Discovering and characterizing novel drug candidates for preclinical development depends on innovative and reliable science. Our unique combination of integrated, multidisciplinary drug discovery expertise and unparalleled scope of capabilities in targets, platforms, and therapeutic areas allow us to deliver depth and breadth in science with data and insight you can trust to progress your drug discovery programs.

Integrated Drug Discovery

Time to clinic can be reduced by one year with an integrated drug discovery approach, whereby target discovery, hit id, hit-to-lead, lead optimization, safety, and toxicology is managed by the same project team.

Pharmacology Studies

In vitro to in vivo translation is difficult, costly, and often fails. Advance your discovery research with our translationally focused approach across a range of therapeutic areas including Oncology, Neuroscience & Immunology.

Screening and Profiling Assays

From target validation to lead identification and optimization, the right combination of biochemical and cell-based assays progresses translational success.

Chemistry

Discovery chemists guide key decisions by considering factors such as client intellectual property (IP) generation, compound stability for in vivo studies, solubility and other poor property issues, weak exposure in an animal, and off-target selectivity.

Pharmaceutical Sciences and Formulation

Generating a thorough pharmaceutical sciences data package provides crucial information to guide the selection of more robust candidates and to inform an efficient formulation strategy for preclinical studies.

DMPK/ADME

Leverage our comprehensive laboratory services such as DMPK/ADME, bioanalytical services, biomarker testing, immunology testing, formulation development, and clinical laboratory support.
