Huma R&D

Huma R&D is a Japan-based private contract research organization focused on human clinical testing for foods, supplements, and cosmetics rather than drug discovery or therapeutic product development. The company supports study design and execution, evidence generation, paper writing and submission support, and preparation of application materials related to Japan’s functional food claims framework. Its services are positioned around food CRO and human trial support, with particular emphasis on customized studies, cognitive function testing, subject recruitment, and use of an in-house subject management system. Huma R&D appears to operate as part of the broader Huma Group and serves consumer health and functional food companies seeking clinical substantiation and regulatory support.
