ruins of Liangzhu ancient city are a demonstration of the 5,000-year history of the Chinese civilization and a treasure of world civilizations."

Representatives from the Silk Road International Theatre Alliance, International Museum Alliance, International Art Festival Alliance, International Library Alliance, International Art Museum Alliance, Tourism Cities Alliance, and international cultural and artistic institutions delivered speeches at the forum.

"Greece and China are both ancient civilizations, and both can benefit from recognizing and appreciating each other’s cultural treasures," said Stella Chryssoulaki, general director of Heraklion Archaeological Museum.

Besides the main forum, two sub-forums addressing worldwide sinologists and artists’ impressions of Chinese civilization also took place.

Albert Tadeusz Kozik, assistant professor of the Sinology Department of Warsaw University, said cultural exchange activities between China and Poland are becoming increasingly abundant.

Wu Weishan, curator of the National Art Museum of China, has created over 50 sculptures with the theme of Confucius and other outstanding Chinese historical figures and were showcased worldwide. "In the future, I will continue to promote mutual learning between Chinese and foreign civilizations through sculpture art and actively promote Chinese culture to the world stage," said Wu said.

The "Silk Road Artists’ Rendezvous" exhibition kicked off during the period. As a key sideline event of the Liangzhu Forum, 152 artworks of 84 artists from 83 countries are on show. From late November, foreign artists visited several Chinese cities, including Hangzhou, Huzhou and Shaoxing. Since 2009, hundreds of artists from nearly 100 countries have participated in similar "Silk Road Artists’ Rendezvous" visits to China.

Jointly held by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the People’s Government of Zhejiang Province and China International Culture Association, the first Liangzhu Forum aims to deepen mutual understanding and turn the Global Civilization Initiative into action.

Ponsse manufactures its 20,000th forest machine

0

VIEREMÄ, Finland, Dec. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The 20,000th PONSSE forest machine has been completed at Ponsse’s factory in Vieremä, Finland. After the celebration on 11 December, the PONSSE Bear harvester with PONSSE H8 harvester head will go to a Norwegian customer, Lågen Skogsdrift AS.

"It’s great to see that machine number 20,000 is coming to Norway and to a customer with whom we have good and long cooperation. Our market here in Norway is growing, and this year will be a new record year. The Bear harvester is an impressive machine – and now even more so with its new H8 harvester head. This contributes to our strength in the most demanding harvesting operations in Norway," says Carl-Henrik Hammar, Managing Director Ponsse AB and Ponsse AS

Lågen Skogsdrift AS entrepreneurs have decades of experience in forestry

Lågen Skogsdrift AS is owned by brothers Harald and Gunnar Evju. The company is in Svarstad in the south of Norway. The Lågen Skogsdrift AS operation area is Lågen valley and parts of Vestfold, Telemark and Buskerud Counties. Harald and Gunnar Evju operate in the forest one week and rest the next.

The brothers are long-term Ponsse customers – this is their eighth Ponsse machine. Harald bought his first Ponsse HS 15 in 1996. He already started working in the forest with a chainsaw in 1978, and his first harvester was a Logman, bought in 1993. In 2001, the brothers bought their first forest machine together. It was a PONSSE Ergo with 6 wheels and an H73 harvester head.

"Thank you for your trust from my side, too. We delivered the first PONSSE Bear harvester to Harald and Gunnar in January 2008, and this machine we are handing over today is their fifth PONSSE Bear," says Tom Sundby, Ponsse AS salesman, south and west Norway. "I think Harald could be the person in Norway who has cut the most timber in his working life. He has cut something between 1.1 and 1.2 million cubic metres so far," Sundby continues.  

PONSSE Bear – A specialist in heavy-duty harvesting

PONSSE Bear is the strongest harvester in the model series. The powerful engine, sturdy crane, two powerful work pumps and strong H8 harvester head make it an agile giant for large trees and stands. The new PONSSE H8 harvester head is the next generation’s harvester head equipped with the Active Speed function, which raises effectiveness and productivity to a whole new level, no matter what the tree diameter is. The combination of Bear and H8 is a profitable solution with low lifecycle costs.

2023 SABCS | Laekna Reports Afuresertib Phase Ib Breast Cancer Study Results

0

–     A multi-center phase Ib/III study in China and the United States led by Professor Binghe Xu, MD, PhD, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering

–     70% of the patients enrolled in phase Ib study were previously treated with CDK4/6 inhibitors 

–     Demonstrated a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 30% and a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 7.3 months

SHANGHAI and WARREN, N.J., Dec. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Laekna (2105.HK), a clinical-stage biotechnology company, announced reporting the results of a phase Ib study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of afuresertib plus fulvestrant in patients with locally advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer who failed standard of care therapies at the 2023 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS) on December 8.

From May 2022 to April 2023, 20 patients (19 female and 1 male) with locally advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer who had failed 1-2 lines of endocrine therapy were enrolled in the Phase Ib study. The median duration of follow-up was 11 months.

As of October 16, 2023, the main study results are as follows:

–        70% of the patients were previously treated with CDK4/6 inhibitors.

–        Among the total patient population, the confirmed ORR was 30% (95% CI, 11.9, 54.3),  the median PFS was 7.3 months (95% CI, 3.7, NE). The disease control rate (DCR) was 80%.

–        Among the 11 patients with specific biomarker alterations (PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN), the confirmed objective response rate was 45.4% (95% CI, 16.7, 76.6), the disease control rate was 82%, and the median PFS was 7.3 months (95% CI, 3.6, 8.2).

–        Among the 17 Chinese patients, the confirmed ORR was 29.4% (95% CI, 10.3, 60.0), the disease control rate was 82.4%,  and the median PFS was 7.3 months (95% CI, 3.6, 8.2).

–        The results demonstrated a well-tolerated safety profile of afuresertib plus fulvestrant. No dose modification was required during the safety run-in period. No patient discontinued treatment due to TEAE. No serious adverse event (SAE) was reported. 

Investigators concluded that the combination therapy of afuresertib and fulvestrant has shown promising efficacy with a well-tolerated safety profile, supporting further evaluation in the upcoming Phase III part of the study.

Academician Binghe Xu, the lead investigator of the study, said: "While therapies for breast cancer are increasing, the treatment of drug resistance remains one of the clinical challenges. With the approval of the world’s first AKT inhibitor last month, patients with locally advanced or metastatic HR+/HER2- breast cancer now have new hope. The Phase Ib data of the combination therapy of afuresertib and fulvestrant are promising. I look forward to the next Phase III study of afuresertib in breast cancer."

"Biomarkers of response and/or resistance to endocrine-based therapies has become a prominent topic in the field of breast cancer treatment. It is also the central theme of the ‘Poster Spotlight Session’ in which our study was presented," said Dr. Yong Yue, Chief Medical Officer of Laekna. "Compared with the PFS data of 3-4 months for fulvestrant monotherapy[1], the median PFS of afuresertib plus fulvestrant is significantly increased to 7.3 months, with a favorable safety profile."

Lakena has initiated the Phase III pivotal trial of afuresertib plus fulvestrant in the treatment of HR+/HER2- breast cancer. The company strives to bring new hope to patients.

Notes

Breast cancer

The latest data released by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World Health Organization show that the number of new cases of breast cancer in 2020 reached 2.26 million worldwide, surpassing lung cancer for the first time and becoming the world’s most prevalent cancer with 685,000 deaths. The latest epidemic data of malignant tumors in China also show that breast cancer has ranked first among women, with about 420,000 new cases each year[2].

Approximately 69% of breast cancer patients in the United States are considered HR+/HER2[3], and the proportion of this subtype among Chinese patients is 62%[4]. Although most patients with this type of breast cancer initially benefit from first/second-line endocrine ± CDK4/6 inhibitors and/or chemotherapy, most may develop drug resistance after a period, leading to treatment failure.

With further research on AKT, it has been demonstrated that factors such as PTEN loss and AKT/PIK3CA mutation can lead to excessive activation of the AKT signaling pathway, resulting in the occurrence, development, and drug resistance of tumors, especially prevalent in HR+ breast cancer. AKT has consequently emerged as a popular target for treating tumors.

Afuresertib

Afuresertib (LAE002) is an AKT inhibitor developed by Laekna. Laekna has initiated multiple clinical studies of combination therapies with Afuresertib in patients with PROC, HR+/HER2− breast cancer, mCRPC, TNBC, PD-1-resistant cervical cancer, and endometrial cancer.
