Metabolomics Trial to Evaluate for Systemic Consequences of Intestinal Dysbiosis
ClosedThe intestinal microbiota are highly functional, with a combined genome (termed the microbiome) that is approximately 130-160 times larger than the human or canine genome. The microbiome is a highly functional organ and produces approximately 1,000 different metabolites, many of which have systemic effects in the dog.

ORBITS Clinical Study
OpenDespite years of active research in the field, high mortality rates associated with sepsis have remained unchanged over the last three decades; we aim to change this!

Pneumonia Pathogen Analysis
OpenPneumonia (infection in the lungs) is a common diagnosis in dogs and cats and can be caused by a variety of pathogens (i.e., bacteria, viruses, fungal organisms). Collecting fluid samples from the lungs of patients with pneumonia allows for tests to be performed that can identify the organism causing the infection.

Safety and Effectiveness of Long-Acting Intra-Articular and Peri-Neural Injections for the Management of Elbow Pain in Dogs
OpenThis is an exploratory study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of concomitant intraarticular (IA) and peri-neural (PN) injections of an investigational veterinary product for the control of elbow pain in dogs. This 28-day study also includes a long term follow up at 3 and 6 months.

Minimally Invasive Metastasectomy in Canines (MIMIC)
OpenFollowing removal of the primary tumor and adjuvant chemotherapy, the development of lung metastasis is the most common cause of mortality in dogs with osteosarcoma. A distinctive feature of lung metastases of osteosarcoma in human patients is the surprising benefit that can result from surgical resection of the lung nodules. The use of surgery to

Atopic Dermatitis Clinical Trial
ClosedWheat Ridge Animal Hospital is participating in a clinical trial for a potential new, once-daily medicine for the treatment of atopic dermatitis in dogs. We are no longer enrolling dogs that meet eligibility requirements, including some restrictions on recent medications and therapies. Dogs, at least 12 months of age, diagnosed with atopic dermatitis may be

K9 Tumor And Blood Sampling for Osteosarcoma and Oral Melanoma (KABOOM)
OpenNaturally occurring cancers in dogs have been as used as models for human cancers for many reasons; however, the genomic profiles of many of these cancers are still incompletely understood. Further definition of these genomic landscapes will allow for improved development of novel diagnostics and therapeutics to diagnose and treat these cancers. The objective of this

Tolerability of Oral Paclitaxel in Cancer-Bearing Dogs
ClosedResearch Type Ethos Discovery De Novo Study Description Paclitaxel is a human chemotherapeutic that has demonstrated a broad spectrum of activity against several human and canine cancers. Previous formulations of paclitaxel have been poorly absorbed in dogs, limiting its therapeutic value. Oraxol is a novel oral formulation of paclitaxel that is combined with a second

Canine Lymphoma – Alternating Doxorubicin and TANOVEA®-CA1 for Dogs with Untreated Lymphoma
ClosedThis study may provide information on a multi-drug treatment protocol that may result in improved outcomes for dogs with multicentric lymphoma.

Canine Mast Cell Tumor Study
ClosedThis study will evaluate whether or not a small biopsy from a mast cell tumor is accurate for prognostication purposes.

Chronic Cannabidiol Administration and its Therapeutic Effect in Canine Epilepsy
ClosedThis study is looking to evaluate the pharmacology profile of CBD in dogs (i.e. how it’s processed in the body) as well as its effectiveness in treating pain in dogs with chronic osteoarthritis. This study will hopefully result in similar studies being conducted in the fields of Neurology and Oncology.

Collection of Biological Specimens from Dogs Scheduled for Biopsy or Surgery for Suspected or Known Cancer
ClosedThis study will compare certain markers in the blood that are specific to cancer, but not found in healthy dogs, before and after surgical biopsy or surgical removal of a mass.
