PARIS, Oct 16, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Owkin today announces the launch of K Pro, its co-pilot bringing advanced agentic AI to biomedical research and drug development. K Pro helps pharmaceutical companies and biotechs make smarter decisions across the discovery and development pipeline, increase clinical success rates, and deliver decision-grade, data-driven biological insights fast enough to change program trajectories.Owkin K ProOwkin K Pro - the Agentic AI Co-Pilot for BiopharmaBuilt on a decade of Owkin's AI innovation and in close collaboration with leading academic and industry partners, K Pro is a scientist-first co-pilot, accessible to both researchers and executives. Through natural language interaction, users can ask complex biological questions and receive actionable, clinically relevant answers, unifying fragmented workflows into an insight-driven research experience.At its core, K Pro integrates Owkin Zero, a fine-tuned biological LLM that performs biological reasoning with higher performance than other leading LLMs (read the full paper). Leveraging high-quality, multimodal biomedical datasets, K Pro gives researchers access to one of the deepest, curated, AI-ready multimodal oncology datasets available (including MOSAIC). Biopharma and academic clients can securely upload their proprietary datasets to leverage K Pro's advanced AI reasoning and data analysis.Thomas Clozel, MD, Owkin Co-founder and CEO, said: "K Pro brings us closer to intelligence that evolves with the complexity of biology. By combining advanced biological reasoning with an agentic co-pilot architecture, it represents a key step towards our mission of achieving Biological Artificial Super Intelligence (BASI), AI capable of modelling and engineering biology beyond what humans are capable of to deliver transformative therapies to patients faster."K Pro has already accelerated internal drug target identification by 70% (from 12+ months to 3 months); built an IND-ready asset positioning strategy in hours instead of months of traditional analysis; and written a specialist review in one day, which was later published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal.K Pro builds upon Owkin's proven approach to agentic AI biomedical discovery, validated through collaborations with leading pharmaceutical companies including AstraZeneca, Bristol Myers Squibb and Sanofi.Ben Mellows, managing director at the biotech company Micregen, used Owkin K to formulate his investor pitch and shared his experience: "We wanted to get our product pitch across to investors. That process could take weeks to work through with all of our experts, but Owkin K really helped. It assimilated all the information we provided evidencing how our regenerative stem cell-derived platform and products could have a major impact on healthcare and delivered a clear story tailored to investors from different backgrounds. The literature set is huge. I would say the task would have been nearly impossible to achieve at the scale that Owkin K handled in just a few work sessions."Owkin's AI has already delivered results for pharmaceutical clients, including: preventing Phase 2 clinical trial futility by identifying high-risk combination therapy populations; discovering new multimodal disease endotypes; reducing trial duration by three years (35%) by identifying the right patient segment to inform enrolment and identifying novel oncology targets.About Owkin:Owkin is an AI company on a mission to solve the complexity of biology. It is building the first Biology Super Intelligence (BASI) by combining powerful biological large language models, multimodal patient data, and agentic software. At the heart of this system is Owkin K, an AI co-pilot and its new LLM finetuned on biology called Owkin Zero, used by researchers, clinicians, and drug developers to better understand biology, validate scientific hypotheses, and deliver better diagnostics and therapies faster.About the State of Agentic AI in Biopharma Report:To ensure K Pro addresses the real-world challenges facing pharma, Owkin partnered with STAT Brand Studio to produce the State of the Nation report, surveying over 200 pharma executives (full report here). Nearly half of respondents identified overcoming data challenges as the area where agentic AI could deliver the greatest value. Early discovery, clinical trial optimisation, and translational research were also highlighted as top priorities, underscoring the immediate need for agentic AI solutions that translate complex biomedical data into actionable insights.Contact InformationAlistair JenningsMarketing Director: Contentalistair.jennings@owkin.com+447983972126SOURCE: Owkin Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, Oct 15, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Standard Chartered and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) jointly released the latest Standard Chartered Greater Bay Area Business Confidence Index (GBAI). The latest quarterly survey showed a broad-based recovery in business confidence in the third quarter towards current business performance and business outlook, likely supported by reduced external uncertainty following the extension of the US-China trade truce. The Q3 GBAI indices rose to multi-year high levels. The “current performance” index for business activities edged up to 54.7 from 53.1 in Q2, while the “expectations” index rose to 55.7 from 52 in Q2, marking a four-year and two-year high respectively.During the survey period of early August to early September, though the US’ reciprocal tariffs came into effect, the US extended the trade truce with China by another 90 days to November and reached multiple trade agreements with major trading partners.Amid the constructive dialogue between China and the US, the tariff uncertainty diminished and the overall external environment became relatively stable, supporting a quarter-on-quarter recovery in business sentiment.Almost all the “current performance” and “expectations” sub-indices rebounded. For “current performance”, six of the eight index components saw quarter-on-quarter improvement, led by a sharp 8pts increase in “new orders” (57.5 in Q3 from 49.5 in Q2) and 4.1pts increase in “prices of finished goods/services” (58.8 in Q3 from 54.7 in Q2).The positivism in business outlook was more noticeable with all “expectations” sub-indices staying well above the neutral mark. “Production/sales” saw the strongest rebound (+5.3pts) among the eight main sub-indices, followed by “financing scale” (+4.8pts), “fixed asset investment” (+4.2pts) and “profit” (+3.9pts).Irina Fan, Director of Research, HKTDC, said: “Across GBA cities, nearly all ‘current performance’ and ‘expectations’ rose quarter-on-quarter. In particular, Hong Kong saw the strongest rise in confidence among all cities, with the ‘current performance’ and ‘expectations’ sub-indices edging up a respective 8.3 pts and 7.3 pts to 52.2 and 53.6 in the quarter, underpinned by the continued trade frontloading and robust financial activities.”Hunter Chan, Economist, Greater China, Standard Chartered, said: “The survey findings are in line with the positivism we have seen across the markets in the third quarter following the extension of US-China trade truce and expectation of continued dialogue between the two countries during the survey period. However, the persisted trade uncertainty may hold back the business sentiment again. With increasing external uncertainties and the competition challenges in the Chinese Mainland, we believe the trend of diversification will continue. It is consistent with the findings that exploring overseas markets (24.5%) remains one of the strategies that GBA corporates are adopting to mitigate the potential risks.”On the other hand, there has been increasing discussion and concern on “anti-involution”. The survey also examined the impact of excessive competition among businesses and how GBA companies tackle those challenges.Most of the respondents (63.5%) indicated that they had not been affected by excessive domestic competition, while 3.1% of respondents said they benefited from it. About 29% reported a moderate impact and the remaining 5% indicated a significant impact.Among those businesses affected by involution, over 70% saw a negative impact on profit and sales, while only around 40% indicated disruptions to hiring and investment.The companies appear to be adopting multiple strategies to address the challenges from involution, including brand building and marketing (36.3%), cost control / inventory management (35.6%) and providing value-added services (29.7%).About the GBAIThe GBAI is the first forward-looking quarterly survey in the market that looks at the business sentiment and synergistic effects in cities and industries across the GBA. It is compiled based on a survey of more than 1,000 companies in the GBA covering the manufacturing and trading, retail and wholesale, financial services, professional services and innovation and technology sectors. The index enables investors and businesses to better understand the current business climate, gauge future performance prospects and formulate their market strategies for the GBA.Related materialsHKTDC Research: https://research.hktdc.com/en/article/MjE0MTkwOTU3MAReport and photos download: http://bit.ly/4oiGQDUHunter Chan (left), Economist, Greater China, Standard Chartered, and Irina Fan (right), Director of Research, HKTDC, announced the latest GBA Business Confidence Index (GBAI) on 15 October 2025. Hunter Chan (right), Economist, Greater China, Standard Chartered shared the latest findings from thematic questions on “involution”, Irina Fan (right), Director of Research, HKTDC, announced the highlights of the quarterly survey.Media enquiriesCorporate Affairs DepartmentStandard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited Flora Chiu Tel: (852) 3843 2285 Email: flora.chiu@sc.com   Communications & Public Affairs DepartmentHKTDC Katy WongClayton Lauw    Tel: (852) 2584 4524Tel: (852) 2584 4472Email: katy.ky.wong@hktdc.orgEmail: clayton.y.lauw@hktdc.orgAbout Standard CharteredWe are a leading international banking group, with a presence in 54 of the world’s most dynamic markets.

SAN DIEGO, Oct 14, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) and South Korea industry leader Hanwha Aerospace signed an agreement on October 14 to partner in development of the Gray Eagle® Short Takeoff and Landing (GE STOL) unmanned aircraft system (UAS). This landmark agreement marks the beginning of a new phase in U.S.-Korea defense cooperation, extending beyond traditional alliance structures to deliver next-generation, runway-independent UAS solutions that maximize commanders' options in the face of evolving mission demands.The deal marks the beginning of a co-development and co-production program between GA-ASI and Hanwha, with work set to begin immediately. The GE STOL will be offered to a worldwide customer base, including South Korea Ministry of Defense and the United States War Department.Under the agreement, the two companies will design and build a production representative GE STOL. The maiden flight is scheduled for 2027 and first delivery to customers in 2028. With a GA-ASI-funded prototype already flying, the program has demonstrated its ability to accelerate from development to delivery. By leveraging the trusted Gray Eagle foundation and forward-leaning investments, the partnership offers the fastest path with lowest risk to operational capability. GA-ASI and Hanwha Aerospace will work closely throughout the design phase and establish a production facility in South Korea for final assembly and manufacturing of the GE STOL, with GA-ASI handling the final integration. GA-ASI will continue to produce its other Gray Eagle models in San Diego."GA-ASI and Hanwha are committed to investing in this project and building development and production capabilities in South Korea," said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. "We'll be leveraging the expertise of both companies to quickly bring the Gray Eagle STOL to global customers."Gray Eagle STOL is the only medium-altitude, long-endurance UAS in its class to offer true runway independence by operating from semi-improved surfaces, including dirt roads, open fields, beaches, and parking lots. This exponentially increases its operational employment by providing multi-mission capability for Reconnaissance, Surveillance, and Target Acquisition (RSTA), counter UAS, and other missions including Manned-Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T) while leveraging GE STOL's modular open systems approach.Using the GE STOL demonstrator, called Mojave, GA-ASI recorded several first-of-their-kind aviation milestones, including a 2024 demonstration when GA-ASI and Hanwha flew Mojave from the South Korean Navy's amphibious landing ship ROKS Dokdo (LPH-6111) as it was underway at sea off the coast of Pohang, South Korea. It has also been launched and recovered aboard the British aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales (2023), performed live-fire testing at Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona (2024), and performed dirt strip operations (2023) underscoring GA-ASI's advances in runway independence and operational flexibility.The initiative is part of Hanwha's strategic investment plan in its UAS business. This commitment, together with GA-ASI's continued focus on UAS, demonstrates both companies' strategy to invest ahead of customer demand, reducing risk and lowering lifecycle costs through international cost-sharing, and ensuring timely delivery of next-generation UAS solutions in Korea and abroad."Jointly producing GE STOL in South Korea and the U.S. will create jobs and help Hanwha secure talent in related fields as well as foster our domestic (Korean) UAS industry ecosystem. Hanwha is poised to become a comprehensive UAS company capable of executing everything from design to production and maintenance based on our capabilities, which span from fighter jet engines to radar and avionics equipment," said Mr. Jae-il Son, President and CEO of Hanwha Aerospace.Together, GA-ASI and Hanwha are delivering a low-risk, investment-backed, and innovation-driven UAS solution that provides commanders unmatched flexibility faster and at lower cost.About GA-ASIGeneral Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc., is the world's foremost builder of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS).

Sole funded activities commenced at the wholly owned Cobar Basin precious-base metals Condobolin projectAirborne geophysical survey mobilised across the historic Condobolin Mineral Field Preparations for diamond drilling at the Meritilga target testing extensions to the existing gold-silver-base metals systemReview commenced assessing the potential for alluvial gold based on prior drillingFurther consolidation of the wider district increasing the foothold of the Condobolin project by a thirdMelbourne, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 14, 2025) - Gold-copper explorer and hybrid project generator Kincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) (Kincora or the Company) is pleased to announce that an airborne electro-magnetic (AEM) geophysical survey covering approximately 155km2 has been mobilized at the Condobolin project, located in the southern end of the Cobar Basin. Ahead of this survey, Kincora has pegged the adjacent open ground to expand the total project size by 90km2.The AEM survey is expected to generate new near surface targets and refine existing mineralized systems located under shallow post mineral cover, as well as refine potential deeper source feeder zones. These include the Meritilga target where preparations have commenced for a high impact drilling program to test the down dip and on strike extensions of the existing system which hosts broad near surface gold-silver-base metal mineralisation with ore grade intervals (including 4m @ 20g/t gold and 30.2g/t silver from 75m 1).In light of near record Australian gold and silver prices, Kincora has commenced a review of prior encouraging drilling results within a paleochannel at the Meritilga target, which has including up to 28.4g/t gold in gravels (from 4m) and 3.99g/t gold in basement (from 28m) 2.John Holliday, Technical Committee chair, and Peter Leaman, VP of Exploration, commented,"We are pleased to commence exploration at our wholly owned Condobolin project at a time of significant exploration, development and corporate success in the southern and lesser explored section of the Cobar Basin. Kincora has a well-planned strategy to explore the extensions of the Condobolin Mineral Field, which has a substantial mining history for high grade gold, silver and base metals. The project is well located to existing infrastructure, is easy to explore and has very limited effective exploration below the shallow weathering profile. The extent of historical mining, and geochemical and geophysical anomalies, indicate excellent potential for multiple new discoveries. We are looking to systematically use exploration techniques that have already yielded the Meritilga discovery and many new recent discoveries in the north of the district at similar and earlier stage profile projects. The designed multi-phase campaign is a capital efficient value add strategy at a project that has the potential to excite in the current very strong precious metals environment."Figure 1: Kincora has seven major project groups located in Central West NSW, six porphyry and one Cobar style mineral system, all located in world-class geological terrains which host Tier-1 mines The Condobolin project is in the southern and lesser explored section of the Cobar BasinTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/270304_18516798242cc817_001full.jpgCOBAR DISTRICTThe Cobar Basin has a 150-year history of high-grade, long-life mining and is an important supplier of critical and precious metals. The region benefits from established infrastructure and favourable ESG considerations with significant scope for processing and mining efficiencies, supporting potential consolidation.The district has recently seen several significant new discoveries utilising modern exploration techniques in lesser explored regions (eg Federation, Achilles, Mallee Bull, Southern Nights and Wagga Tank) and emerging corporate activity (eg Harmony's A$1.6 billion takeover for MAC Copper (MAC.ASX) and Kingston Resources (KSN.ASX) recently receiving A$50 million cash for the first tranche of its divestment of its PNG Misima project).CONDOBOLIN PROJECTThe project and regional profiles' support the Condobolin project being an asset that a junior explorer such as Kincora can add significant value to. A multi-phase exploration campaign of regional scale exploration and target specific drilling has commenced and is fully funded following the Company's July 2025 non-brokered private placement (C$4m raising with a 12-month hold period).The Condobolin project was historically the focus of up to 25 informal open pit operations (peak late 1800's-early 1900's), with mining impacted by the water table and exploration by the weathering profile. The mineral field has not been effectively explored below the weathered zone (~30m).Very limited modern exploration has taken with initial activities by Clancy Exploration (Clancy, now RareX Limited) yielding encouraging results at all five prospects drilled (2011-13), including a virgin high-grade gold discovery at the Meritilga Prospect.More recently within the immediate district, Kingston Resources (ASX: KSN) has significantly expanded the resources and restarted hard rock mining at the Mineral Hill mine, Talisman Mining (ASX: TLM) has recent new success at its Rip N Tear and Durnings targets (to both the immediate north and south of Mineral Hill), while Australian Gold and Copper (ASX: AGC) has excited the market with its new potential district scale discovery at its Achilles target located within the south western extension of the Cobar Basin.The Condobolin project is located approximately 40km south from the mill at Mineral Hill and north of the Condobolin town (which is the primary source of employees to Mineral Hill operation who drive through the Condobolin project to work) - see Figure 2.Kincora has consolidated a 100% project ownership and continued to expand our foothold across the near surface potential of the historical Condobolin Mineral Field. The total project size is 297km2 across two adjacent licenses with a new license application (latter 90km2) - see Figure 3.To advance the potential of the wider project and historical mining field, Kincora has mobilised an AEM survey covering over 800 line-kilometres utilising Expert Geophysics Pty Ltd's (Expert Geophysics) TargetEM26 system. Approximately 20% of the wider project is out-sub cropping with the average depth of cover in non-outcropping areas less than 5 metres supporting very easy exploration with surface geology and sampling being an effective, quick and cheap methods - see Figures 3 & 4.AEM surveys have proven to be a highly effective discovery technique in this region significantly contribution in several recent discoveries in the Cobar Basin. The survey is a quick low impact method to provide subsurface structure across the full historic Condobolin Mineral Field with an infill survey across multiple targets, including Meritilga, many of which have significant base metal and gold-silver anomalies - see Figures 3 & 4 overlaying lead anomalism from soil sampling.Figure 2: Regional brownfield and greenfield exploration projects are generating new discoveries and drill targets in a lesser explored but historic mining districtThe Condobolin project is located at the southern end of the Cobar Basin, benefits from existing infrastructure and is near the Mineral Hill mill which is seeking organic and inorganic means to fill existing excess mill capacityTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/270304_image2.jpgThe Meritilga target was a new discovery made by Clancy in 2012 following up a coincident 2km x 2km arsenic-lead-zinc (+gold) geochemical anomaly and K-channel radiometric anomaly over ridges east of the historic mines at Mascotte and west of Potters. The anomalies coincided with key NE-striking structures identified in detailed 3D induced polarization (IP) surveys 1.The gold, silver and base metals system is situated within a lode with high grade lens (ore grade, eg 4m @ 20g/t gold, 30.2 g/t silver from 75m, including 1m @ 62g/t gold, 60g/t silver in hole CORC029) and a lower grade halo. The lode is a consistent body, open up and down dip 1, 3.Land access agreements are in place and the permitting process commenced for an up to 15 diamond drill hole program for 4100 metres testing down dip (up to 350m depth) and strike extensions and the potential for repeat high grade lens and/or a stacked series of lenses.This setting is supported by the last phase of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling by Clancy, the one diamond hole drilled by Kincora in 2023, coupled with a favourable structural setting where the main Meritilga Fault has been cross-cut by N-S trending faults 4.The current working geological model, underpinned by pathfinder zonation and coincident geophysical anomalies, supports the potential for a larger mineralised intrusive source at depth - see Figure 6. The AEM survey is expected to also better advance and refine these concepts.Given shifting in commodity prices, Kincora has commenced a review of prior encouraging very shallow gold drilling results of Clancy. In 2011, twenty Air-Core (AC) holes tested the Tilga paleochannel with several significant hits returned. The best intercept was 1m @ 28.4g/t Au (from 4m, hole COAC012 in the gravels) and 3.99g/t Au (from 28m, hole COAC005 in basement) 2.The average depth of the paleochannel gravels was 7.9m with a potential target area of 2km by 0.5km - see Figure 4. The last review of the alluvial gold potential was undertaken by Clancy when the Australian gold price was approximately A$1500/ounce (versus current spot of almost A$6000/oz). The review by Kincora will explore the potential alternatives, budgets and partnering opportunities available to advance the alluvial (placer) gold potential either concurrent with the wider Condobolin project or as a standalone project.Figure 3: Kincora has increased the size of the total Condobolin project by a third and commenced an airborne geophysical survey across the historic Condobolin Mineral Field The extent of historical mining, existing near surface geochemical and geophysical anomalies provides excellent potential for multiple new discoveries as Kincora implements modern systematic exploration approaches that have already yielded the Meritilga discovery plus many recent discoveries in the north of the district at similar and earlier stage profile projectsTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/270304_image3_550.jpgFigure 4: The extent of historical mining, existing near surface geochemical and geophysical anomalies, coupled with limited modern exploration or exploration below the weathered zone provides excellent potential for multiple new discoveriesSouth-western portion of the Condobolin Project, including the Tilga Paleochannel where prior Clancy drilling supported the potential for alluvial (placer) goldTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/270304_image4.jpgFigure 5: Limited prior modern exploration by Clancy resulted in the Meritilga discovery with follow up drilling planned to test down dip, on strike and the potential for repeat high grade lens and/or a stacked series of lenses.

HONG KONG, Oct 14, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Everest Medicines today announced that the first patient has been enrolled in a global multi-center Phase I clinical trial of its Tumor-Associated Antigen Cancer Vaccine EVM14 at NEXT Oncology Virginia in the United States. Previously, the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for EVM14 has been approved by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in China. EVM14 becomes Everest Medicines’ first internally developed therapeutic mRNA cancer vaccine to receive IND approvals from both China’s NMPA and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).EVM14, an off-the-shelf therapeutic mRNA cancer vaccine, is developed based on Everest Medicines' proprietary mRNA platform. It is formulated with mRNA encoding 5 tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) and is designed to treat various squamous cell carcinomas, including squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sq-NSCLC) and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). In the targeted cancer types, 96% of patients with sq-NSCLC and 97% of patients with HNSCC expressed at least one of the five target genes[1]. TTA vaccines offer distinct advantages, including elimination of HLA screening requirements, off-the-shelf availability, lower production costs versus personalized neoantigen vaccines, and applicability across multiple tumor types.“The cancer burden in China remains substantial. Neither immunotherapy nor targeted therapy can offer long term benefits to cancer patients. EVM14 is designed to treat various squamous cell carcinomas, EVM14’s unique mechanism offers the potential to complement current treatments by enhancing the efficacy via combination therapies and helping delay disease recurrence, aligning with current trends in oncology drug development.” said Professor Lu Shun, the Lead Principal Investigator in China and Director of the Oncology Department at Shanghai Chest Hospital.“The enrollment of the first patient with EVM14 in the United States marks an important achievement in advancing the global clinical development of our in-house mRNA platform.” said Rogers Yongging Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Everest Medicines. “This progress demonstrates Everest's continued efforts to translate technological innovation into clinical practice and our first move advantage in developing next-generation immuno-oncology therapies, including therapeutic mRNA cancer vaccines. EVM14 is Everest's first therapeutic mRNA cancer vaccine to achieve IND approvals in both China and the U.S. The large patient population faces limited options with existing standard-of-care therapies, highlighting an unmet medical need. As a TAA cancer vaccine, EVM14's unique mechanism offers the potential to complement current treatments by enhancing the efficacy via combination therapies and helping delay disease recurrence, offering hope for long-term cancer-free survival. With EVM14 receiving IND approval from China's NMPA, we look forward to this innovative therapy demonstrating promising therapeutic potential in global multicenter clinical trials, bringing more treatment options to patients worldwide and enhance their quality of life.”Everest Medicines' Jiashan manufacturing site released the first GMP clinical trial batch in June 2025. This batch will support the clinical trials of EVM14 in both China and the United States. The clinical centers involved include NEXT Oncology Virginia, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in the U.S., and Shanghai Chest Hospital in China.Leveraging the company's industry-leading mRNA therapeutic cancer vaccine platform and mRNA in vivo CAR-T platform, it is building a globally competitive R&D pipeline. EVM18, the in vivo CAR-T program, has completed multiple non-human primates (NHPs) trials and achieved preclinical proof-of-concept, with first-in-human data expected to initiate by the end of 2025. EVM16, the personalized therapeutic mRNA cancer vaccine, has initiated its first-in-human trial in China, with patient dosing completed. In the investigator-initiated trial (IIT), dose escalation in the low- and mid-dose cohorts has been completed, with encouraging preliminary data observed. EVM15, the immune-modulatory cancer vaccine, has completed preclinical proof of concept and identified its clinical candidate.Looking ahead, Everest Medicines will continue to deepen its “dual-engine” strategy, maintaining a strong focus on advancing innovative drug discovery and development to drive sustainable growth and global expansion. The Company remains committed to delivering innovative therapies to patients, creating long-term value for shareholders, and driving forward with the vision of becoming a leading global biopharmaceutical company.[1] The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Elko County, Nevada--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 13, 2025) - Patriot Critical Minerals ("Patriot" or the "Company") is proud to announce the completion and filing of a Technical Report Summary ("TRS") under U.S. SEC Regulation S-K 1300 for its 100 %-owned MEGA Tungsten Project in Elko County, Nevada.The filing confirms that Patriot controls the largest tungsten resource ever reported under modern U.S. SEC standards, marking a major milestone in the nation's effort to restore control over its critical-mineral supply chains.Prepared by SRK Consulting (U.S.) Inc., the report defines an Inferred Mineral Resource of 21.8 million short tons grading 0.18 % WO₃, containing approximately 78.7 million pounds of tungsten trioxide (WO₃).This achievement establishes Patriot's MEGA Project as a front-runner in the resurgence of American tungsten production.MEGA Project - SK-1300 ReportA Strategic Asset for a New Industrial Era"The MEGA Project represents a turning point for America's critical-mineral independence," said Anthony Paterson, President of Patriot Critical Minerals. "This is one of the most advanced and significant tungsten projects in the Western Hemisphere — and as we move toward Pre-Feasibility and production, we're proving that large-scale, U.S.-based projects can once again compete globally. But to secure that future, the government needs to move with the same urgency the market demands. If we want American metals for American industry, the time to act is now."CEO Brodie Sutherland added, "With more than 85 % of U.S. tungsten currently imported, Patriot's Nevada asset offers a direct pathway to reshoring a metal vital for defense, aerospace, semiconductors, and clean-energy technologies."Investment Highlights:Largest SEC-Compliant Tungsten Resource in the United States - 21.8 M short tons @ 0.18 % WO₃ (~78.7 M lbs contained)Tier-1 Mining Jurisdiction - Road access, grid power, and an experienced Nevada workforceOpen-Pit, Near-Surface Potential - Shallow geometry supports rapid, low-cost advancementNational Security Alignment - Tungsten is a designated critical mineral under the Defense Production ActAdvancing Toward PFS and Production - Engineering, permitting, and federal-program engagement now underwayQualified PersonsBrodie Sutherland, P.Geo, is a "Qualified Person" as such term is defined under National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and has reviewed and approved the technical aspects of this news release.

Potential inaccuracies or biases (which could result from issues in historical methods) have been accounted for in a variety of ways, and any latent uncertainty has been incorporated as a factor in the resource classification. Demonstration of the accuracy of these legacy data remains an opportunity.Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking StatementsThis news release contains forward‐looking statements and forward‐looking information (collectively, "forward‐looking statements") within the meaning of applicable Canadian legislation. Forward‐looking statements are typically identified by words such as: "believes", "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "estimates", "plans", "may", "should", "would", "will", "potential", "scheduled" or variations of such words and phrases and similar expressions, which, by their nature, refer to future events or results that may, could, would, might or will occur or be taken or achieved.All statements in this news release that are not purely historical are forward‐looking statements and include statements regarding beliefs, plans, expectations and orientations regarding the future. Specifically, the forward-looking statements include: that the MEGA tungsten project has geological potential and will reach production; that the mineral resource estimates on the MEGA tungsten project will be realized; that Patriot is uniquely positioned to become one of the only tungsten producers in the United States; Patriot's positioning to deliver a secure, domestic source of tungsten; the strategic value of tungsten to the United States; the market prospects and price stability of tungsten; the Company's plans to advance the MEGA tungsten project, including filing a NI 43-101 technical report and engaging with the U.S. government to align development timelines with critical mineral funding programs, stockpiling strategies, and defense procurement priorities; the Company's planned position to be a supplier of choice in the tungsten market; and the Company's vision to become the go-to name for tungsten. Although the Company believes that such statements are reasonable and reflect expectations of future developments and other factors which management believes to be reasonable and relevant, the Company can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. In making the forward‐looking statements in this news release, the Company has applied several material assumptions, including without limitation, that market fundamentals will support the viability of critical mineral resource exploration, the availability of the financing required for the Company to carry out its planned future activities, the availability of and the ability to retain and attract qualified personnel, and the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. Other factors may also adversely affect the future results or performance of the Company, including general economic, market or business conditions, future prices of minerals, changes in the financial markets and in the demand for minerals, changes in laws, regulations and policies affecting the mineral exploration industry, as well as additional risks that cannot be anticipated at this time. Ongoing labor shortages, inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, the global financial and geopolitical climate, and the conflicts in Ukraine and Palestine and surrounding regions are some additional factors that are affecting current economic conditions and increasing economic uncertainty, which may impact the Company's operating performance, financial position, and future prospects. Collectively, the potential impacts of this economic environment pose risks that are currently indescribable and immeasurable. No assurance can be given that any of the events anticipated by the forward‐looking statements will occur or, if they do occur, what benefits the Company will obtain from them. Readers are cautioned that forward‐looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and, accordingly, are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward‐looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty of such statements. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update such forward‐looking information whether because of new information, future events or otherwise, except as expressly required by applicable law.To view the source version of this press release, please visit https://www.newsfilecorp.com/release/270133 Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
