Twelve Years of Accessible Clinical Trial Support: Inside the Prima Nexus Clinical Research Portfolio
Prima Nexus built a practical, flexible and affordable clinical research support team for universities, start-ups and local innovators that do not need a large CRO.
· Company news
KUALA LUMPUR, 21 July 2026: Twelve years ago, Prima Nexus saw a gap in Malaysia's clinical trial market. Many researchers and companies wanted to run clinical studies, but the cost was simply too high. Not every project needed a large contract research organisation (CRO); many only needed the right team and the right support. So Prima Nexus built one.
Built for the projects a large CRO overlooks
The aim was simple: make clinical trials accessible, especially for universities, start-ups and local innovators, with a clinical research support team that is practical, flexible and affordable.
A growing record across health areas
Over the years, the team has supported successful studies across many areas, including gut health, healthy ageing, cardiovascular health, prediabetes, glucose metabolism, fatty liver disease and endometriosis.
Prima Nexus supports Phase I to IV biomarker work, feasibility and site logistics, so that a trial keeps moving. Studies can also draw on the company's ELISA and Luminex biomarker platform and its regulatory and grant support.
“Every completed study started with one simple idea: research should be accessible to everyone with a great innovation. We are proud of how far we have come, and even more excited for what is ahead.”
