Laval, QC, Canada, July 31, 2025 — Altasciences, a fully integrated drug development solution company, and VoxCell BioInnovation (“VoxCell”), a leader in 3D bioprinting and human-like tissue modeling, are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration aimed at enhancing preclinical research and accelerating the path from discovery to clinical trials.

This partnership combines Altasciences’ comprehensive early-phase drug development capabilities with VoxCell’s cutting-edge 3D tissue technology to offer a more predictive and human-relevant preclinical testing environment. By integrating VoxCell’s high-resolution 3D bioprinted tissue platforms into Altasciences’ discovery and preclinical services, both companies aim to reduce R&D timelines and increase the success rate of investigational therapies.

“We’re proud to partner with VoxCell BioInnovation to bring next-generation tissue modeling into the early stages of drug development,” said Steve Mason, Co-Chief Operating Officer at Altasciences. “This collaboration aligns with our commitment to the 3Rs as well as to innovative, efficient solutions that improve data quality and accelerate decisions for our clients.”

VoxCell’s proprietary bioprinted tissues are engineered to closely mimic the complexity of human tumors and other biological structures, offering drug developers an advanced platform for evaluating efficacy, safety, and toxicity—before moving into animal or human studies.

“Our mission has always been to make drug screening more human-relevant and predictive,” said Karolina Valente, CEO of VoxCell BioInnovation. “Altasciences shares this forward-thinking approach, and we’re excited to work together to support pharmaceutical and biotech companies in making faster, more informed decisions.”

The collaboration will focus initially on drug screening for ocular indications, with plans to expand into additional therapeutic areas and applications.

This partnership represents a shared vision: to transform early stage research through innovation, integration, and smarter science—delivering better outcomes for patients worldwide.
