-- Alfa Cytology, premier Contract Research Organization (CRO), today emphasizes its crucial contribution to accelerating the pace of worldwide oncology research. With its combined capabilities of model development and in vivo PK studies for drug development, the company is establishing a solid foundation for pharmaceutical and biotech partners to speed up the translation of new cancer therapies from bench to bedside.
Recognizing an above-average failure rate for drug candidates within the field of oncology, Alfa Cytology has created a seamless pipeline that serves to de-risk and simplify development. This integrated approach to evaluating putative therapies for the treatment of cancer will provide a level of scientific rigor and translational relevance that are expected to increase success in human trials.
l Integrated Service Platforms for Oncology Advancement
The company's strength lies in its interconnected service divisions, designed to provide end-to-end support for drug discovery and development programs.
Advanced cancer modeling services: Alfa Cytology specializes in developing in vivo cancer models for drug screening. This includes the generation of standard animal models, such as genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs), patient-derived xenografts (PDX), and cell-derived xenografts (CDX), to evaluate drug efficacy and safety in vivo. The platform also encompasses a wide array of in vitro models, including 3D cell culture and organoid systems, which allow for high-throughput screening and mechanistic studies in a more physiologically relevant environment.
Rigorous preclinical research services: Building on insights from disease models, the preclinical team conducts comprehensive pharmacological and toxicological evaluations. Their capabilities include a full spectrum of in vitro and in vivo studies, covering pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and toxicology assessments. The service is supported by state-of-the-art molecular and cellular analysis platforms, including flow cytometry, histopathology, and various ‘omics’ analyses, to uncover the mechanism of action and identify predictive biomarkers.
Expertise Across the Therapeutic Spectrum: The company’s platforms are applied across multiple modalities, including small molecules, biologics, and cell-based therapies. Their scientists provide expert support in areas such as stem cell biology and characterization, which is critical for developing next-generation therapies.
l Commitment to Data Quality and Regulatory Compliance
Alfa Cytology operates its research facilities under the highest quality standards. The company is committed to generating reliable, reproducible, and auditable data, adhering to strict Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) principles where required. This commitment ensures that the data packages generated are of the quality needed to support regulatory submissions for Investigational New Drug (IND) applications.
“By integrating predictive models with high-quality preclinical data, we help our clients make faster, more informed decisions,” said a spokesperson for Alfa Cytology. “Our goal is to be more than a service provider; we strive to be a strategic partner in conquering the complexities of cancer therapy development.”
