We harness the best people, science, and technologies to provide insights and data for optimal immuno-oncology research and development
With increased complexity in oncology protocol design and time sensitivity, we provide you with a robust adaptive, specialist oncology team with access to the latest science and technology who will optimize the outcome of clinical trials. Precision medicine development in the oncology field requires a flexible and agile specialty laboratory partner who can adjust as the protocol does, ensuring endpoints are captured and enabling studies to move forward with the right data.
Cerba Research can provide integrated specialty testing to your existing central laboratory process.

Scientist to scientist communication.
We understand your challenges, tailoring answers to support your scientific questions.
Dedicated global project management team, and scientific project managers for speciality techniques.

Custom panels to support oncology therapeutic development using NanoString™ technology
Cerba Research offers tissue omics services for pre–clinical and translational research programs as well as clinical trials. Our flexible solutions allow for quantitative analysis of both proteins and transcripts in whole tissue, either as bulk analysis or spatially in regions of interest and in specific cell populations on tissue sections.
Our laboratory is equipped with the both nCounter® And GeoMx® Nanostring platforms, to provide the most relevant dataset available for each specific request.
