Altogen Labs Offers Pre-Clinical CRO Services to Accelerate Pre-Clinical Research Needs

Altogen Labs, a biotechnology company focused on providing biotechnology research services for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and academic institutions worldwide, announced pre-clinical contract research services enabling companies to accelerate pre-clinical research needs.

Pre-clinical trials assess the toxicity and pharmacological activity of investigative new drugs (INDs) to assess a compound’s therapeutic potential and safety for human use. A very important component of pre-clinical trials includes in vivo toxicology analysis. At Altogen Labs, in vivo toxicology studies can include acute, subchronic, and chronic toxicity tests to study of toxic effects of chemical substances.

To accelerate the development of new anti-cancer medicines, Altogen Labs now offers in vivo xenograft services for drug development studies to treat inflammation, infectious diseases, cancer, pain, immunology and obesity.
