About us

KCAS Bio is a global bioanalytical laboratory with four main sites: one in Lyon, France (formerly Active Biomarkers), two in the USA (Kansas City, KS, and Philadelphia, PA) and one in the APAC region through an alliance with Crux Biolabs (Melbourne, Australia).

We provide comprehensive and tailored solutions for supporting the development of all modalities, with extensive capabilities and expertise in pharmacokinetics (PK), toxicokinetics (TK), pharmacodynamics (PD), immune profiling, receptor occupancy (ROA), immunogenicity studies (ADA), and biomarker analysis for pre-clinical and clinical studies.

ISO 9001:2015 and GLP accredited, our fully BSL2 test facility in France has a strong track record in developing, qualifying, validating, and implementing bioanalytical and biomarker methods through a wide range of LBA technologies such as ELISA, Luminex, MSD, Ella, Lumipulse and Quanterix. We also support cell & gene therapy programs through our conventional and spectral Flow cytometry and ELISpot capabilities.
