Projectdetails

Introduction

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in dogs is a common but poorly managed chronic condition causing immense emotional and financial distress to pet owners.

Background

Based on the positive results of antibodies to treat IBD in humans, they have been proposed for dogs. However, instead of investigating a new drug specific for them, some antibodies developed for other purposes and species have been adapted (petization). This can trigger immune responses in pets, yielding ineffective therapies and causing further health complications.

Our Solution

At Adivo, we have developed and validated the CAESAR platform, which is the first fully canine phage-display library to generate therapeutic antibodies specific for dogs. This platform overcomes the limitations of current petization techniques.

Project Goals

Now we aim to use this technology to develop and validate an effective drug to treat IBD in dogs.

Expected Outcomes

This project will bring a cumulative profit of €41 million in the first five years of commercialization, an ROI of 14, and will hire over 15 professionals.
