R&D Organization
With the aim of identifying solutions and bringing our pharmaceuticals to patients around the world as quickly as possible, Kyowa Hakko Kirin has assembled a comprehensive organization of research and development facilities.
As its name signifies, this center focuses on the development of one-of-a-kind technologies at the frontiers of technology that will serve as platforms for the creation of pharmaceutical innovation.
While pursuing discovery research targeting new drug development, this center aims at creating antibody development candidates.
From the discovery of pharmaceutical candidates to guiding them through the clinical testing stages, this center is the core of Kyowa Hakko Kirin's pharmaceutical research and development activities.
Kyowa Hakko Kirin is also developing new production technologies for antibody pharmaceuticals and other drugs resulting from our biotechnology R&D and reinforcing capabilities to produce pharmaceuticals for clinical research.
