Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

Agility Life Sciences is a verified, award-winning CDMO (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization) based in the UK, specializing in formulation development for the pharmaceutical industry. The project solves a high-utility problem (drug solubility/permeability) with strong technical validity. While the submission contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' as traction, and mislabeling revenue as 'marketcap'), external verification confirms the company is an established SME (founded 2012) with significant industry traction, facilities, and a team size consistent with the '50-125' range. The score reflects high real-world utility and verified business status, penalized for poor submission quality and exaggerated reach claims.

Project Details

Description
We are an award-winning formulation development CDMO, focussed on accelerating your milestones and futureproofing your products. Futureproof your formulations, fast. We develop formulations to give badly behaved molecules the best chance of success in preclinical studies, and enable them to be accelerated to clinic or commercialisation. Our "Fast Futureproof Formulations" approach means that before we embark on a development project, we consider: • The molecule: What are the properties of the molecule which we need to formulate around/out (for example, poor solubility and/or permeability)? • The endgame: Where does the client want to take the product. e.g. GLP tox, Phase I, commercial? What is the target product profile? • The imminent studies: What are the timelines, doses and route(s) of administration? • The species: What are the dosing volumes? What are the restrictions on format and/or excipients? Then, rather than conducting generic screens which waste time, money and precious API, we develop formulations to overcome the problematic properties of the molecule. We make sure that these products are fit for the current and future purpose. Our formulations specialisms include oral, ocular, intravenous, intranasal, topical and subcutaneous products. We develop and manufacture formulations to meet the needs of our clients including: • Overcoming solubility and permeability issues • Targeted drug delivery, including across the blood-brain barrier • Lipid nanoparticle and liposomal formulations • Immediate, controlled and sustained release • Formulations and analytical methods suitable for preclinical safety and efficacy studies, including GLP tox studies • Clinical and commercial prototypes • Reverse engineering of existing products Contact us at claire.thompson@agilitylifesciences.com to find out how we can help accelerate your milestones and futureproof your products.
