It said the work was expected to be completed this calendar year.
The precise value of the contract could not be disclosed due to commercial confidentiality, but the board said it was around 20% of the company's last full-year total income to 30 June 2019.
"We are delighted to have been awarded this contract by Astellas, a global pharmaceutical company with a strong oncology focus," said chief executive officer Dr Jim Millen.
