China Medical System (867.HK, 8A8.SG) NDA for the Improved New Drug ZUNVEYL for Alzheimer’s Disease Accepted in China

Published

on

SHENZHEN, CHINA China Medical System Holdings Limited (“CMS” or the “Group”) is pleased to announce that on 28 July 2025, the New Drug Application (NDA) for improved new drug ZUNVEYL (Benzgalantamine Gluconate Enteric-coated Tablets) (“ZUNVEYL” or the “Product”) has been accepted by the National Medical Products Administration of China (NMPA). The Product is indicated for the treatment of mild-to-moderate dementia of the Alzheimer’s type in adults.

About Product ZUNVEYL

ZUNVEYL was approved in July 2024 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of mild-to-moderate dementia of the Alzheimer’s type in adults. As a new generation of acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEI), ZUNVEYL can inhibit the acetylcholinesterase from breaking down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, increase the level of acetylcholine in the central nervous system, and therefore alleviate cognition and memory impairment in Alzheimer’s disease patients. As a prodrug of galantamine, ZUNVEYL remains inert as it passes through the stomach and the intestine, and eventually releases the active drug into the bloodstream after being metabolized by the liver. With such a mechanism of action, ZUNVEYL is expected to have equivalent efficacy as galantamine with the potential of reducing gastrointestinal (GI) side effects and addressing certain tolerability issues. Galantamine has accumulated extensive evidence of efficacy and demonstrated long-term clinical benefit in the treatment of mild-to-moderate dementia of the Alzheimer’s type since the approval of FDA in 2001[1]. Moreover, GI adverse events documented across all studies for ZUNVEYL were less than 2% and no insomnia was observed[2]. As the second oral therapy approved by FDA for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease during the past decade, ZUNVEYL demonstrates a potentially better gastrointestinal safety profile to improve compliance of Alzheimer’s disease patients and therefore brings clinical benefits. Patent in regard to use of ZUNVEYL has already been granted in China.

About Alzheimer’s Disease

Alzheimer’s disease is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive decline in memory and other cognitive functions, among which some of the patients will progress to dementia. Dementia is a kind of syndrome with acquired cognitive function impairment as the core symptom, and can lead to the reduction of patients’ daily living, learning, working and social interaction ability. Alzheimer dementia accounts for 50% to 70% of all types of dementia[3,4]. According to the epidemiological study results published in the Lancet Public Health[5], there are about 9.83 million patients with Alzheimer dementia in China, of which 7.93 million are mild-to-moderate[6]. With the intensifying aging trend, the number of patients and the consequent disease burden will further increase in the future.

Currently the clinical treatment of Alzheimer’s disease can be categorized as improving cognitive symptoms and decelerating disease progression[7], and AChEI belongs to the former. According to the Research Report on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Alzheimer’s disease Patients in China[8], the high incidence of side effects is one of the major pain points for existing drugs for Alzheimer’s disease, and drug intolerance is one of the challenges in current treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Tolerability affects therapy adherence, with data showing that 55% of Alzheimer’s disease patients discontinue their medication after one year, mainly due to GI side effects and insomnia. Medication discontinuation can cause risk to patients themselves, and dissatisfaction and burden among patient’s family, physicians, and caregivers[9]. Therefore, Alzheimer’s disease patients still have an urgent need for safer therapies.

On 8 January 2025, the Group through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a License, Collaboration and Distribution Agreement (the “Agreement”)  with Alpha Cognition Inc. (“Alpha”) of the improved new drug ZUNVEYL for the treatment of mild-to-moderate dementia of the Alzheimer’s type. In accordance with the Agreement, the Group is entitled to an exclusive right to develop, register, manufacture, import, export and commercialize the Product in Asia (excluding Japan and the Middle East region), Australia and New Zealand (the “Territory”), Alpha reserves the right to manufacture and supply in the Territory. The term of cooperation commences on the effective date of the Agreement and extends for twenty years (the “Initial Term”), it may be automatically renewed every five years upon the expiration of the Initial Term unless terminated by notice from either party.

Around six months after obtaining the above rights of ZUNVEYL, the Group promptly submitted the NDA in China, demonstrating its efficient allocation of resources and robust capabilities in registration promotion. ZUNVEYL will further diversify the Group’s innovative drug product matrix and enhance the Group’s comprehensive competitiveness. The Product will synergize with the Group’s various central nervous system products including the innovative drug VALTOCO (diazepam nasal spray) and the original brand drug Deanxit (flupentixol and melitracen tablets) on sale and the innovative drug Y-3 for Injection under development in terms of expert network and market resources. Relying on the Group’s successful commercialization experience and compliant and efficient commercialization system, if ZUNVEYL is approved for marketing, it will bring a new drug option for the treatment of cognitive impairment in Chinese Alzheimer’s disease patients, meeting the clinical need for drugs of both efficacy and safety, improving disease diagnosis and treatment practices, thereby benefiting patients. The Product is expected to have a positive impact on the Group’s financial results.

Viking HVAC Expands Commercial Services in Phoenix Valley

Published

on

Viking Heating & Air Conditioning, a trusted family-owned HVAC contractor based in Chandler, Arizona, announces the significant expansion of its commercial HVAC services throughout the Phoenix Metro Valley.

Chandler, Arizona, United States, 8th Oct 2025 – Viking Heating & Air Conditioning, a trusted family-owned HVAC contractor serving the Phoenix Metro Valley since 2016, announces the significant expansion of its commercial HVAC services to meet growing demand from businesses throughout Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Phoenix, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, and Tempe.

The expansion positions Viking to serve a broader range of commercial clients, from small office buildings and retail spaces to restaurants, healthcare facilities, and large industrial operations requiring comprehensive heating, cooling, and ventilation solutions.

“We’ve built our reputation on honest service, transparent pricing, and exceptional customer care in the residential market,” said the Viking HVAC team. “Now we’re bringing that same commitment to businesses throughout the Phoenix Valley. Commercial clients deserve the same level of integrity and expertise that has made us a trusted name among homeowners.”

Comprehensive Commercial HVAC Solutions

Viking’s expanded commercial ventilation and air quality services address the unique challenges businesses face in Arizona’s extreme climate. The company now offers complete commercial solutions including:

  • Commercial AC Installation & Replacement: Custom design and installation for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and industrial facilities
  • 24/7 Commercial Emergency Repair: Rapid response teams available around the clock to minimize business disruption
  • Preventative Maintenance Programs: Customized maintenance plans designed to protect HVAC investments and prevent costly breakdowns
  • Commercial Air Purification: Advanced filtration systems for healthcare, hospitality, and food service industries
  • Commercial Kitchen Ventilation: Specialized solutions for restaurants and food preparation facilities
  • Energy Efficiency Consulting: Expert analysis to reduce operational costs and improve system performance
  • Building Automation Integration: Smart building controls and monitoring systems

Understanding Commercial HVAC Complexity

Commercial HVAC systems differ significantly from residential units in both scale and operational demands. These systems must handle larger spaces, variable occupancy loads, and diverse requirements while maintaining consistent performance throughout demanding schedules.

“Commercial businesses in the Phoenix Valley face unique challenges,” explained Viking’s technical team. “When temperatures exceed 115°F for months on end, commercial HVAC systems work at maximum capacity. One system failure can disrupt business operations, impact customer experience, and cost thousands in lost revenue.”

Modern commercial systems integrate multiple components including rooftop units, chillers, boilers, air handlers, and sophisticated control systems. Building automation systems now control most commercial operations, monitoring temperature zones and adjusting performance based on occupancy patterns and environmental conditions.

Preventive Maintenance as Business Protection

Viking’s commercial expansion emphasizes preventive maintenance as the foundation of system reliability. The company’s comprehensive maintenance programs prevent minor issues from developing into major failures that disrupt business operations.

“Commercial HVAC represents 40-60% of most businesses’ energy consumption,” noted Viking’s service managers. “Proper maintenance can reduce these costs by 15-20% while preventing emergency breakdowns during peak summer months when repairs are most expensive and disruptive.”

Viking’s preventive maintenance programs include:

  • Customized filter replacement schedules based on environmental conditions and usage patterns
  • Professional coil cleaning to maintain optimal heat transfer efficiency
  • Belt inspection and adjustment to prevent unexpected failures
  • Refrigerant level checks to ensure adequate cooling capacity
  • Ductwork inspection to identify efficiency-reducing leaks
  • Control system calibration for accurate temperature management
  • Comprehensive system documentation and performance tracking

Energy Efficiency Focus Reduces Operating Costs

Energy efficiency optimization forms a cornerstone of Viking’s commercial services. The company helps businesses reduce operational expenses through smart scheduling, zone control systems, and strategic equipment upgrades.

“We’ve seen businesses reduce energy consumption by 20-30% through optimized scheduling and zone control,” explained Viking’s efficiency specialists. “When you’re only conditioning occupied areas and running systems during actual business hours, the savings add up quickly.”

Viking’s energy efficiency services include:

  • Occupancy-based scheduling to eliminate unnecessary operation
  • Zone control implementation for large facilities
  • Thermostat and sensor calibration to prevent overcooling
  • High-efficiency equipment recommendations during replacement cycles
  • Utility rebate program navigation to offset upgrade costs
  • Energy usage analysis and reporting

Indoor Air Quality Management

Commercial indoor air quality has gained increased attention as businesses recognize its impact on employee productivity and customer comfort. Viking’s expanded services include comprehensive ventilation solutions that ensure compliance with industry standards while optimizing energy efficiency.

“Different business types have specific ventilation requirements,” noted Viking’s air quality specialists. “Restaurants need different solutions than healthcare facilities or office buildings. Our team understands these requirements and designs systems that meet both regulatory standards and operational needs.”

Viking’s air quality services address humidity control to prevent mold growth and protect sensitive equipment, advanced filtration to remove particulates and allergens, and proper ventilation to maintain fresh air circulation throughout commercial spaces.

Emergency Preparedness and 24/7 Response

Understanding that HVAC failures can severely impact business operations, Viking offers 24/7 emergency commercial services with priority response for maintenance program members.

“When a restaurant’s AC fails during lunch rush or an office building loses cooling on a 115-degree day, every minute counts,” emphasized Viking’s emergency response team. “Our commercial clients get priority response because we understand the financial impact of HVAC downtime.”

Viking’s emergency services include:

  • Around-the-clock availability for critical failures
  • Rapid diagnosis using advanced diagnostic equipment
  • Well-stocked service vehicles for same-visit repairs
  • Temporary cooling solutions during extended repairs
  • Emergency system monitoring and alerts

Technology Integration and Smart Solutions

Viking’s commercial services leverage modern building automation technology to provide unprecedented control and monitoring capabilities. The company offers integration with building management systems, predictive maintenance technologies, and energy management platforms.

“Smart building technology allows businesses to monitor system performance in real-time, identify developing problems before they cause failures, and optimize energy usage based on actual occupancy patterns,” explained Viking’s technology specialists. “These systems provide detailed analytics that support data-driven maintenance and operational decisions.”

Serving Diverse Commercial Industries

Viking’s expanded commercial services support businesses across multiple industries throughout the Phoenix Valley:

  • Restaurants and Food Service: Kitchen ventilation, dining area comfort control, and code-compliant installations
  • Retail Spaces: Customer comfort optimization and energy-efficient solutions
  • Office Buildings: Zone-based climate control and air quality management
  • Healthcare Facilities: Precise environmental control and air purification
  • Manufacturing and Warehouses: Industrial-scale cooling and ventilation
  • Hospitality: Guest comfort and energy efficiency optimization

  • 100% Customer Satisfaction Guarantee: Standing behind every installation and repair
  • Licensed, Bonded & Insured: Professional credentials and comprehensive insurance

X1 EcoChain Announces $5M Grants and Galxe Starboard Community Program

Published

on

X1 EcoChain, the world’s first sustainable DePIN Layer-1 blockchain, is unveiling two initiatives aimed at strengthening both its technical foundation and global community: a $5 million Grant Program for developers and Galxe Starboard, a contributor rewards campaign worth $100,000.

Builder Grants: $5 Million to Drive Web4 Innovation

X1 EcoChain is investing directly into its ecosystem through a $5M grant initiative designed to accelerate real-world adoption of decentralized technologies. The program is open to builders working on projects in DePIN, DeFi, decentralized storage, computing, digital identity, gaming, and metaverse applications.

  • Grant awards: $25,000 – $400,000
  • Timeline: 90–120 days per project
  • Core requirements: scalable solutions, EVM compatibility, robust design

Unlike comparable funding efforts by other blockchains, this program emphasizes ultra-efficient, household-powered decentralization. X1Nodes — consuming only 3 Wh of energy — are already deployed across 65+ countries, forming the backbone of a truly distributed infrastructure.

Priority development areas include:

  • Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN)
  • Mobile and payment innovations
  • DeFi solutions with real utility
  • dApps for storage and computation
  • Trust, reputation, and identity systems
  • SDKs and tools for faster developer onboarding

Galxe Starboard: $100K for Community Impact

Decentralization is not only about technology — it is powered by people. With Galxe Starboard, X1 EcoChain is allocating $100,000 in X1 Coins to recognize contributors who expand the ecosystem through knowledge, creativity, and influence.

Season 1 (September 25 – November 25, 2025):

  • Rewards: $50,000 in X1 Coins
  • Beneficiaries: 200 top-ranked contributors
  • Criteria: merit-based, rewarding impact rather than luck

How to earn points:

  • Publish explainers, deep dives, and thought pieces
  • Create engaging visuals — infographics, memes, videos
  • Share validator perspectives and ecosystem insights
  • Drive meaningful conversations and educational outreach

Every authentic contribution strengthens the network, and those who add the most value rise on the leaderboard.

Why It Matters

Most blockchain networks still depend on centralized, energy-intensive data centers. X1 EcoChain offers a radically different approach: a network sustained by plug-and-play nodes using less power than an LED bulb. This model expands access to anyone, anywhere, while remaining environmentally responsible.

Building the Web4 Era

By combining a $5M builder program with a $100K community campaign, X1 EcoChain is advancing both sides of its ecosystem — infrastructure and people. This dual-track strategy underlines the project’s vision: a global, green, community-powered blockchain that moves beyond the limitations of servers and centralized hardware.

About X1 EcoChain

X1 EcoChain is the first decentralized and eco-friendly Layer-1 blockchain running on 3 Wh X1Nodes spread across 65+ countries. Operating on a Proof-of-Authority model, it provides scalability, security, and low-cost transactions while supporting:

  • EVM-compatible smart contracts
  • Cross-chain connectivity
  • Token generation tools
  • Comprehensive developer SDKs

With over 6,000 nodes online and a rapidly expanding ecosystem, X1 EcoChain is proving that blockchain can be lightweight, accessible, and truly decentralized.
