This was on our Puppy Up page (Canine cancer fund raiser). I found the article pretty interesting. I had read about Pac-1 when I was treating Sassy but it was too far to go to Univ IL every week or so to be in the study and they wouldn't let Dr Boyer do it.

Thanks for sharing Michelle, we thought it was a great article too.
Ultimately, fighting canine cancers and translating those insights to humans will require integrating clinical trials for pets into translational cancer research and development. Coordinating such trials is the work of the Comparative Oncology Trials Consortium (COTC), a network of 20 academic comparative oncology centers managed by the Comparative Oncology Program, a resource launched by the NCI’s Center for Cancer Research.
