6 May 2009

Cambridge, UK-based CellCentric, a biotechnology company unlocking epigenetic control mechanisms, has signed an enlarged agreement with HD  Biosciences, a Shanghai, China-headquartered firm specializing in drug  discovery contract research, in order to further build CellCentric's  portfolio of drug discovery programs.

Prior to signing this expanded master services agreement, CellCentric  and HDB worked together on an initial set of targets identified and  prioritized by the UK group. The new deal provides a framework to drive  these programs forward. HDB is acknowledged as a leading drug discovery  contract research organization CRO, and the company was presented with  Pfizer's 2008 Top Research Service Partner Award in recognition of the  quality, productivity and value delivered to its client.
