First in Human Twice Weekly Fast Turnaround

Customer required routine twice weekly fast turnaround of first in human (FIH) samples from a clinic based in continental Europe to enable rapid progression of the clinical program.

Approach

Key to supporting twice weekly fast turnaround was the development of highly robust and well established analytical methods and systems, to provide the mechanism to deliver fast, robust and reliable bioanalytical data.

Samples couriered overnight from the clinic, received in the morning and analysed during the day. Results turned around by lunchtime the following day. Weekend coverage required to provide twice weekly turnaround.

Outcome

All timelines met, enabling rapid progression of the clinical program. We have never missed a fast turnaround deadline and now this twice weekly fast turnaround model is routinely used by this customer for supporting new compounds entering the clinic.
