Dogs with hemangiosarcoma in a new clinical trial

Corrie Painter — Thu, 29 Nov 2012 03:26:40 +0000

Meet Memphis, the first dog enrolled in a new clinical trial aimed at curing hemangiosarcoma ( angiosarcoma, only in dogs). Dr. Jaime Modiano at the Univerity of Minnesota is overseeing this trial, which uses an investigational new drug that has been designed to specifically kill malignant hemangiosarcoma cells. Positive results from this trial could pave the way for trials in humans. For more information regarding Dr. Modiano’s research, please visit: http://www.cancer.umn.edu/research/profiles/modiano.html

The first ever clinical trial for Angiosarcoma is about to begin!

Corrie Painter — Sun, 17 Jun 2012 11:43:15 +0000

Because angiosarcoma is so rare, clinical trials designed specifically for this disease are typically not thought to be able to recruit enough patients. Angiosarcoma Awareness has been instrumental in allowing doctors to see that there is a population of angiosarcoma patients large enough to design trials. They have initiated the first NCI clinical trial for angiosarcoma. Please check out the link:
