GSK Oncology is dedicated to producing innovations in cancer that will make profound differences in the lives of patients. Through GSK’s “bench to bedside” approach, we are transforming the way treatments are discovered and developed, resulting in one of the most robust pipelines in the oncology sector. Our worldwide research in oncology includes partnerships with more than 160 cancer centres. GSK is developing a new generation of patient focused cancer treatments in prevention, supportive care, chemotherapy and targeted therapies.
About the GSK CEEDD
GlaxoSmithKline is enhancing the way it discovers and develops drugs by creating a small, dedicated team that will feed the GSK pipeline solely through the efforts of its external alliances. The CEEDD (Centre of Excellence for External Drug Discovery) was formed as further validation of GSK’s strategy to create small, independent and accountable R&D teams (known as Centres of Excellence for Drug Discovery or CEDDs). In essence, the CEEDD is virtualising a portion of the GSK pipeline; namely from target to clinical proof-of-concept, by forming multiple risk-sharing/reward sharing alliances. Capitalising on the speed and efficiency of its collaborators will allow GSK to deliver pharmaceutical products faster to patients. For more information, visit the CEEDD at Click Here .
