Center for Image-Guided Animal Therapy

We are just thrilled that Penny, who has metastatic osteosarcoma, is continuing to do well almost 80 days after treatment with a radiopharmaceutical therapy targeted to osteosarcoma. We are looking for other dogs that have failed conventional amputation and chemotherapy for treatment at Center for Image-Guided Animal Therapy. We are so happy that Penny could enjoy this lovely sunny day and appreciate her owners allowed her to participate in our trial. Each day is a gift. If you know someone who might want to participate in our clinical trial, please contact us.

Darby continues to amaze us as she carries on like she never had a brain tumor. We wish all our clinical trial patients could have an outcome like this. Makes a whole new meaning of

Meet Luna, the first dog in our osteosarcoma clinical trial for dogs with metastatic bone cancer (spread beyond the primary tumor). Luna had amputation and chemotherapy at The Ohio State University Veterinary Medical Center, for osteosarcoma but, unfortunately, developed spread to her lungs. Luna, a 5-year old St. Bernard, was treated with a special radiotherapy called, "Actinium-225-Naxitamab" given in a vein at CIGAT. She came into CIGAT for her one-week checkup on Monday. This radiotherapy has a monoclonal antibody that binds to osteosarcoma to deliver powerful doses of radiation directly to tumor cells. Fingers crossed that it will work!

Cassin is a sweet Greyhound/Irish Wolfhound/Mastiff mix that is undergoing amputation for her presumed osteosarcoma today after being treated with immunotherapy as part of a clinical trial at CIGAT. We want to thank Canine Cancer Alliance for helping defray part of the cost of amputation at VRC Malvern. She will also need chemotherapy after amputation and has started a go-fund-me campaign to assist her retired owner: https://www.gofundme.com/f/cassins-fight-for-a-cure-more-time-with-her-dad

Most people who have pets already know that life is better with a pet, but who would have thought it was worth $90,000/year?

Having a cat or a dog to keep you company could boost your wellbeing as much as being married or meeting up regularly with friends and relatives, new research suggests.

Lovely story about Darby the Boston Terrier, who was in our chemo-radiation therapy brain tumor trial. She has achieved the highest level in the American Kennel Club dog agility. Kudos. Lots to be Thankful for at Thanksgiving. https://www.whro.org/arts-culture/2024-11-26/the-heart-and-soul-to-fight-a-virginia-beach-boston-terrier-overcomes-cancer-to-earn-one-of-agilitys-top-achievements

Just love getting pictures like this of Lyra who is living her life over 2 years after her original osteosarcoma diagnosis. Dogs who participate in our clinical trials become life long friends for us.

So we often try to take pictures of our cuter patients. However, Mellie had her own opinion of taking her snapshot. 😁

Zeke completed his fifth and final radiation therapy along with chemotherapy for his presumed brain tumor as part of our glioma clinical trial at the Center for Image-Guided Animal Therapy. Happy to report he is doing well, and we wish him all the best. Next update after his MRI in 3 months!
