Athens, Greece
With more than 3,000 sqm of R&D facilities, our team in Athens specialises in the development of Value Added Medicines and has been recently upgraded with HPAPI capabilities.
Our Site
Adragos Athens (formerly Lamda Laboratories) is a Contract Development site that focuses on providing quality research services for both generic and speciality pharmaceutical companies. We specialise in Generics, Value Added Medicines (VAMs) and New Chemical Entities (NCE) developments. We have a highly experienced team of more than 60 scientists that have worked on numerous innovative products. Our licensing spectrum encompasses approvals from the Hellenic Republic Ministry of Health. This authorizes the site to handle products such as clonazepam, phenobarbital, and fentanyl, as well as related compounds classified under the umbrella of narcotics, all for the purpose of developmental endeavours.
We offer tailor-made services that cover a wide range of industry needs. From out-licensing and supply to one-off analysis, custom developments and advanced formulation services. Adragos Athens is able to cater to a multitude of customers with a diverse range of development requirements.
Formulation and Process Development
Our Formulation and Process Development activities are conducted in a GMP-like environment, mimicking the layout of a full-scale manufacturing site. Equipped with small-scale R&D equipment boasting a wide range of capabilities and techniques, we ensure seamless scale-up to different manufacturing sites.
EU GMP and FDA
Our GMP analytical laboratory is at the forefront of technology, equipped to handle the analytical challenges posed by both generic and complex developments. It holds EU GMP approval and is prepared for FDA inspection.
Additionally, our facility houses Stability Chambers and Walk-In rooms to preserve samples for all stability testing conducted at Adragos Athens.
Quality by Design
Quality by Design (QbD) is incorporated into every development. By ensuring QbD touches each point of the commercial manufacturing process we are able to develop consistent, quality pharmaceutical products.
Collaborative Excellence in Manufacturing
We not only collaborate with the Adragos production network, but also with an established network of third party CMOs, to ensure that all clinical and commercial manufacturing needs are met across all technologies with the same high standards of quality and efficiency following the product development phase.
