Pre-clinical

Immunology CRO

Nexus BioQuest offers a custom-tailored approach to providing CRO services specific to immunology pre-clinical trials. Our focused expertise enables us to offer a specialised and personalised perspective on the development and management of your drug development strategy, adhering to all regulatory standards. We strive to elevate the prospective outcomes for your drug development programme, ensuring that medicines in the early development phase yield preliminary efficacy, toxicity, pharmacokinetic understanding, and safety information.

Our dedicated team of expert scientists and consultants are fully equipped with professional hands-on experience in analysing, designing, and executing pre-clinical studies with utmost scrutiny. Our mission is centered around patient priority, which brings our focus to providing expertise and innovative solutions to accelerate your immuno- therapeutics to the clinic in a timely manner.

Our Therapeutic Areas of Focus

Our focused expertise in immunological research allows us to deep-dive into various aspects of the field, ensuring comprehensive support for your drug development programmes.

Immune-oncology: Our pre-clinical research and development efforts focus on pioneering testing methods to validate therapeutic targets along the immuno-oncology axis, enhancing your novel therapeutics’ potential to harness the immune system’s ability to prevent, identify, control or kill tumour cells. We leverage cutting-edge technologies and methodologies to uncover and better understand the mechanisms behind these abnormalities on a molecular level, elucidating the true nature of your drug to combat these conditions.

Autoimmunity

Our team of specialised immunologists is committed to advancing treatments that address some of the most challenging and critical conditions in immunology.

Autoimmunity: Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis are suffered by many. Here at Nexus BioQuest, we aim to address the underlying causes of such conditions with a meticulous and stringent approach, ensuring that your novel therapeutics’ mode-of-action is fully understood. Our current drive to test more targeted therapeutics stems from our goal to potentially modulate or reprogramme the immune system’s framework with your drug. This way, we are bringing preliminary promises to patients who require this type of treatment into the clinic.

Inflammation

Inflammation and Neuro-inflammation: The study of inflammation is a continuous focus for many scientists, aiming to address the issue of uncontrolled inflammation that can lead to conditions such as heart disease, Crohn’s disease, and Huntington’s disease. Here at Nexus BioQuest, we are experts in modelling inflammatory processes in vitro, offering specialised testing services for your novel immuno-modulators to hit the market.

What our clients say

We have been delighted with our interactions with Nexus BioQuest. I first reached out to them after a recommendation from a former colleague. I appreciated their ability to suggest immunoassay options to address the question of interest (as a neurobiologist, the immune system definitely works in mysterious ways!). This was further bolstered by exemplary attention to detail when putting together a work package proposal which was then efficiently executed. The skill set, responsiveness, knowledge base, effort, effectiveness, transparent and regular communication were all outstanding and I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Nexus BioQuest as a partner of choice.

Caroline Benn

Chief Scientific Officer and co-founder

Our work with Nexus BioQuest initially started with developing a novel T cell assay and grew from there into a much larger screening project. Working with Nexus has been a fantastic experience, marked by their deep expertise in immunology and friendly staff. At the onset of the project, Nexus really took the time to understanding of our project needs, setting us up for success throughout. Nexus distinguishes themselves by their enthusiasm, knowledge, and commitment to excellence, with contributed significantly to the development of a tailored assay that exceeded our expectations.

Ryan Shaler

Director, Sonata Therapeutics

I would like to thank the team at Nexus BioQuest for providing an excellent and professional service supporting our R&D development activities. The Nexus team were great to work with from contract signature to delivery of final reporting. I would certainly recommend their contract services to companies seeking immunology expertise and agile research solutions.

Andrew Mearns Spragg

Chief Scientific Officer, Jellagen

Our experience of working with Nexus was excellent, we felt they held the expertise required for the task at hand, working well together as a high performing team and presenting well researched solutions to assay development and the problems encountered. We wanted a fresh outlook for assay development for our project and the team were able to rapidly research the literature and come up with proposals. The team were flexible and dynamic in their approach providing honest feedback and critique to methods and results. We would certainly work with Nexus again and would not hesitate to recommend them as a CRO for immunological assay development.

Seema Patel

Immuno-oncology Alliance Science Program Lead, LifeArc

Working with Nexus BioQuest has been an absolutely wonderful experience. As a smaller biotechnology company that relies heavily on CRO support to execute our lab-based activities, we could not have found a better biological team to partner with. We needed a team to generate our biological package for a new pipeline candidate and we were fortunate to find Nexus and have them deliver a wonderful data package that will help the Bluejay team move our program forward. Working with this group felt like having an internal Bluejay R&D team from ease of execution, to great scientific discussions and troubleshooting, and having the feeling that the Nexus team was truly invested in the success of our program. I cannot recommend the Nexus team enough and will greatly look forward to collaborating with them again on our next programs and projects!
