Licensed research laboratory  ·  Regulated & audited

Two agents. One rigorous question.

KO Research Labs runs protocol-driven studies on the controlled combination of ketamine and opioids: how the two agents interact, how dosing frameworks are built, and which parameters hold up when a study is repeated.

About the lab

A controlled environment for a complex, highly regulated area of pharmacology.

KO Research Labs was set up to study one question: what happens when ketamine and opioids are combined under controlled conditions? We run dual-agent studies in regulated laboratory and clinical research settings, and every activity is designed around our licensing requirements, ethical standards and regulatory guidelines.

We don't treat patients. There is no public clinic, no clinical care and no direct patient programme. What we offer credentialed professionals and institutional partners is a controlled research environment for legitimate investigation.

Research focus

What we investigate

Three connected lines of inquiry, all run under controlled conditions and documented so that another lab could repeat them.

Pharmacological interactions

We characterise how the two agents behave together: additive, synergistic or antagonistic effects, measured against single-agent baselines.

  • Interaction profiles
  • Baselines
  • Mechanism

Structured dosing frameworks

We build systematic, pre-registered frameworks for ratios, sequencing and timing, each one specified in full before any study begins.

  • Ratios
  • Sequencing
  • Pre-registration

Controlled parameters

We study the variables that decide whether a result holds: environment, timing, measurement and controls, all tracked so the findings can be reproduced.

  • Variables
  • Controls
  • Reproducibility

The protocol

Rigor, written down before it's done.

Every study follows the same five-stage path. No stage is skipped, and every stage leaves a record.

  1. Stage 01

    Protocol design

    We set out the hypotheses, endpoints, controls and analysis plan in full before any work starts.

  2. Stage 02

    Ethics & regulatory review

    Each study is reviewed independently and checked against licensing conditions and applicable guidelines.

  3. Stage 03

    Controlled execution

    Credentialed staff run the study in a licensed environment, and every material is tracked with chain-of-custody records.

  4. Stage 04

    Thorough documentation

    We keep a complete, time-stamped record of methods, deviations and raw data, so the audit trail has no gaps.

  5. Stage 05

    Replication & reporting

    We write our methods so that others can reproduce them, and we report results the same way whether they are positive, negative or null.

Partnership model

Laboratory precision & clinical relevance

Qualified scientists

Pharmacologists and laboratory researchers handle study design, assay development and analysis.

Licensed clinicians

Licensed clinicians check that each study's questions and parameters make sense clinically, under appropriate oversight.

Institutional partners

Universities, research institutes and regulated organisations use our controlled environment for their own approved studies.

Scope & boundaries

Authorised scientific inquiry. Nothing else.

We do

  • Run licensed, protocol-driven laboratory research
  • Collaborate with credentialed scientists and clinicians
  • Provide a controlled environment for approved studies
  • Document, audit and report every stage

We do not

  • Offer public treatment services
  • Provide clinical care
  • Run direct patient programmes
  • Sell or supply controlled substances
