Reaction Biology
Private Company
Total funding raised: $10M
Overview
Reaction Biology is a well-established, privately-held CRO providing fee-for-service and integrated drug discovery solutions. Its core strength lies in a broad, integrated assay platform encompassing biochemical profiling, cellular models, biophysical analysis, safety/toxicology, and in vivo pharmacology, with notable specialization in immuno-oncology and kinase research. With over 20 years of operation, a global client base, and a track record of contributing to FDA-approved therapies, the company is positioned as a key enabler in the preclinical R&D outsourcing market. Its business model is purely service-based, generating revenue through contracted research without developing its own therapeutic assets.
Technology Platform
Integrated preclinical drug discovery platform offering biochemical assays (extensive kinase/target library), cell-based assays (1000+ cell lines), biophysical assays (SPR, ITC), in vivo pharmacology, safety/toxicology, GMP bioassays, and specialized immuno-oncology services.
