Oncology-focused.
Highline Sciences is a specialized, full-service CRO and consultancy founded from within an oncology biotech to provide a better solution. We understand the gap between what you need and what you get from a traditional CRO and we’re here to improve the status quo.
Highline Sciences is now part of Tempus.

A fresh and unique approach.
Highline Sciences was built specifically to address the common problems that biotechs encounter with CROs. The combination of our corporate infrastructure, focus, and passion enables us to deliver higher-caliber, more engaged teams and allocate them appropriately to each project. This means that our Sponsors and research sites receive, and retain, A-team support and the attention they deserve from IND to market approval.
We believe that science has the power to save lives—and every day counts.
We help innovators run smart development programs to reach critical milestones quickly and cost-effectively. We understand your challenges because we’ve lived them and our services are designed to ensure you get exactly what you need with the flexibility required for complex & adaptive trial designs, globally, from Phase I to Phase III.

We are honest and transparent, in good days and bad. Every project we design is personal. We are truly invested in the success of our partners and clients from concept through execution.

Our visionary biotech partners strive to impact disease with cutting-edge science and we work alongside them, with unrelenting dedication.
We believe in the power of relationships.
We are an agile team of industry veterans with decades of experience supporting and leading clinical development at clinical site, CRO and Sponsor organizations. Our leadership has led multiple products from pre-IND to commercial approvals at biopharma companies as well as CROs. We recognize that the relationship between Sponsors, research sites and the outsourced team has been strained. We are passionate about improving the experience, quality and results for oncology-focused biotech and truly understand how to partner with industry and with clinical sites to execute a quality clinical trial with excellent customer service.
