We have over 150 beds across our 3 inpatient clinical trial sites in the UK and EU, each with dedicated teams experienced in delivering clinical trials, from first-in-human through to Phase IIa studies.
We are the world leader in conducting human challenge studies in infectious disease and opened our flagship 50-bed quarantine facility in London in 2024. The inpatient clinical trial unit has state-of-the-art isolation infrastructure, as well as integrated laboratory, pharmacy, and catering facilities.
Our expertise also spans early phase studies (including complex pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies as well as studies in participants with renal and hepatic impairment), asthma and respiratory medicine, cardiometabolic medicine, dermatology, pain management, and the central nervous system.
