ABOUT US
MAC Clinical Research is a full-service, global, pharmaceutical contract research organization (CRO), with science at the heart of everything we do. MAC is unique with the distinct advantage of having built a fully owned network of clinical sites over the last 30 years, enabling studies to be located at high-performing sites to expedite developments within budget and with the highest quality data.
GMP Manufacturing is conducted at our MHRA (MIA) IMP licensed facilities at Leeds and Manchester, which can deliver bespoke clinical studies from single dose to batch production. MAC’s GMP-compliant facility in Leeds was purpose designed and commissioned in 2016
