科大管理層與山東省藥監局代表團就生物醫藥產業發展、成果轉化和人才培育等方面作交流。

香港科技大學(科大)近日與山東兩大醫藥上市公司:綠葉製藥集團(綠葉製藥)與博安生物技術股份有限公司(博安生物)簽署合作協議,共同推動生物醫藥領域的前沿協作、成果轉化及人才培育,以支持科大發展醫療科技及申辦「香港生命健康研發院」等策略舉措。

深化前沿醫藥研究及人才培育合作

綠葉製藥是專注於創新藥物研發的領先中國醫藥企業,近年於中國內地、歐美、日本等主要醫藥市場成功上市13款新藥,在中樞神經系統(CNS)治療領域居領先地位。其子公司博安生物則是一家全面綜合性生物製藥公司,特別聚焦研發腫瘤、自身免疫、眼科和代謝疾病新藥及治療方法。根據協議內容,科大將與兩所企業就臨床前及臨床研究、前沿科學領域探索、人才培訓及交流和科研成果産業化等範疇展開深度協作。

其中,科大與博安生物將特別聚焦開發新型抗癌藥物和癌症新療法;與綠葉製藥則會集中研究神經科學與中樞神經系統疾病的新療法,以及先進藥物遞釋系統。此外,兩家企業亦將支持科大培育醫藥創新領域人才,為學生提供研究和實踐的產業基地,並提供相關科研技術落地應用平台。 

科大副校長(研究及發展)鄭光廷教授樂見與兩間公司達成多領域合作,他表示:「科大一直致力推動科研成果產業化,積極搭建從實驗室走向市場的完善產業鏈。我們長期深耕生物醫藥領域的創新研究,近年更積極拓展醫療創新合作網絡。我們期待,透過結合AI與生物醫學的交叉優勢,科大可與兩家企業攜手協作,進一步推高產業化能力,並共同探索智能藥物開發、數據驅動的臨床研究等前沿方向,加速創新成果落地轉化,為全球帶來更精準、高效的醫療方案。」

促醫藥領域産學研一體化

綠葉製藥集團執行主席劉殿波先生表示:「一直以來,集團秉承『專業技術服務於人類健康』的使命,依託先進藥物遞釋系統全國重點實驗室,聚焦CNS等治療領域開展創新藥的研究與開發。我們很高興與科大達成戰略合作,期待雙方通過『產學研一體化』的深度融合,充分發揮各自在科研資源和創新成果產業化方面的優勢,共同加速創新成果轉化,尤其在CNS領域推動更多新療法的研究與臨床應用,服務於廣大患者極待滿足的醫療需求。」 

博安生物首席执行官兼董事会主席姜華女士表示:「在全球生物科技加速迭代、健康需求持續升級的背景下,『產學研協同』已成為推動醫藥創新的重要力量。此次與科大達成戰略合作,雙方將結合各自在基礎科學研究與創新抗體開發平台的優勢,圍繞生物藥開發的新靶點、新技術及臨床研究與轉化等方面構建深度融合的創新生態。期待雙方的緊密協作,為全球患者帶來突破性的治療方案。」 

近年來,科大積極推動創新醫療科技發展。自2024年初宣佈有意籌辦第三所醫學院以來,科大一直積極拓展合作網絡,至今已與超過20所海內外領先醫學院及醫療機構簽訂協議,涵蓋香港、大灣區、北京、長三角、華中地區、英國及美國等地。此外,科大亦正積極響應政府籌設「香港生命健康研發院」的舉措,期望可繼續發揮自身優勢,推動醫學科技領域的突破性進展,促進科研成果向臨床應用的高效轉化,裨益社會。
