Clinical Study for Cats with Mammary Cancer - Information for referring veterinarians

 

Why refer your patients?

  • The therapy (GCN2-IN-6) has been carefully tested in preclinical studies and is well-tolerated.
  • Your referred patients will receive standard surgical care plus the investigational therapy.
  • Participation contributes valuable data for advancing cancer treatments in both cats and humans.

Study design highlights

  • Neo-adjuvant and adjuvant therapy administered around the time of mastectomy.

  • Safety and efficacy are continuously monitored.

  • Feline mammary adenocarcinoma is a validated model for TNBC research.

Referral process

  • Eligible cats: cats diagnosed with mammary tumors, eligible for surgery.

  • As referring veterinarians, you can retain primary responsibility for routine care; the study team coordinates treatment administration and follow-up.

  • Participation is voluntary, and owners can withdraw at any time.

Impact:

By referring cats to this study, you are helping advance cutting-edge cancer research, improve therapeutic options, and potentially enhance outcomes for both feline and human patients.
