Altasciences , a mid-size CRO specializing in a flexible, innovative approach to providing comprehensive early stage drug development from lead candidate selection to proof of concept, today announced that it has acquired Alliance Contract Pharma . This acquisition adds small molecule contract manufacturing and analytical services from API to commercialization, including commercial manufacturing, GMP warehouse storage, and clinical supply distribution, to Altasciences’ full-service preclinical, clinical, and bioanalytical offerings.
Transferring data, projects, and/or methodologies between CROs, or between different groups within a multi-service CRO, takes time, is prone to error, and can lead to prolonged R&D timelines. Altasciences is addressing these challenges through the integration of key strategic additions, such as their preclinical business in October 2018 , and now Alliance Contract Pharma. Clients partnering with Altasciences on their drug development programs benefit from working with a fully integrated CRO, allowing for quicker, more proactive development timeline adjustments and decision making to improve R&D efficiency.
“The addition of Alliance Contract Pharma continues to fulfill our strategy of creating a comprehensive offering that facilitates the outsourcing experience for our clients. We remain committed to providing our clients with value-added services that create a new paradigm of drug development outsourcing,” added Chris Perkin, CEO of Altasciences.
“We are excited to be joining a team that is responsive and understanding, and continuously looking to create innovative partnerships that redefine the status quo and address the challenges that our clients face in meeting critical milestones, ” stated Stephen Schweibenz, President of Alliance Contract Pharma.
BlackArch Partners served as exclusive financial advisor to Alliance Contract Pharma.
