Today, it has initiated phase enrolling patients in a trial of keratoconjunctivitis sicca an eye disease due to a deficiency in another lacrimal- secretion and intestinal inflammation equivalent to Crohn's disease in humans-both in dogs.
At the same time, working on the design of several trials in both dogs (heart failure, chronic arthritis, atopic dermatitis, meningoencephalitis) and horses (tendinopathies and laminitis).
The trials, which are meeting by the owners of the animals and the Veterinary Hospital itself waiting to get public / private funding, are showing a very positive and hopeful response at this early stage.
