QPS Launches New Leukopak and Cell Therapy Products Facility
Clinical Research Supports Economic Growth and Development, While Making a Global Difference
QPS Missouri is a division of QPS Holdings LLC, a global Clinical Research Organization (CRO) that conducts studies on behalf of pharmaceutical and biotech companies for the development of new and existing pharmaceutical products. This new Leukopak and Cell Therapy products donation and processing center will be housed in the same building as the new, state-of-the-art Screening and Recruitment Center that opened in July 2022, located at 2025 W. Sunshine Street, Springfield, MO. Study participants and blood product donors are paid a stipend for their participation in these Clinical Research activities. These stipends benefit the study participants and donors and, therefore, the local economy.
“Our participants and donors are a key part of the success of QPS in Springfield, Missouri and they continue to make a difference by helping advance drug development research,” states Brendon Bourg, Vice President, Early Phase Clinical/Head of Administration QPS Missouri. “To have the opportunity and ability to provide this type of supplemental income to our local community, while providing a valuable service to our pharmaceutical and biotech clients is something we (QPS) are honored to be a part of.”
Located in Springfield, QPS Missouri has been conducting clinical research studies for over 30 years, with the help of more than 50,000 study participants. In addition to the new Cell Therapy facilities, the Springfield campus houses five independent clinics with more than 240 beds, a pharmacy with a retention area, local and central CAP/CLIA safety lab, a clinical trial kit processing area, and a 2,500 square foot negative pressure room.
QPS has always been on the front line of clinical research in all areas of pharmaceutical and biotech drug development. Since opening its doors in Springfield in 1994, QPS Missouri has conducted more than 2,000 Phase I FDA-regulated studies and paid over $50 million to local participants and donors.
