Since 1995,
QPS has been providing high quality bioanalytical LC/MS/MS contract
services to clients around the world from its headquarters in
the US.
In 2002, QPS
simultaneously launched four additional services - immunoanalytical
for protein drug concentration determination; protein biomarkers/biochemical
markers determination; ADME (Adsorption, Distribution, Metabolism,
and Excretion); and Autoradiography. This represents the first
step in the linear integration of QPS services from bioanalysis
to IND-enabling AMDE studies to biomarkers studies supporting
both preclinical and clinical PKPD correlation.
In 2004, QPS
established an Asian presence by opening a state-of-the-art, bioanalytical
LC/MS/MS facility in Taipei, Taiwan, offering strategic solutions
to Asia-Pacific Rim companies as well as US-based companies with
sites or trials overseas or simply want to off-shore studies in
Asia. Systems, processes, and the procedures developed and fine-tuned
in the US were transferred and implemented in our Taiwan facility.
Although integrated, each facility retains its local identity
and local responsiveness, allowing sponsors to choose the QPS
location that best fits their global needs. In total, QPS operates
37 mass spectrometers worldwide, which allows us to effectively
complete trails of almost any size. Bioanalytical assays are validated
in compliance with the latest FDA, OECD, and MHLW Guidance.
In 2006, QPS-US
launched a genomic biomarker services targeted at toxicogenomic
studies and SNP determination for patient stratification. With
the addition of this genomic biomarker services, QPS strives to
provide a more comprehensive biomarker offering for translational
medical research.
In 2007, QPS
acquired Bio-Kinetic Clinical Applications, an early phase clinical
research organization, headquartered in Springfield, MO. The combination
of QPS and Bio-Kinetic provides an exciting proposition for our
clients for QPS to seamlessly transfer compound knowledge from
discovery to preclinical stage into early-phase clinical research.
Come and
discover QPS for the Quality You Expect, Service You Trust, and
Turnaround You Need.
