Medical Research Council Technology (MRCT) and Pharmidex announced that Pharmidex will provide all in vivo ADME/PK drug discovery support to the MRCT in 2010.
Dr Andy Merritt, Associate Director of Chemistry at MRCT’s Centre for Therapeutics Discovery said, “As we rapidly progress a number of small molecule projects towards proof of concept studies we need to measure pharmaceutical company quality ADME information. By choosing Pharmidex as our supplier of pharmacokinetic and ADME studies we will not only access high quality laboratory services but also gain access to experience and knowledge in a scientific partnership that will enable us to develop efficient, timely, high quality studies to answer key aspects of our programme progressions.”
