Medisun launched the “Hong Kong Regenerative Medisun Association”

On May 28, 2018, the Hong Kong Regenerative Medisun Association, which was initiated by representatives from the Hong Kong Regenerative Medisun Industry and academic circles, was formally established under the auspices of the Medisun Medical Group.

Hong Kong Regenerative Medisun Association goals

The Hong Kong Regenerative Medisun Association was founded by experts, scholars, industry representatives and people of insight in the field of regenerative Medisun in Hong Kong and around the world. The purpose of the association is to establish a consensus platform for the regenerative Medisun industry in Hong Kong, promote the development of the regenerative Medisun industry, encourage and promote international cooperation, and propose to the Hong Kong SAR government the recommendations of the regenerative Medisun industry on industry regulations and actively influence industry rules. The establishment and improvement of the company provides effective technical and management advice to the Hong Kong government, Hong Kong public health agencies and companies in the industry.

The first meeting of the Hong Kong Regenerative Medisun Association (May 28, 2018)

On the afternoon of May 28, representatives from Hong Kong’s medical health, regenerative Medisun and biotechnology fields, doctors, pharmacists, chemists and university researchers gathered to discuss and elect the first council of the Hong Kong Regenerative Medisun Association.They read the charter of the association and clarify the duties of the board. At the same time, they have had a heated discussion on the regulatory documents issued by the Hong Kong SAR Government on Advanced Therapy Products. They agreed to regulate the direction of document guidance and proposed a number of issues that need to be clarified, including:

1. Professional qualifications required by the licensee of the Regenerative Medisun and Stem Cell Research and Development Organization;

2. Advanced Therapy Products is regulated by the Pharmacy and Poisons Ordinance (Cap. 138). However, since the production process and user definition of cellular products and pharmaceutical products are different, they should be clarified accordingly;

3. With reference to the requirements of the international GMP/PICS standard, which standard should be achieved in the cell laboratory qualification of existing regenerative Medisun institutions;

4. After the specific regulation is in force, whether there should be a transition period, so that the industry has time to adjust and cooperate;

5. Submit the Advanced Therapy Products comments and submit them to the Hong Kong Department of Health.

About Profectus BioSciences

Profectus BioSciences is a clinical stage vaccine development company focused on developing new vaccines for infectious disease and cancer prevention and treatment. The Profectus vaccine is based primarily on the company’s proprietary VesiculoVax™ and DNA vaccine technology platform. By simply using the VesiculoVax™ vaccine alone, B cells can be rapidly expanded to provide protection against emerging infectious diseases that threaten public health and biodefense mechanisms, such as Ebola, Marburg, Chikungunya, Zika virus, equine encephalitis virus, and respiratory syncytial virus. When VesiculoVax™ is used as a vaccine when the immune system is launched with the best pDNA vaccine, the Vesiculo Vax™-directed vaccine expands the triggered T cells into effector cells, which are ideal for attacking virus-infected cells and cancer. Current projects using the Prime / Boost Vaccine System (PBS Vax™) strategy include hepatitis B virus (HBV), human papillomavirus (HPV), herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) and human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV). Partners and collaborators include UTMB’s Galveston National Laboratory, Yale University, University of Maryland Human Virology Institute, HIV/AIDS Vaccine Immunology Center, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health AIDS Division, Bill And the Melinda Gates Foundation, the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative, the AIDS Vaccine Trial Network and the AIDS Clinical Trial Group.
