A new partnership between Anivive Lifesciences and Basepaws has formed to study the genetics of feline diabetes. Cats meeting the study criteria are eligible to receive complimentary genetic testing. Your participation in this study is an opportunity to support scientific exploration of the genes thought to be involved with diabetes. This information will help researchers develop new diagnostic tests, suggest possible preventative measures and explore new treatments for this common feline disease.

Cardiology

Investigational

Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a disease of heart muscle that results in a decreased ability of the heart to pump blood. The prognosis for DCM is often poor, with a less than 50% survival rate one year after clinical signs develop, unless a reversible underlying cause is identified. There is no available cure for Dilated Cardiomyopathy, current techniques focus on extending survival time as long as possible. However the focus of this clinical trial is to evaluate a potential curative treatment for cardiomyopathy in the Doberman Pinscher.

Infectious

Dr. Gary Whittaker, of the Whittaker Lab, in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine, is continuing the regional study of the feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) virus and how it infects cats. The aim is to reach a better understanding of this virus in order to formulate a successful method of treatment and to work towards a future diagnostic test.

Oncology

Hemangiosarcoma is the most common splenic cancer diagnosed in dogs. The standard of care treatment is splenectomy (surgery) followed by doxorubicin chemotherapy, but long-term survival remains poor. We are continuously looking for additional well-tolerated treatments that may prolong survival for dogs with this disease.

Investigating a New Treatment for Hemangiosarcoma

This study will help us to determine if dogs that receive temozolomide and doxorubicin do better than with doxorubicin alone.

Lymphoma is one of the most commonly encountered cancers in the dog. The incidence of canine lymphoma has steadily increased with approximately 84 per 10,000 dogs diagnosed each year. This randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, GCP pivotal field study is evaluating the effectiveness and safety of verdinexor for the treatment of naïve or first relapse stages II, III and IV lymphoma in client owned dogs. Diagnosis of lymphoma must be confirmed by cytology or biopsy for the dog to be eligible for this study. Dogs will be randomized to receive the investigational veterinary product or a placebo treatment (tablets) to be administered with food twice weekly at least 72 hours apart for 8 weeks.  After receiving treatment in-hospital on Day 0, the dog will be required to return to the study site on Days 7, 14, 28, 42, and 56 for follow up evaluation visits. Owners will be required to report and record abnormal daily observations and dosing using a phone app at home throughout the study.

If your dog is one of the many every year diagnosed with lymphoma join us in advancing the treatment of canine lymphoma.

Diabetes mellitus is an important health problem in both dogs and people. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) in people is caused by an attack of the body’s own immune system on cells in the pancreas. Diabetes in dogs is thought to be similar in some ways to T1D in people, but there is still much more to learn about the causes of diabetes in dogs as well as better ways to prevent and treat the disease. The purpose of this study is to learn more about metabolism and immune function in diabetic dogs.

Immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) is a common disease that affects all breeds of dogs and can be fatal. In the severe form of the disease complement activation causes red blood cells to be broken down in the bloodstream.

At present no therapies for IMHA target this complement activation. We have confirmed that an FDA licensed formulation of C1-INH is safe for dogs and effectively inhibits canine complement mediated hemolysis. We hope this will translate into a beneficial effect in dogs with intravascular red cell breakdown due to IMHA.

Complement Inhibition in Canine IMHA

We aim to assess the efficacy of C1-INH for management of intravascular IMHA. This is a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial which means patients will be randomized to receive either C1-INH or a saline placebo infusion three times.

Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are tumors that arise from various skin and connective tissues under the skin, such as fat, muscle, cartilage, nerves, or small blood vessels. These tumors can occur from any site on the body and commonly regrow after tumor removal. While surgical removal and other therapies are available to treat these tumors, little is known as to why the occur in the first place. Dr. Andrew Miller and his lab are collecting samples of canine soft tissue sarcomas in order to determine their RNA molecules, otherwise known as transcriptomes. This information will one day lead to new treatments and preventives for these tumors.

Internal Medicine

The clinical signs in some cats with chronic enteropathy (chronic vomiting and/or diarrhea) can be reversed with dietary management using a specially formulated diet. It is not clear why some cats respond to diet, or what the optimal composition of the diet for cats with chronic enteropathy should be. We want to know if diets containing proteins that are selected to minimize immune responses and fortified in Vitamin B12 and natural anti-inflammatory agents (prebiotics and curcumin) are better than conventional diets for cats with chronic enteropathy.

Dietary Trial for Cats with IBD or GI Lymphoma

The diagnosis of chronic enteropathy can include cats with chronic vomiting and/or diarrhea, cats with biopsy-diagnosed IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) and cats with small cell GI lymphoma.

Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) is a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when the body produces high levels of ketones which causes the blood to be more acid than is normal. This can be triggered by infection or other illness. It can be life threatening and treatment requires hospitalization with IV (intravenous) fluids and insulin therapy.

The usual treatment of DKA is to give regular insulin intravenously based on a sliding scale relative to their blood glucose level in addition to other standard supportive care therapies. We would like to investigate if a different (novel) scale for insulin therapy is more effective. This novel administration protocol more closely mimics the insulin regimen in human medicine. Our goal is to find a protocol that results in faster resolution of the DKA state which would result in shorter hospitalization times and lower costs to owners.

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and pulse-dosed radiofrequency (PRF) are therapies used in people to treat chronic pain, including osteoarthritis (OA) pain. Neither has been researched in dogs for chronic pain management but could be highly effective, long-lasting means of relieving OA pain when other treatments fail.
