CANINE Trial to Treat Gliomas at Angell is Part of Cancer Moonshot
Program

We are excited to be participating  in the CANINE trial. The
trial is evaluating combination immunotherapy for gliomas in pet dogs.
Dr. Melissa Chambers at University of Alabama -  Birmingham is
leading the study with help from Angell neurologists Drs. Jennifer
Michaels and Michele James and other participating veterinary
neurologists nationwide. 

Following surgery and placement of a catheter into the tumor bed, an
oncolytic virus is administered post-operatively as a single injection
via the catheter. Dogs are treated with an oral small molecule
inhibitor daily for 30 days. Dr. Chambers and her team are enrolling
humans with gliomas in ongoing parallel trials using the same
oncolytic virus. The study is part of the Cancer Moonshot to advance
treatment of cancers.

Otology in the Cat and Dog: A Clinician's Approach to Diagnostics and
Treatment

The structure of the ear in dogs and cats can make them more prone to
ear infections, but rarely is a primary cause of otitis externa. 

Chronic reoccurring otitis externa does not just occur at random. We
believe that there are numerous factors that can contribute to the
development, severity, and duration of otitis externa once the
inflammatory process is established.

Stay and Play vs. Scoop and Run: Emergency Scenarios and Areas for
Stabilization

When an emergency case enters your hospital doors, determining whether
to refer the patient to a specialty hospital immediately or stabilize
them first can be a critical decision. Heatstroke, gastric dilatation
volvulus (GDV), and flail chest are a few emergencies that can benefit
from specific stabilization efforts. Dr. Allison Allukian discusses
these conditions and more.
