TH MEDICAL-B (02697.HK): Liver perfusion study makes progress

On 12 October 2026, TH MEDICAL-B (02697.HK) said its organ perfusion system supported six gene-edited pig liver experiments for up to 144 hours, a world record.
Key Highlights:
  • The experiments set a record of up to 144 hours of stable liver perfusion support, with all six cases exceeding 72 hours.
  • The study combined 8-gene-edited medical donor pig livers developed by Yunnan Agricultural University with the Company's organ perfusion system.

NewTimeSpace News: On 12 October 2026, Guangdong True Health Medical Technology Development Co., Ltd. (02697.HK) announced that, using its self-developed organ perfusion system, it completed six preclinical extracorporeal cross-perfusion experiments on gene-edited pig livers supporting non-human primate models of acute liver failure.

Conducted with Yunnan Agricultural University, Kunming First People's Hospital and the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, the experiments set a record of up to 144 hours of stable liver perfusion support, with all six cases exceeding 72 hours.

Vital signs were stable, bile secretion continuous and core biochemical indicators stable, with no hyperacute or acute rejection injury, using 8-gene-edited medical donor pig livers from Yunnan Agricultural University. The system is a modular organ medical device platform supporting multi-organ normothermic perfusion preservation and extracorporeal life support research.
