Pharmacokinetic (PK)
Assays

Precision advances the development of complex therapeutics including small peptides, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), PEGylated proteins, monoclonal and bispecific antibodies, and cell-based therapies like CAR-T, with a range of bioanlytical services.

To support PK studies at all phases of development, we offer assay development, validation, and implementation using ELISAs and MesoScale Discovery (MSD) assays for biologics, and flow cytometry and Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) for cell-based therapies. Additionally, Precision utilizes the SIMOA platform to perform PK assays at extreme sensitivity, which can be critical for the success of dose-escalation studies.

PK assays for biologics and cell-based therapeutics

Capabilities

We offer assay development, validation, and implementation to obtain the following PK data:

  • Absorption
  • Cmax
  • Bioavailability
  • Half-life
  • Clearance
End-to-end support

Precision can address your assay development, validation, and testing needs from preclinical through pivotal trials.

  • Unparalleled scientific leadership
  • Fit-for-purpose – design, qualify, validate (GLP, GCLP, CLIA) the right assays at the right time
  • Global scale – logistics to support global sample collection and storage in a 100,000 square foot state-of-the-art CAP-accredited and ISO-certified facility

Integrating biomarker and clinical trial data

 

Precision has built a proprietary informatics platform, QuartzBio, to help researchers understand and interpret PK data in the context of other pharmacodynamic (PD)-related biomarker assay data, as well as in the context of key clinical trial annotations

Global reach, multi-site support

Our PK services support pre-clinical and clinical research, including multi-site studies, conducted anywhere in the world.

Working with Precision

Precision’s specialty lab scientists take a collaborative and consultative approach to projects and can provide recommendations on biomarker assay strategies and implementation. Services can be provided individually or as part of a comprehensive therapeutic development package including biomarker assays and clinical trials.
