Retroscreen Virology is Europe’s leading specialist virology contract research organisation (CRO). The work we conduct is dedicated to creating the next generation of antivirals and vaccines for a number of respiratory and enteric viral diseases. Our research ranges from pre-clinical (analytical) services through first-into-man (Phase 1a) studies and into human challenge studies (Phase 1b and Phase 2a proof-of-concept).
Experimental challenge studies, where healthy volunteers are infected with virus so that novel antivirals and vaccines can be assessed in a controlled manner, can rapidly reduce the time and cost of drug development by accelerating the selection of safe and effective dose and dosing regimes.
We currently conduct and co-ordinate several clinical trials per year particularly involving influenza, RSV or common cold viruses. Please contact us on the number below or browse our website for more information.
