Crown Bioscience Announces U.S. Expansion With New Translational Oncology Center
Crown Bioscience, Inc. has announced the opening of the Crown Bioscience US Research Center to be located at the David H. Murdock Research Institute (DHMRI), in Kannapolis, N.C. The new center, which will open in the 3rd quarter of 2014, represents significant U.S. market expansion for Crown.
The newly established center will combine Crown’s existing cardiovascular and metabolic disease (CVMD) services with a new U.S. expansion of Crown oncology services. Crown’s CVMD business features several in vivo models including a unique collection of spontaneously diabetic monkeys. The addition of Crown oncology services will provide U.S.-based pharmaceutical and biotechnology clients’ access to Crown’s distinctive collection of immune-oncology models. The center will enable U.S. based pharmaceutical and biotech partners to improve the selection and development path for promising clinical candidates; reducing drug development costs. The center at the Kannapolis site will also take advantage of state of the art immunology technologies, including flow cytometry and immunoassays, available at DHMRI, and will also be able to access unique mouse strains available in the U.S.
