CK Life Sciences Establishes Sequencio Therapeutics to Advance Therapeutic Cancer Vaccines Development

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 10 March 2026 – CK Life Sciences Int’l., (Holdings) Inc. (“CK Life Sciences” or the “Company”, Stock Code: 0775) today announced the establishment of Sequencio Therapeutics (“Sequencio”), a wholly-owned subsidiary dedicated to advancing the Company’s therapeutic cancer vaccine portfolio.

The Third Pillar of a Strategic Reorganisation

This marks the third pillar of a strategic reorganisation, following transactions involving Nasdaq-listed TransCode Therapeutics (“TransCode”, “RNAZ”) and Dogwood Therapeutics (“Dogwood”, “DWTX”) completed in 2025 and 2024, respectively. Collectively, these developments are intended to accelerate R&D, enhance operational execution, and broaden capital access for pharmaceuticals and diagnostics R&D, positioning CK Life Sciences at the forefront of therapeutic cancer vaccine development.

Sequencio – A Therapeutic Cancer Vaccine R&DPlatform

Sequencio Therapeutics has been established to consolidate CK Life Sciences’ therapeutic cancer vaccine research and development portfolio under a dedicated organisation, reflecting the Company’s strategic focus on this emerging class of cancer immunotherapy. The subsidiary is focused on the development of therapeutic cancer vaccines designed to train a patient’s own immune system to achieve durable, long-term remission with a favourable safety profile, addressing key limitations of current standard-of-care therapies. The establishment of Sequencio supports a long-term vision of shifting cancer treatment paradigms from transient tumour reduction toward sustained, immune-controlled remission, with vaccine discovery and design conducted in-house and development advanced through a combination of internal capabilities and external collaborations.

Sequencio’s preclinical portfolio includes the Company’s investigational cancer vaccines targeting Trophoblast Cell Surface Antigen 2 (TROP2), which has demonstrated robust T-cell immune responses and achieved 100% tumour growth inhibition in preclinical breast and colorectal cancer mouse studies. The portfolio also includes vaccine candidates targeting PRAME (Preferentially Expressed Antigen in Melanoma), PD-L1 (programmed cell death ligand 1), B7-H3 (B7 homolog 3), and Claudin 6.

Dr Melvin Toh, Chief Scientific Officer: A Significant Milestone in Ongoing Commitment to Transforming Cancer Treatment

“The establishment of Sequencio marks a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to transforming cancer treatment,” said Dr Melvin Toh, Chief Scientific Officer at CK Life Sciences. “By consolidating our cancer vaccine research under a dedicated entity, we are establishing a focused platform with the agility and expertise required to drive breakthrough science from the laboratory to the clinic, with the aim of delivering potential benefits to patients.”

Over the past two years, CK Life Sciences has undergone a comprehensive restructuring to maximise the potential of its R&D portfolio, with a view to attracting additional funding from investors. In 2025, the Company’s late-stage melanoma vaccine seviprotimut-L was sold to Nasdaq-listed TransCode in exchange for an equity stake in Transcode. Through the integration of seviprotimut-L into TransCode Therapeutics’ pipeline, the potential synergy between vaccine-driven immunity and RNA-based mechanisms presents an opportunity to explore new approaches to addressing treatment resistance and achieving more durable patient responses.

Separately, in 2024, CK Life Sciences completed a transaction with Dogwood Therapeutics, a Nasdaq-listed company focused on developing new medicines for pain and neuropathy, in which CK Life Sciences holds a majority stake. Dogwood is advancing Halneuron® for chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain, which has demonstrated positive interim Phase 2b results. Dogwood has also secured a global licence to develop an intravenous formulation of SP16 for cancer-related pain.

Both Nasdaq-listed companies are led by experienced scientific and commercial teams, providing greater access to US capital markets and potential strategic partnerships to expedite development. These transactions enable CK Life Sciences’ commercial operations to provide initial and standby funding for its in-house preclinical programmes, now consolidated under Sequencio.

With Sequencio, TransCode and Dogwood, CK Life Sciences now offers an R&D platform with a diversified pipeline of early and late-stage projects targeting substantial unmet medical needs.

Mr Alan Yu, Deputy Chairman: Consider Expanding in an Innovative and Hi-tech Zone like the Northern Metropolis

“By leveraging strategic partnerships, access to public markets, and focused internal development, we are combining the agility of dedicated teams, with the resources needed to advance groundbreaking sciences,” added Mr Alan Yu, Deputy Chairman of CK Life Sciences. “We look forward to delivering these innovative therapies to the patients who need them most. As our R&D projects mature, we may need to consider expanding our R&D facilities in an innovative and hi-tech zone like that of Hong Kong’s Northern Metropolis.”

Yi Yun Movers Rethinks Operations as Moving Industry Evolves

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 10 March 2026 – Yi Yun Movers, a moving company in Singapore, is reassessing its operations as competition intensifies across the moving industry. With services often viewed as interchangeable and prices closely compared, operational efficiency, safety, and coordination are becoming key priorities.

Yi Yun Movers

Competitive Landscape and Market Pressures

Singapore’s storage and moving industry was valued at USD 59.48 billion in 2024. It is projected to grow steadily, reaching USD 100.16 billion by 2033. As demand expands, operators face rising expectations from customers who want clearer quotations, faster responses, careful handling of belongings, and fewer disruptions during moves. These expectations are evolving faster than the industry’s traditional operating models.

“Customers today are more informed and expect clarity and coordination throughout the moving process,” said Liang, Sales Manager of Yi Yun Movers. “Meeting these expectations requires tighter planning and consistent execution, especially in a highly competitive environment.”

Operational Focus Over Marketing Claims

Within this environment, Yi Yun Movers has focused on strengthening its core operations, particularly in areas such as safe handling, flexible scheduling, and end-to-end service coordination. The mover in Singapore provides residential and commercial moving services, along with storage, disposal, and after-hours relocations. These reflect a shift toward accommodating varied customer timelines and operational needs.

Technology as Operational Support, Not Replacement

The moving industry in Singapore is believed to have relatively low service differentiation, making internal efficiency a critical factor. To address this, some firms are beginning to explore how digital tools can support daily operations. Rather than replacing existing workflows, technology is being considered for practical functions, such as route planning, scheduling coordination, and administrative efficiency.

For Yi Yun Movers, this has meant examining how planning and coordination can be tightened without disrupting established on-the-ground processes. The company has taken a cautious approach, focusing on whether digital tools can reduce manual work and improve scheduling accuracy. At the same time, it keeps experienced crews and established handling practices at the centre of operations.

“We’re careful not to introduce changes that add complexity on the ground,” as revealed by Jovi, Operations Manager of Yi Yun Movers. “Any use of digital tools is meant to support planning and coordination, not replace the practical experience of our crews.”

GPS Software for Route Planning and Fleet Management

One of the key digital tools Yi Yun Movers has incorporated is GPS software. This technology helps the company optimise route planning and fleet management by:

  • Providing real-time traffic data
  • Calculating the most efficient routes
  • Tracking vehicles throughout the process

This integration not only ensures faster service delivery but also improves customer communication regarding timeframes. With GPS software, the moving teams can focus on executing their tasks on the ground.

SME Readiness and Incremental Technology Adoption

This measured approach aligns with broader national discussions around small and medium enterprise (SME) readiness for technology adoption. While large-scale automation remains out of reach for many operators, incremental use of digital tools to support planning and coordination is increasingly viewed as necessary to remain competitive without compromising service reliability.

Yi Yun Movers’ experience reflects this wider SME reality. Rather than pursuing large-scale system changes, the company has focused on incremental adjustments that support administrative efficiency and coordination, recognising that readiness varies across teams and that operational continuity remains critical in a service-led business.

Adapting to Evolving Customer Expectations

As relocation activity continues alongside Singapore’s dynamic property and business landscape, operators are navigating tighter margins and higher service expectations. For Yi Yun Movers, the focus remains on maintaining service consistency, careful handling of items, and adapting operations to meet changing customer needs in a highly competitive moving industry.

Looking Ahead

Continued growth in Singapore’s moving and storage sector is shaping how operators manage cost, coordination, and service reliability. With customer expectations evolving alongside broader economic and property trends, operational discipline and adaptability are likely to remain central to how moving firms compete.

Yi Yun Movers intends to refine internal processes and maintain service standards while responding to industry changes pragmatically. This reflects a wider shift among local service providers toward strengthening operational foundations, as the moving industry adapts to a more demanding and competitive environment.

In addition to enhancing route planning and fleet management with GPS software, Yi Yun Movers is exploring the use of AI-Assisted Customer Relationship Management (CRM). By integrating AI-driven CRM tools, Yi Yun Movers aims to automate customer interactions, personalise communication, and improve service delivery.

With these forward-thinking approaches, the company is positioning itself to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving market. This enables its teams to effectively address the evolving needs and expectations of Singapore’s moving and storage sector.
