We do not anticipate any delays or problems for our projects. Our business is operating normally and will continue to work normally at any time, and we commit to all agreed services and deadlines. The combination will have no impact on our day-to-day business.

There is no impact on your current project. If there’s an added service you’d like to explore with this acquisition, we are happy to look at how to best offer it to you.

Your Project Manager or point of contact will remain the same – we’re just adding new services and expertise for you!

Absolutely. There are no changes or interruptions to our contracts, services, or commitments for supported trials.

Both Myonex and Creapharms have a strong, robust and compliant Quality System that will continue to operate in parallel.

Synergies to combine the best in class will be pursued through combined teams while ensuring that the client timelines and level of compliance are maintained.

While no immediate changes are needed to existing contracts, if (and only if) the client needs additional services from Creapharm or Myonex, there may be a need to update our contracts to include Myonex´s or Creapharm’s services and locations to the respective MSAs and QTAs, as applicable. In this case, we will work with you to enact any such changes.

Additionally, all payment and billing information will remain unchanged. We will notify you separately in the event any billing or payment information changes may be needed in the future.

We anticipate a significant number of client audit requests and will make every effort to accommodate as many audits as possible without disrupting current operations. Timing of audits/audit priority will be based on a number of factors, including but not limited to:

  • Type of audit request
  • Timing of project/trial
  • Overall extent of client relationship

Please work with your main point of contact to request your audit.
