The year 2018 marks the completion of 15 years of strategic collaboration between Grunenthal and TCG Lifesciences. This partnership started in the year 2003 with a simple fee-for-service custom synthesis project and gradually expanded into a sizeable FTE based collaborative working relationship covering a variety of services including Medicinal Chemistry, Process Development, Analytical Development, Library Synthesis, Scale-Up Synthesis as well as an integrated Drug Discovery mode across several therapeutic targets.
As a result, TCG Lifesciences has made a significant contribution to Grünenthal’s R&D activities through high quality, timely and cost effective delivery of new chemical entities across a broad range of drug discovery and development programs.
This exemplary and progressive journey of 15 years is built upon a strong trust-based relationship, effective teamwork and close communications between the scientific teams of both partners.
