‘Clinical Trials’

A Laboratorytalk guide

Start with the news release Alliance to focus on anti-cancer treatments from Cancer Research UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Cancer Research Technology (CRT) has teamed up with Astrazeneca in a multi-project alliance in which around 30 scientists will focus on creating a stream of new anti-cancer drugs.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Diagnostic test kit for immunotherapy vaccine from Qiagen: "Pfizer and DxS are to develop a companion diagnostic test kit for PF-04948568 (CDX-110), an immunotherapy vaccine in development for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). ".
 
In February 2010, we covered the news from Tecan Group - take a look at Tecan and Enigma sign manufacturing deal which says: "Tecan will manufacture and deliver ML instruments for Enigma's global market supplies for an initial five-year contract and will also manage the ML instruments supply chain. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Inverness Medical Innovations, IMA supplies Triage NGAL Test for AKI study, as well as Rainin Pos-D pipette dispenses difficult liquids from Anachem, and Dotslide uses microscopy to generate virtual slide from Olympus Life Science Europa.
