Hit to Lead
We move your identified hits forward into in vivo testing and lead optimization

Our team is well-coordinated in providing a streamlined hit to lead transition while working closely with you on a meaningful and dedicated screening system to allow for efficient hit expansion. InnoSer provides robust and unbiased experimental design, methodology, analysis, interpretation, and reporting of results to support your journey into the Lead Optimization phase.
Our Approach
We support your needs with customized solutions
Our collaborative approach ensures that you see your hit compound’s properties improve to fulfill the necessary criteria moving into the Lead Optimization phase. Using multi-parametric methods we assess potency, selectivity, pharmacokinetic and physical properties enabling you to channel your resources into compounds that show promising signs of more uniform characteristics.

AAALAC Accreditation
InnoSer has earned the AAALAC accreditation, demonstrating our commitment to responsible animal care and use. AAALAC International is a nonprofit organization that promotes the humane treatment of animals in science through voluntary accreditation and assessment programs. Our accreditation is valid for three years, incl. 2023. Read more about the AAALAC accreditation programme here.
Animal Welfare
The 3Rs impact everything from policy and regulatory change to the development and uptake of new technologies and approaches. This is why InnoSer has ongoing commitment and monitoring of these processes. The steps we practice maximize our ability to replace, reduce and refine animal involvement and facilitate our commitment to these principles when it comes to research and drug development.
