Helping Your Dog’s Immune System Fight Cancer
Animal Immuno Solutions develops veterinary-led immunotherapy therapies designed to help a dog’s own immune system recognise and attack cancer. These treatments are created by veterinary scientists with decades of experience in cancer research in pet dogs.
Our therapies are only given by registered veterinarians and are used as part of an individual treatment plan designed specifically for your dog.
Our Treatments:
Neostim and Neostim Plus
Neostim and Neostim Plus are local cancer immunotherapies. They are given as a single injection directly into a tumour, with the aim of stimulating a strong immune response against the cancer.
Instead of attacking cancer cells with chemotherapy drugs, these treatments work by “waking up” the immune system inside the tumour, helping your dog’s body recognise the cancer as something that needs to be destroyed.
Neostim and Neostim Plus turn the tumour into its own vaccine. The immune stimulants in these products persist in the tumour for weeks to months causing long term immune stimulation. For this reason only a single treatment is recommended.
Which Dogs May Benefit?
Neostim and Neostim Plus may be considered for dogs with:
- Tumours that cannot be removed surgically
- Tumours that have come back after surgery
- Tumours where surgery is not desired
- Certain common cancers which are easily injected such as:
- Mast cell tumours
- Melanomas
- Other solid tumours of the skin, mouth, or soft tissues
Your veterinarian will assess whether this type of immunotherapy is appropriate for your dog’s individual situation.
What Are The Benefits?
- Targeted treatment — immune activation happens directly inside the tumour
- Minimal whole-body side effects compared with chemotherapy
- Single treatment in most cases
- Can be combined with surgery, radiation, or other cancer treatments
- Safe for families and veterinary staff — no chemotherapy drugs or toxic residues
These treatments are designed to be practical, accessible, and suitable for real-world veterinary care.
Canvax and Neovax
At Animal Immuno Solutions, we offer personalised cancer vaccines designed specifically for your dog.
Canvax and Neovax are advanced immunotherapy options that use your dog’s own tumour to help their immune system recognise and fight cancer more effectively.
Canvax is a gentle vaccine approach with proven efficacy across a range of solid tumours, designed to stimulate the immune system in a safe and targeted way.
Neovax is a clinically trialled vaccine developed for dogs with osteosarcoma, combining personalised tumour material with a potent immune stimulant to enhance the body’s response to cancer.
These treatments are used alongside your veterinarian’s care plan, such as surgery or other cancer therapies.
Which Dogs May Benefit?
Canvax and Neovax personalised vaccines may be suitable for dogs:
- Diagnosed with cancer, particularly solid tumours
- With osteosarcoma (especially for Neovax)
- Dogs who will undergo surgery as part of their treatment to recover sufficient tumour tissue to make a personalised cancer vaccine.
- Dogs at risk of cancer recurrence or spread after surgery
- Where additional treatment options are being considered
- Whose owners are seeking a more personalised, immune-based approach
Your veterinarian will help determine if this treatment is appropriate for your dog’s specific condition.
What Are The Benefits?
- Personalised treatment – made using your dog’s own tumour
- Supports the immune system to recognise and respond to cancer
- Gentle and generally well tolerated compared to many traditional therapies
- Works alongside standard treatments like surgery or oncology care
- Designed to improve outcomes and quality of life
These therapies are provided through your veterinarian, who will guide you through whether they are suitable for your pet.
A New Option In Veterinary Cancer Care
Neostim and Neostim Plus intratumoral adjuvants and the Canvax and Neovax personalised vaccines represent a modern approach to cancer treatment — one that works with your dog’s immune system rather than against it.
If your dog has been diagnosed with cancer and you would like to explore whether immunotherapy may be an option, speak with your veterinarian or ask for referral to a veterinary oncologist.
