CLINICAL TRIALS · PHARMA AND CROs

Precision genetic and epigenetic testing for your trials.

Whole genome sequencing and 930k CpG methylation arrays, run alongside your CRO, to inform patient selection, sharpen drug analytics and understand who responds.

WHY IT MATTERS

The right drug can fail with the wrong patients.

Genetic and epigenetic data help explain why some patients respond and others don’t — and who your drug is really for.

THE CHALLENGE
~90%
of drug candidates in clinical
trials don’t reach approval
$2.6B
average cost to bring
one new drug to approval
  • Lack of efficacy and patient heterogeneity are leading causes.
  • Conventional biomarkers miss epigenetic drivers of drug response.
  • Without multi-omics data, a drug’s best-fit patients stay hidden.

OUR TESTING

WGS

Whole genome sequencing

SNPs, indels and structural variants linked to drug metabolism and treatment response, including CYP450 genes.

METHYLATION

930k CpG methylation array

Genome-wide epigenetic patterns as biomarkers of disease state and therapy sensitivity.

SERVICE

Lab to report

From the samples your CRO sends us to trial-ready reports. Studies of 50 to 1,000+ samples, with an 8–10 week turnaround.

APPLICATIONS

Where it helps a trial.

PATIENT SELECTION

Fewer screen failures

WGS and methylation data that help your CRO pre-screen for the patients most likely to respond.

DRUG ANALYTICS

Sharper PK/PD models

Longitudinal tracking of genetic and epigenetic changes across the trial.

PATIENT INSIGHT

Responsive subgroups

Find the groups that benefit most, to support real-world evidence and companion diagnostics.

PROJECTED IMPACT
