About Quincy Animal Health
Quincy Animal Health is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel therapeutics to treat age-related changes in memory, cognitive performance and related diseases of aging pets. The Company’s products focus on alleviating the consequences of impaired calcium homeostasis – an imbalance of calcium ions commonly thought to be related to neurodegenerative conditions such as Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS). The Company’s first product, Neutricks brand dietary supplement (apoaequorin), is now available for sale by veterinarians.
Neutricks® is backed by research that shows it helps keep brain cells alive longer. Just like people, dogs can experience serious age-related cognitive disorders similar to Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. A dog that seems strangely distant, confused, or disoriented, may be suffering from Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS). More than 28 million pets (dogs and cats) in the U.S. suffer from CDS and existing supplements or therapeutics which target CDS has limited effectiveness. We know that the calcium signaling mechanism in humans is the same in animals. Independent research and veterinarian testimonials have reported that Neutricks® has positive benefits on animals with CDS.
As veterinary care increases the life span of our pets, the senior pet wellness market will grow. The pet-nutritional market was valued at $2.1 billion dollars in 2007 and 43% of this figure is from the sale of pet supplements alone. Sales of pet supplements are expected to reach $1.7 billion by 2012. There is growing demand for new and effective products to meet the needs of older pets. Better primary medical care has led to longer-lived dogs and cats, and a subsequent increase in the prevalence of CDS. In a study at the University of California-Davis, 62% of 11- to 16-year-old dogs showed signs in at least one category of CDS. In a survey of pet owners, nearly half of dogs age 8 and older showed at least one sign associated with CDS. The Veterinary Journal published a recent study of pets seen by veterinarians in whom they estimated that 14.2 percent of older pets presented with CDS yet only 1.9% were receiving treatment.
