For Pet Owners
As a pet owner, participating in a clinical trial provides you with an opportunity to help your pet when conventional treatment options are either not effective or not accessible. Your participation may provide immediate benefits for your pet and will provide more effective treatments in the future for other pets with serious diseases. An ACI network veterinarian will determine on a case-by-case basis whether entering your pet into a clinical trial is in the best interest of you and your pet.
Please see our Trials page for clinical trials that are currently open.

Pet owners seeking novel treatment options for animals with serious health conditions find an Animal Clinical Investigation network veterinarian participating in a clinical trial.
Animal Clinical Investigation network veterinarian and pet owner work together to determine whether the pet is eligible for the trial. Eligible pets begin treatment at an ACI network hospital.
Information from the trial is used to help develop new drugs and treatments, providing a source of hope for people whose pets face serious illnesses.
