Companion Diagnostics (CDx) Development

The era of personalized medicine is here, driven by the critical role of companion diagnostics. Creative Biolabs is at the forefront of this revolution, offering specialized CDx development services that perfectly align with targeted therapeutic strategies. We understand the stringent regulatory and scientific demands unique to CDx assays, which often co-develop with novel pharmaceuticals. Our platform is adept at identifying and developing high-performance antibodies for protein-based biomarkers, essential for guiding therapeutic decisions across oncology, autoimmune conditions, and other critical disease areas. From initial biomarker validation and antibody discovery to providing materials suitable for rigorous clinical trials and eventual regulatory submission, our integrated approach ensures your CDx program progresses efficiently and reliably.

Typical Workflow for IVD Immunoassay Development

While our core expertise is antibody development, Creative Biolabs recognizes that our products are integral to complete IVD immunoassay systems. Our platform is meticulously designed with an understanding of the broader immunoassay development lifecycle. We produce antibodies that are not just high-quality reagents but are truly "assay-ready," optimized for seamless integration into various diagnostic formats. Whether you are developing complex chemiluminescence assays, rapid lateral flow tests, traditional ELISA systems, or turbidimetric assays, our team's deep knowledge of immunoassay design and performance ensures that our antibodies provide the robust foundation you need. We collaborate closely with clients to ensure our antibody solutions contribute to their overall assay design, raw material selection, and systematic evaluation and optimization, thereby accelerating the entire development workflow.

Typical Project Workflow

Phase I

Project Initiation and Demand Analysis

Our process begins with an in-depth conversation to grasp your project's core objectives. We focus on understanding your diagnostic targets, application scenarios, and crucial performance requirements (sensitivity, specificity, budget, timeline). Our expert team assesses feasibility, offering preliminary technical advice and crafting tailored solutions. This phase yields a clear project scope, draft technical solutions, and a preliminary plan, setting a solid foundation.
