When the Owner Is Your Instrument: Measuring Whether a Treatment Actually Works 

In a companion animal study, your patient can’t tell you whether the treatment worked. The only read on whether a drug is doing its job comes from an owner watching at home, which makes your endpoint the most fragile part of the whole study.

Get it wrong, and a drug that genuinely works can still fail to show it.

On June 30, Tommy Jackson sat down with Lesley Rausch-Derra, DVM, a drug developer who has taken owner-reported endpoints through FDA approval, to dig into how you build one that holds up.

In this session, we covered:

  • What makes an owner questionnaire strong enough to build a study on

  • How to keep owner-collected data clean, and get a regulator to accept it

  • Where wearables and objective measures actually help, and where they don’t
