## TL;DR

Fortrea, of Durham, North Carolina, is the contract research organisation spun out of Labcorp in 2023 that runs clinical trials for sponsors and keeps ties to Labcorp's central laboratory, which handles trial samples. Competing for oncology programmes against much larger rivals without its parent's balance sheet is its open question.
