Register your interest in ourdog cancer trial

We are recruiting dogs with mast cell cancer in Australia for an investigational trial of personalised mRNA cancer vaccines. Register your interest and share a few details about your dog. Our team will contact you about further screening.

Why we are running this trial

From Rosie’s story to a future for more dogs.

The first dog treated with a personalised neoantigen vaccine.

It began with Rosie. Her experience with a personalised neoantigen vaccine encouraged Paul to explore how this approach could one day be made available to every dog with cancer.

Before an approach like this can become broadly available, we must study it carefully and support it by evidence for review by the relevant veterinary regulators. This clinical trial is an important step in that process, helping us learn from participating dogs and understand the vaccine more fully.

About the trial

What this trial is looking at

The trial will investigate a personalised mRNA vaccine approach for dogs with mast cell cancer. Tell us about your dog and our team will help determine whether they may be eligible for screening.

Who can register

Dogs diagnosed with mast cell cancer who are based in, or able to travel within, Australia.

Every case is reviewed individually

The trial approach

A therapeutic mRNA vaccine designed from each dog’s own tumour and blood samples, intended to work alongside—not replace—existing care.

Personalised to each dog

What screening involves

We help coordinate records, screening, sample logistics and updates, working with the trial team and your treating veterinarian.

Trial registration and screening

How to register your interest.

You don’t need to have every record ready before registering your interest. Start with what you know and we’ll help with the rest.

01

Register your interest

Complete a short form with basic details about your dog, their mast cell cancer diagnosis and where you live.

02

We get in touch

A Gamgee coordinator will contact you, answer practical questions and—with your permission—help gather relevant records from your vet.

03

The trial team confirms eligibility

The authorised study team and treating veterinarian assess potential eligibility. If your dog may proceed, you’ll receive the approved trial information and consent discussion before deciding.

These are indicative timings from a single case. Sequencing turnaround and manufacturing schedules may vary. We will give you a case-specific estimate before proceeding.
