KCAS established our clinical sample kit (CSK) team in the early 1990s in response to shortcomings we observed in the collection techniques in trials where we were providing bioanalytical support. As the group has evolved, our aim has never been to be the biggest supplier in the industry but rather…

Produced by AAPS Organized by Sciex Recorded on December 6, 2023 eChalkTalk available here.  Webinar Description: In this webinar, scientists from KCAS Bio, along with specialists from SCIEX Biopharma & Pharma Solutions discuss • Developing robust assays for PD biomarkers and their challenges…

Along with a series of studies we plan to present related to our experiences with hybrid LC-MS/MS technology, KCAS will also be presenting on a study where we analyzed a compound that involved looking at urea in plasma and lung fluid (urea, of course, being a biomarker). Urea is endogenous…

For years, Dawn Dufield, PhD and I have been doing our best to get the word out (via as many venues as possible) about KCAS’s unique expertise with hybrid LC-MS/MS. This year’s upcoming EBF meeting in Barcelona is just such an opportunity, and one we are very much looking…

The Pharm/Biotech industry’s main focus is on development of therapeutics to address unmet medical needs but sometimes, clinical trials lead to observations that lead to a change in research path for a drug. A good example is sildenafil that was originally studied for use in hypertension and angina pectoris. Observed…

In the world of scientific research and development, certain analytes pose unique challenges that require specialized expertise to overcome. Oligonucleotides, a class of analytes consisting of short DNA or RNA sequences, are notorious for their complexity and demanding nature. With their increasing importance in the…

Anyone who has been following KCAS for any amount of time has likely heard us discuss the advantages of Hybrid LC-MS/MS for the bioanalysis of large molecules. As pioneers in the technology for many years, KCAS has become a strong proponent of working with our customers to demonstrate the quality…

KCAS established our Clinical Sample Kitting team in the early 1990s in response to shortcomings we observed in the collection techniques in trials where we were providing bioanalytical support. As the group has evolved, our aim has been to provide the flexible, custom service that…

Due to the relative maturity of the technology, most people’s instinct when thinking about bioanalysis of large molecules is towards ligand binding assays. However, we urge people to be open to a more flexible approach. Using hybrid LC-MS/MS can be an equally useful tool for quantitation of biological therapeutics and…

Although bioanalysis is KCAS’ principal area of expertise, we are always considering how we can build around those capabilities to ensure that we can provide optimal service for our clients. Our current breadth of service enables us to provide a comprehensive approach during non-GLP pre-clinical studies where it is feasible…

Although small molecules represent the majority of compounds in development as drug candidates, there is an increasing tendency to more complex molecular structures to address unmet molecular needs. This has been reflected in the…
