Discovery

Accelerate drug discovery and deliver development candidates faster.

As a chemistry contract research organization (CRO) we offer a wide range of services spanning medicinal chemistry, proprietary compound collections, computational chemistry, and early absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) and PhysChem properties.

SpiroChem has a world-class and dynamic team of hand-picked experts covering all aspects of chemistry and led by seasoned scientific leaders. Our innovative approach to problem-solving enables clients to be agile in their discovery processes.

Our dedicated experts work as an extension of your team, bringing enthusiasm, creativity, and competency to every challenge, also leveraging SpiroChem’s collective know-how, the SpiroBrain. We offer you the ‘best chance of being successful’ that significantly derisks your research programs.

Our deep, collective knowledge base in drug discovery extends beyond our facilities, giving you access to SpiroChem’s network of high-quality trusted research partners, all orchestrated by SpiroChem to give you peace of mind. We guide your project from hit validation to lead optimization in fully-integrated medicinal chemistry projects.

We take great pride in our exceptionally high success rate that routinely defies traditional market standards.

In the intricate landscape of drug discovery, SpiroChem thoughtfully orchestrates chemical pathways tailored to your needs. Being at the confluence of innovative chemistry and the most advanced technologies on the market means we can deliver comprehensive and interpretable data, using a broad range of analytical platforms.

Our high-throughput chemistry expertise allows quick design and synthesis of novel hit expansion libraries, thereby shortening design-make-test (DMT) cycles and accelerating the decision process at each iteration. With refined computational techniques and a comprehensive understanding of medicinal chemistry, we produce high-quality and diverse leads for optimization.

Through a network of partners and trusted CROs, we optimize molecules on ADME/PK parameters (early absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity profiling, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) correlations.

Once a development candidate is selected, tech transfer to other CROs and to CDMOs is facilitated by our detailed experimental protocols and reports, describing with precision what was successful and what was not, as well as suggestions for future work. We remain available for consulting and troubleshooting.

Testimonials
“SpiroChem has played a key role in the development of Vandria. They have allowed us to make the best out of our discovery and Medicinal Chemistry project and have accompanied us all the way with route scouting for upscaling. SpiroChem’s chemists make the impossible happen, propose innovative ideas and structures, with high-quality reporting and competitive timeframe. On top of that, SpiroChem is one of the best CRO I have the pleasure to interact with in terms of communication, reactivity and reliability. I can only recommend SpiroChem and look forward to continuing working with them.”
