Karma offers a bespoke service, from the preparation of clinical development plans through design, set-up & execution of clinical trials. Our expertise includes the design and execution of autologous and CAR-T cell therapy studies in Europe and North America.
The company was founded in 2012 by Dr Karen J Williams, who, while working as a Sponsor, had become increasingly frustrated by the inevitable constraints and rigidity smaller companies can experience being lost and forgotten in larger CRO’s. Utilizing her 30 years’ experience in pharma and CRO industries, Dr Williams started Karma Oncology to ensure smaller biotech’s get the service and attention they deserve. She has surrounded herself with like-minded professionals and built a team, who, like herself have a passion for this work and are nowledgeable, Adaptable, Reliable, Motivated and Accountable.
