A new cancer immunotherapy ("the Yale Vaccine") developed by researchers at Yale U is being evaluated in this study led by Therajan LLC

Potential benefits of cancer immunotherapy for pups

  • May stop or slow recurrence and spreading of cancer
  • May help when surgery is not possible, or if chemotherapy doesn't work
  • May reverse cancer metastasis

How does it work?

  • Safely activates the immune system against cancer cells that are over-expressing EGFR and HER2 proteins.
  • The vaccine has already been given to over 600 dogs. Minimum side effect reported.
  • May help with many different cancer types. Preliminary data for osteosarcoma and hemangiosarcoma published.

Locations in:

  • WA
  • UT
  • OH
  • PA
  • AZ
  • CA
  • IL
  • VA

Therajan, the company that will be offering the Yale EGFR/HER2 commercially once it receives USDA approval (any day now!) has a new website so you can learn more about it and find out where to get it for your dog. Once approved it should be available more broadly beyond the current limited study sites.

Just a note that the Yale EGFR/HER2 study is now offering a booster of the immunotherapy at 10-12mos after the initial treatment. It’s an optional phase of the study that you’re not obliged to continue in after the initial year study, but if a pup benefits in that initial year it’s worth considering.
