Early-Stage R&D
Lead and clone selection are some of the most critical and challenging steps in early biopharmaceutical development. The selected molecules and clones determine the product’s critical quality attributes (CQAs) such as glycosylation patterns, charge variants, and aggregation propensity. These attributes affect efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity, and are hard to change later without restarting development.
We offer full-service cell line development, characterization, and cell banking of mammalian and microbial cell lines within our network of experienced CDMOs/CROs.
Through Biofidus, a member of the Midas Group, we offer in-house analytical services tailored to support early-stage biopharmaceutical development. Our core expertise lies in the structural and functional analysis of biopharmaceutical products. With a comprehensive portfolio of advanced analytical methods and deep experience in characterizing biological molecules, we enable you to make confident, data-driven decisions - from clone and lead selection to developability assessment.
With Biofidus, you gain the clarity and insight needed to move forward with confidence.
