Passion, Plants, and Phase III: Devonian Health Group Is on a Mission to Disrupt Inflammation Therapy
While the industry might be dominated by synthetic compounds, billion-dollar VC funds, and long, uncertain development timelines, Devonian Health Group Inc. is proving there is another way. As a publicly traded company, under the leadership of its founder and CEO, Dr. André P. Boulet, Devonian has quietly advanced multi-target drug candidates and a cutting-edge cosmeceutical line, backed not by institutional investors but by a network of Canadian family offices made up of dentists, physicians, engineers, and entrepreneurs. Boulet's journey to this unconventional success story reads like a masterclass in risk, reinvention, and scientific conviction. "I'm a venture capitalist in my heart," Boulet says. "But I'm also a scientist. When I saw the anti-inflammatory results of this botanical extract technology from a university agriculture project, I knew this had real potential. So, I followed my instinct and took the risk." With a PhD in physiology-endocrinology, postdoctoral training in biochemistry and biophysics, and experience leading cardiovascular clinical research programs, Boulet's transition from academia to venture capital was swift. After climbing the pharmaceutical ladder and managing funds in Montreal, he exited his partnership and launched what would become Devonian Health Group in 2015. At its core, Devonian is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, with its lead drug candidate, Thykamine ™, poised to enter Phase III clinical trials for atopic dermatitis and soon pediatric eczema. "Traditional pharma was built on the 'silver bullet,' one target, one mechanism," Boulet explains. "But now science is evolving. We're moving toward therapies that modulate multiple pathways. That's exactly what Thykamine does without shutting down important immune functions like TNF-alpha. That's why our efficacy is high, but side effects are minimal." What sets Devonian apart isn't just its marquee drug but the platform behind it. The company's patented SUPREX™ technology allows for water-based extraction, purification, and stabilization of Active Botanical Ingredients (ABIs) from plants and algae. These complexes modulate inflammation at the genetic level across multiple diseases, offering a broad pipeline of possibilities. To date, Thykamine™ has demonstrated strong results in its Phase II trial. Both gastrointestinal (ulcerative colitis) and dermatological (eczema) models have shown significant symptom relief and safety comparable to placebo. Remarkably, all this has been achieved without traditional VC backing. Boulet credits this to his deep network of entrepreneurial allies and his belief in business-first partnerships. "We've raised funds to advance to Phase III, built an extraction and production facility, and kept the company debt-free," he says. While the pharmaceutical arm garners headlines, Devonian's cosmeceutical division is equally ambitious. Operating under the Purgenesis™ brand, the company has developed a premium line of anti-aging creams containing its patented botanical ingredient R-Spinasome®, a photosynthetic cell extract with dynamic antioxidant properties. What makes Purgenesis™ unusual in the beauty space is its clinical rigor. Devonian has conducted peer-reviewed, pharma-grade clinical trials on the entire product line, something virtually unheard of in the cosmeceutical industry. "We've scientifically proven a reduction in wrinkles," says Boulet. "Not just pretty pictures, but peer-reviewed, published data. We're the only ones doing cosmeceuticals the pharma way." With day, night, and eye creams already developed and a professional-grade serum in the pipeline, Devonian is currently seeking commercial partners to bring Purgenesis™ to a global market hungry for results-backed skincare. Perhaps the most unusual aspect of Devonian's success is how personal it all feels. There are no Silicon Valley investors or hedge fund suits behind the curtain, just a network of entrepreneurs who believe in the mission. "Working with family offices is stimulating," Boulet says. "You get input from pharmacists, dentists, and industrialists. We face challenges together, and we have fun doing it." The company's headquarters in Québec includes a full-scale extraction and production facility, providing complete traceability from seed to pill. This vertical integration helps with both cutting costs, yes, but also ensuring product consistency. For Boulet, the journey has been one of passion and perseverance. "In life, there's always a risk," he reflects. "But if you surround yourself with the right people and believe in what you're building, that risk becomes your fuel. That's what Devonian is about: science, instinct, and community." As the company readies for Phase III trials in both pharmaceuticals and final-stage commercialization of its skincare line, Devonian Health Group stands as a testament to the power of conviction and the potential of plants to reshape the future of medicine.

Devonian Announces Positive in Vivo Results of Thykamine™ on Gene Expression Associated With Fibrosis
QUEBEC CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb 18, 2025-- Devonian Health Group Inc. (' Devonian ' or the ' Company ') ( TSXV: GSD; OTCQB: DVHGF), a clinical stage corporation focused on developing unique solutions to inflammatory diseases, today announced positive results from a gene analysis conducted as part of in vivo study in STAM™ mouse model. Thykamine™ was administered orally, at doses of 0.5 mg/kg, 5.0 mg/kg and 50.0 mg/kg once a day for a period of three (3) weeks. Thykamine™ treatment was associated down regulation of key genes associated with the progression of inflammatory diseases toward fibrosis. These include inhibitory (%) effects on inflammatory-related genes and fibrosis-related genes namely: Act2: up to 57%, TGFβ : up to 49.3 % (p<0.05), Ctgf: up to 44.2%, Ccl2: up to 77.28% (p<0.005), MMP9: up to 58.2% (p<0.005), Timp1: up to 73.5% (p<0.0005), Ccr2: up to 70.8% (p<0.0005), Socs3: up to 46.7%, SerpinF: up to 62.1% (p<0.05), IFNγ: up to 73.1% (p<0.05. Results will be published in a peer-reviewed scientific publication in 2025. Fibrosis is the common and final pathological outcome of chronic inflammatory diseases. Several genes are associated with different fibrotic diseases such as eye fibrosis, heart fibrosis, hepatic fibrosis, intestinal fibrosis, lung fibrosis, pancreas fibrosis, renal fibrosis and skin fibrosis 1. Most genes involved in the overlapping fibrosis diseases 1,2,3,4,5 were downregulated following Thykamine™ treatment expanding its potential anti-fibrotic effect to several organs. 'The changes in gene expression observed following treatment with Thykamine™ provide further evidence of its potential benefit not only as anti-inflammatory medication and related diseases but may expand its potential use as antifibrotic medication for many chronic diseases in multiple organs,' said Dr. Andre P. Boulet, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of the Company. About Fibrosis 1,2,3,4,5 A complex physiological process, fibrosis encompasses both acute and chronic inflammatory disorders. It is characterized by an excessive buildup of fibrous connective tissue in and around damaged or inflamed tissues, which results in the production of permanent scars. In several organs, including the skin, heart, lungs, gut, liver, and kidneys, fibrosis is the final stage of chronic illness. Fibrotic tissue pathologic buildup leads to a loss of structural integrity and function, which raises morbidity and mortality. About Thykamine™ Thykamine™, the first pharmaceutical product issued from Devonian's SUPREX™ platform, is a highly innovative product for the prevention and treatment of health conditions related to inflammation and oxidative stress including ulcerative colitis, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other autoimmune disorders. The anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and immunomodulatory properties of Thykamine™ have been demonstrated by a considerable number of in vitro and in vivo studies as well as in a Phase IIa clinical study in patients with mild-to-moderate distal ulcerative colitis and in a large phase II study in adult patients with mild-to-moderate Atopic Dermatitis. Both Thykamine™ and SUPREX™ platform are protected by several patents in North America, Europe and Asia.
