CRS is a leading full-service early phase Contract Research Organization (CRO) with three state-of-the-art research units in Germany. We excel in innovative solutions for early clinical development, from First-in-Human studies to Proof-of-Concept trials in patients.

We specialize in metabolic and cardiovascular disorders, women’s health, and clinical trials involving renal and hepatic impaired patients. Leveraging our deep knowledge,
we provide expert guidance to navigate the complexities of
drug development.

Our extensive expertise makes us an ideal partner for biopharmaceutical companies, offering strategic and tactical project-related outsourcing partnerships.

Our History

CRS was established in 2006 through the merger of three renowned CROs in Germany:

  • Institute for Clinical Pharmacology Kiel (IKP Institut für klinische Pharmakologie Kiel GmbH).
  • PPN Pharm PlanNET Contract Research GmbH.
  • Institute for Clinical Pharmacology Mannheim/Gruenstadt (IKP Institut für klinische Pharmakologie Mannheim/Grünstadt GmbH).

These organizations brought together over 40 years of collective experience in clinical pharmacology and Phase I clinical trials. Today, CRS operates three Clinical Pharmacology Units (CPUs) across Germany, with a combined capacity of more than 160 beds. This infrastructure positions us as one of Europe’s leading providers of Phase I clinical trial services, offering both standard PharmacoKinetic (PK) / PharmacoDynamic (PD) trial designs and specialized Phase I studies.
