Investigational Studies in
Client Owned Animals
Evidence that answers the questions that matter commercially, generated in animals living ordinary lives at home.
Every animal health product reaches a point where the science has to leave the lab and meet a real patient. That step is where most programs lose time and money, because study design, site selection and enrollment are treated as logistics rather than as strategy.
​
They are strategy. The evidence generated now is the evidence a sales team will be asked for in three years.
​
BonVet designs and conducts investigational studies in animals living at home with naturally occurring disease, enrolled by their owners, with their own veterinarian involved throughout.
HOW THESE STUDIES WORK
Animals are client-owned
Participants are pets, horses and working animals that already live with the condition being studied. They remain at home and keep their own veterinarian.
Enrollment is voluntary and informed
Owners choose to participate, receive a plain
language explanation of what is involved, and may withdraw at any time without affecting their animal's ongoing care.
The condition is naturally occurring
These are not induced models. Every participant is diagnosed before enrollment.
Oversight is independent.
Studies operate under [NAME THE APPLICABLE REGULATORY AND REVIEW FRAMEWORK], with protocols approved before any animal is enrolled.

ENROLLMENT IS WHERE STUDIES STALL
Most sponsors underestimate this step substantially. A protocol that reads cleanly on paper can sit for months because the inclusion criteria describe a patient who is common in the literature and rare in a waiting room.
​
Recruitment is not administration. It is a design problem, and it is considerably cheaper to solve before the protocol is final than after enrollment has stalled.
