The veterinary clinical trials software market is quite small, has low competition, and is in demand. It contrasts with the human clinical trials software market (projected CAGR of over 13%), and the broader veterinary clinical trials market, which is service-based rather than software-focused. However, the success of startups like FidoCure (animal cancer) that has raised $17.1M, demonstrates the strong investor interest.
Veterinary clinical trials software is a type of veterinary software in the form of a database web application that matches veterinary patient data with certain types of diseases (e.g., canine cancer) and corresponding medications. After treating such patients, the software collects outcome data as analytical reports, which are then transferred to relevant drug development and pharmaceutical companies. The core of this business essentially boils down to conducting contract research on behalf of those companies.
Thus, the key functions of such systems are (1) databases to determine which pets might be good to recruit for trials and (2) reports with testing results.
Let's take a more detailed look at how veterinary clinical trials software works.
This topic is well described in the Nature journal, so here we will provide only a summary.
Client-owned pets with confirmed naturally occurring diagnoses are integrated into the veterinary clinical trials database from veterinary care centers, veterinary hospitals, etc., along with the results of DNA sequencing.
Veterinarians then gain access to targeted experimental drugs/therapies from pharmaceutical companies, which can be prescribed to their patients based on DNA sequencing results.
Medications are administered to dogs by their owners at home, and clinics later collect the treatment results.
Subsequently, such proprietary clinical trial management software gathers clinical updates and outcomes, providing this data back to pharmaceutical companies. Over time, all findings are then integrated into a proprietary dataset that improves the predictive accuracy of preclinical testing for drug development, informing pharmaceutical discovery, drug label extensions, and biomarker-driven therapies.
