Canis lupus familiaris
Dogs
Our canine work looks at mobility, post-operative recovery, inflammation, wound healing and gastrointestinal protection, where owners and veterinarians already track outcomes closely.
Vetria Peptide Sciences
Healing is a signal.
Animal health focus
Peptide science for animal health.
Vetria Peptide Sciences evaluates peptide-based therapeutic opportunities for dogs, cats and performance horses.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids. They are studied widely for the roles they play in biological signalling, including repair, inflammation and tissue maintenance.
Vetria evaluates where that science fits veterinary practice. We work one species and one defined need at a time. All work is at an early evaluation stage.
Felis catus
Cats
Feline evaluation centers on chronic inflammatory and gastrointestinal needs, and takes the distinct metabolism, dosing and handling realities of cats as a starting condition rather than an afterthought.
Equus caballus
Performance horses
Equine evaluation concentrates on tendon, ligament and soft tissue injury, plus wound care, within the training, competition and welfare realities of working horses.
Proposed areas of focus
Seven needs, grouped into three areas.
Each area pairs a defined veterinary need with the species it applies to. Selection is driven by whether the need is measurable in practice and whether peptide signalling is a sensible place to look.
Showing 7 of 7 areas
01
Mobility and recovery
Orthopedic and soft tissue needs where recovery time and function are already measured in practice.
- Dogs
Post-operative orthopedic recovery
- Performance horses
Tendon and ligament injury
- Performance horses
Soft tissue repair
- Dogs
Inflammation associated with osteoarthritis
02
Inflammation and gastrointestinal health
Chronic conditions where current management is long running and tolerability matters as much as effect.
- Cats
Chronic inflammatory disease
- Cats and dogs
Gastrointestinal mucosal protection
03
Skin and wound care
Surface repair needs common to companion and working animals.
- Dogs and performance horses
Topical wound healing
Areas under evaluation. Program selection and development plans remain subject to scientific review.
Development approach
How we decide what to pursue.
Peptide signalling is well studied in human and animal biology. The open question in veterinary medicine is which needs it fits, in which species, and on what evidence. That question sets our order of work.
01
Species first
Candidate selection, formulation and delivery start from the physiology, tolerability and daily care realities of the species in question. A molecule that suits a horse rarely suits a cat unchanged.
02
Evidence we can point to
Every program needs a defined veterinary need, endpoints a clinician already measures and controlled evidence appropriate to the proposed use. We hold decisions until that evidence exists.
03
Built with partners
Vetria intends to work with animal health companies, veterinary practices and research groups as programs are selected and development plans take shape.
Leadership and advisors
Experience across science, medicine and finance.
Vetria brings together drug development, veterinary medicine, regulatory affairs, elite sports medicine and public company finance. Nine people, each with a defined role in how programs are chosen and evaluated.
