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.
