The Alliance for Multispecialty Research, LLC (“AMR”) is a fully integrated network of clinical research sites that performs clinical research trials to support pharmaceutical companies in developing new drugs. Founded in 1994, the Alliance for Multispecialty Research served as the hub for an alliance of high-quality research sites that wished to share marketing, business development and best practices for clinical research. AMR staff provided business development and marketing for the alliance members, and in certain cases provided central budgeting and contracting for studies that used the majority of the AMR sites. Most of the sites adopted the same or complimentary Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), trial management software, and best practices for research, and collaborated on multi-site projects. In 2016, 11 of the members, representing 19 locations, agreed to merge their businesses into a single limited-liability company.

Clara Diagnostics is developing the Exosome Sorting System (ExoSS), a high-throughput microfluidic system for the isolation and purification of exosomes. The company aims to launch the first microfluidic exosome sorting device (ExoSS) into the marketplace for automated, high-specificity, and high throughput preparation of exact exosome subtypes from a variety of biofluids.
The ExoSS system performs isolation 100x faster than ultracentrifugation and able to extract greater than 90% of exosomes with an isolation purity greater than 90%. ExoSS rapidly runs parallel samples continuously, resulting in a platform ideal for large volume processing. Designed for low skill automation, ExoSS has the advantage of extracting all or only specific
types of exosomes from the biological source.
An On Site Non-Clinical Isolation Service (ExoSS OnSite) was launched in November 2018 by the company utilizing the existing ExoSS system.
Clara Diagnostics is focused on establishing strategic partnerships for development in diagnostic and therapeutic applications, equipment manufacturing, antibody sourcing, distribution, sales and marketing.
