An interesting article about a new cancer treatment that is generating interest in the veterinary community. Might it have applications for ferret cancers?
It's referred to as the "Navy protocol" after a young golden retriever in whom all traces of agressive cancer disappeared after 10 weeks of treatment.
The treatment is a cocktail of so-called anti-angiogenic drugs, which
have been widely researched for more than a decade and work by starving
tumors of their blood supply.
