About Us

Transforming preclinical research into confident decision‑making


Pharmidex is a UK‑based contract research organisation supporting biotech, pharmaceutical, and academic partners with high‑quality preclinical and bioanalytical research. We generate robust, regulator‑ready data that enables confident decisions from early discovery through IND‑ and CTA‑enabling stages.

Our teams combine scientific depth, regulatory experience, and operational pragmatism to deliver studies that are not only technically sound, but genuinely useful for progressing development programmes.

Why Pharmidex



Developing new medicines is complex, high‑risk, and time‑critical. Our role is to reduce uncertainty and friction at every stage of preclinical development. What our partners value most:

Logo

Data you can trust

GLP‑accredited bioanalysis and rigorously controlled in vivo and in vitro studies designed with regulatory expectations in mind.

Logo

Integrated capability

In‑life, formulation, bioanalysis, and translational insight delivered under one roof, reducing hand‑offs and timelines.

Logo

Scientific partnership, not just execution

Senior scientists actively involved in study design, interpretation, and problem‑solving.

Logo

Flexible and responsive delivery

Programmes tailored to your compound, modality, and development stage rather than rigid templates.

Who We Work With

We support a broad range of organisations across the life sciences ecosystem:


  • Early‑stage and venture‑backed biotech companies
  • Mid‑size and large pharmaceutical organisations
  • Academic groups and translational research consortia
  • Grant‑funded and public–private partnerships


Whether you need a focused standalone study or a fully integrated preclinical package, we adapt our approach to fit your objectives, timelines, and regulatory pathway.

Our collaborations are built on clarity, transparency, and shared ownership of outcomes.


  • Collaborative study design

Early scientific input to align studies with development goals


  • Clear communication

Regular updates, direct access to scientists, and no hidden assumptions


  • Single‑point project leadership

Streamlined delivery and accountability



  • Actionable reporting

Data presented in a way that supports real decisions, not just documentation

Rather than offering disconnected services, we design studies around the questions that matter most to programme progression.

  • Preclinical Pharmacology & In Vivo Studies

Generate high‑quality efficacy and mechanistic data to support candidate selection and translational confidence.


  • Bioanalysis (GLP and non‑GLP)

Accurate, validated quantitative bioanalysis to support PK, ADME, toxicokinetic, and clinical‑stage decision making.


  • Toxicology & Safety Support

Well‑designed safety and tolerability studies to inform IND/CTA submissions and risk assessment.



  • Translational & Discovery Support

Integrated approaches that link exposure, biology, and outcome to strengthen go/no‑go decisions.

Since our founding in 2002, Pharmidex has grown into a trusted preclinical partner with a strong delivery record.


  • 17,000+ studies completed
  • 400+ global clients supported
  • 30+ successful collaborative research and grant programmes



Our experience spans a wide range of therapeutic areas, modalities, and development challenges.

If you are looking for a preclinical partner who combines regulatory rigour with scientific insight and flexibility, we would welcome a discussion.
