Contract wins

Venn Life Sciences (AIM: VENN), a growing Contract Research Organisation (CRO) providing drug development, clinical trial management and resourcing solutions to pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device clients, announces that it has signed a new contract worth €2.8m with a European Biotechnology client. The clinical trial is a Phase II study in the area of Immunotherapeutic treatments for Multiple Sclerosis and involves patients in six countries across Europe and commences in October 2016.

Furthermore Venn's Interactive Response Technology ("IRT") department, which centralises the randomisation of patients for Phase I to IV clinical trails and manages the logistics of these studies, has successfully qualified as a service provider to a top ten Pharmaceutical client and has been awarded an initial project involving thirty sites in China. This vendor qualification is a significant milestone for the IRT division and represents an exciting opportunity to grow a global account.

Commenting, Venn CEO, Tony Richardson said: "I am pleased to see the addition of a significant new account for Venn. We are now benefitting from a good balance of repeat business, client referals and new business wins from prospecting. I am particularly pleased with our success in IRT. Coming through the vendor qualification and audit process with "big-pharma" represents a significant step for our organisation and high quality execution of this initial project should result in a rich vein of new business."
