In reading one of my several complimentary pet therapies books I came
across a therapy for cancer treatment I've never heard about. It
translates to "activated lymphocyte therapy".
It seems to be more well-known and accepted here in Japan, but it
mostly seems experimental in the US. (You can search for that term in
the clinical trails DB and then also choose "include trials that are
no longer recruiting patients." to get more results.
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct/action/GetStudy )
Here's a brief explanation in English from a Japanese company engaged
in that research if you've never heard of it:
http://www.takara-bio.com/medi_e/celltherapy_main.html
Has anyone heard of it used on pets in the US? The book by Chief
Veterinarian at NORIKO Dr. Noriko Miyano implies that it is being used
as a treatment option here. She doesn't go into detail though because
the book's actual focus is on Chinese medicine usage in pets.
Thank you.
