New anti-cancer animal drug for the treatment of dogs and cats
Cancerous illnesses occur frequently among small animals, but the choices of treatment are fairly limited. Of the treatments, used in human medicine only surgery is performed, chemotherapy or radiation therapy is usually not used by veterinarians. If a remedy was found, which was simple to dose, with effects comparable to the effects of chemotherapy and radiation, and could supplement surgical therapy ... this would be an important breakthrough in the area of veterinary medicine. This need can now be fulfilled by the new anti tumor animal drug, Vetera-DDW-25 which was approved recently (Registration #13/99 FVM) and works based on the concept of deuterium withdrawal. The Vetera-DDW-25 remedy, which is decreased deuterium water, is administered as drinking water, diluted with tap water, based on the body weight of the animal and the time since the start of this therapy. Animals usually like this water and tolerate the treatment well.
The mechanism of this drug's action is different then other anti-tumor drugs. Unlike cytostatic drugs, which are toxic for both tumor and healthy cells, the Vetera-DDW-25 kills cancerous tumor cells without harming healthy cells.
In the last few years several research results have verified the anti-tumor effect of deuterium withdrawal. In Hungary, Dr. Tamas Berkenyi used this preparation to treat small animals suffering from tumors. The affect of the remedy was obvious after the first examination. The first treated animal was a 9-year-old tomcat suffering from lymphoid leukosis. The cat was admitted to the animal hospital in a weak and emaciated state (4 kg body weight). At the beginning of the treatment, the preparation was administered using a feeder. By the 7th day of the treatment, the cat drank alone, became more alert, and a couple of days later, the cat was feeding himself. Following three weeks of hospital treatment, the lymph nodes were still enlarged, but no other clinical signs were observed. The condition of the cat improved rapidly . The histopathological examination six months later was unable to detect the leukosis. Two years after the diagnosis, the animal was healthy, with a good appetite, and a bodyweight of 9 kg.
Good results were also achieved in the treatment of a dog with breast tumors. The size of the primary tumor was 10 x 6 cm, and numerous 2-3 cm metastasis were palpable. Following the treatment, full regression of the metastasic tumors took place in 1-2 months. In 9 months, the size of the primary tumor shrank to 3 x 2 cm, and was surgically removed.
After the first successful treatments with the drug, other animals were also treated, and their results strengthened the previous findings. A couple years later Dr. Mariann Szabo, veterinarian, joined the Vetera-DDW-25 trials. Her experience was the same as the previous results: In dogs with adenocarcinoma type breast tumors she found quick regression. The case of a dog treated for sarcoma for 1.5 years should also be mentioned. Because of the progressed state of the disease, complete recovery could not be achieved, but the previously rapid progressing tumor growth stopped for four months, and the condition of the animal improved.
The survival and recovery chances of small animals with tumors can improve significantly with the widespread utilization of Vetera-DDW-25 . The detailed administration guide helps in the dosage assessment. During the treatment the company advises feeding the animal only dry food to decrease the amount of normal deuterium containing water entering the animals' system. The side effects of this treatment include fatigue and weakness, which usually decreases or disappears completely in 2-3 weeks.
The experience obtained by the administration of Vetera-DDW-25 anti-tumor animal drug will increase the knowledge of deuterium withdrawal and could benefit the human drug approval.
