CMO Locator

It's been a while since I've posted, and that is because I have been hidden away working on the very latest Kymanox product, CMO Locator.



CMO Locator is a free search engine specifically designed to help you find Biopharma Contract Manufacturing Organizations that are able to manufacture the Drug Product (API) or Drug Substance (Fill/Finish) that your biotech drug development process requires.

Recently we spent a good deal of time looking for a search engine that would help us identify the best CMO with the right capabilities for the drug development project of a large client. We realized that this search required far too much time and effort to even get to a "short list" of possible candidates. Since there wasn't a good search engine out there, we decided to build one! As a result, we are currently compiling a list of all of the production lines and capabilities of all of the Contract Manufacturing Organizations that we have come in contact with.



Our CMO Search Engine contains the following search options for Drug Substance (API):

Platform: Cell Culture, Microbial
Reactor Scale: 1-100L, 100L-2000L, 2000L-5000L, 5000L +
Bioreactor Process: Batch, Fed-Batch, Perfusion
Compliance Level: Phase I/II, Phase III, Commercial
Biosafety Level: BSL 1, BSL 2, BSL 3, BSL 4
Additional Services: Analytical Services, Cell Banking, Cell Line Development, Preclinical Manufacturing, Process Development, Viral Manufacturing
Regions: Asia, Europe, North America, South America, Australia/New Zealand

For Drug Product (Fill/Finish), you can search on:

Dosage Form: Liquid, Lyophilized
Batch Size: 1-5000, 5000-20000, 20000-50000, 50000+
Vial Size: 2ml, 3ml, 5ml, 10ml, 20ml, 20+ ml
Compliance Level: Phase I/II, Phase III, Commercial
Biosafety Level: BSL 1, BSL 2, BSL 3, BSL 4
Additional Services: Analytical Services, Formulation Development, Preclinical Manufacturing, Prefilled Syringes, Stability Studies, Viral Manufacturing
Regions: Asia, Europe, North America, South America, Australia/New Zealand

If you own or represent a CMO, please follow this link to add or request access to your CMO profile (it's free for base level "Active" listings):

We at Kymanox are very excited about this new Biopharma CMO search engine and are striving to make it the only place to come on the web to find your next CMO. We hope it will serve the biopharma industry well.
