18.11.2022 17:29:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
DELBERT Laboratories are proud to announce the acquisition from Noventia Pharma Srl of the European MA of CEPLENE® 0.5mg/0.5ml, solution for injection (histamine dihydrochloride) on September 12, 2022, and strengthens its commitment in hematology-oncology in Europe.
Ceplene® demonstrated a clinical interest in maintenance treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in patients below 60 years of age in first "complete remission" (symptom-free period of disease after initial treatment) in a clinical study published in Blood in 2006 and received orphan drug designation in 2005 1,2,3.
Acute myeloid leukemias are rare genetic diseases. In Europe, the incidence is estimated at 3.7/100,000 new cases per year. The prognosis for AML is unfavourable with a 5-year relative survival rate of 19%4.
DELBERT Laboratories (https://laboratoires-delbert.fr/) is a French pharmaceutical company specialized in the "renewal of essential medicines" frequently affected by marketing termination, stock shortages, particularly in times of crisis.
"We are focused on keeping essential medicines available to patients in 3 therapeutic areas (Antiinfectives, CNS and Oncology), with the mission of maintaining the therapeutic arsenal of doctors and preventing well-balanced patients from changing treatments.The acquisition of Ceplene's® MA in Europe is part of this strategy to maintain essential medicines and make available medicines with clinical benefit in rare diseases," said Eric Fidelin (Head of Strategy & Global Development).
With this acquisition, DELBERT Laboratories strengthens its presence in hematological oncology.

Post-Quantum’s Algorithm - Classic McEliece - Achieves Global ISO Standardization to Protect the World From Quantum Cyber Attack15.7.2026 11:00:00 EEST | Press release
It’s proven that today’s encryption is vulnerable to attack by a sufficiently mature quantum computer running Shor’s algorithm - a catastrophic event commonly known as Q-Day. Even before such a cryptographically relevant quantum computer emerges it is known that adversaries are stealing encrypted data now, which can be decrypted later - also known as Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL). Google’s recent use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to optimise Shor’s algorithm reduces the number of physical qubits required to break today’s encryption, therefore shortening the timeline to Q-Day. This has led prominent experts to estimate today’s encryption may be broken as-soon-as the next three years. It’s against this backdrop that the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) has included the Classic McEliece algorithm as part of its standard for Asymmetric Ciphers (ISO/IEC 18033-2). Organisations from ISO’s 177 member states can now upgrade to Classic McEliece using an international s
Thredd Joins The Visa Agentic Ready Programme, Bringing Agent Network Readiness To Issuers Across Europe, Starting With Zilch15.7.2026 10:00:00 EEST | Press release
Thredd, the AI-first issuer processing platform, today announced it has joined the Visa Agentic Ready programme, enabling issuers across Europe to participate in agent-initiated payments without rebuilding their payments infrastructure. Consumer payments platform Zilch will be among the first issuers on the platform to enable agent-initiated payments for its cardholders. As a processor and enabler, Thredd sits at the trust layer of the payments ecosystem. By joining the programme, Thredd is ready to support Visa and its clients as the market moves into agentic commerce. Agentic commerce introduces a new type of payment initiator: An AI agent acting on a cardholder's behalf. The core payments principles do not change. Cardholder permission, issuer approval, authentication and fraud monitoring all still apply. What changes is how trust is established and enforced at the point an agent transacts. Taking a Zilch customer as an example, a cardholder might ask an AI agent to find a product w
