Immunotherapy is already an integral part of veterinary practice, and sensitization treatments have long been used to alleviate allergic diseases in companion animals,&#8221; said Prof. Dr. P\u00e9ter S\u00f3tonyi during the signing of the agreement. The University of Veterinary Medicine Budapest will collaborate with the company in further developing the immunotherapeutic know-how, which is part of the intellectual property of R\u00e1kvakcina BVM Kft., and exploring its possible veterinary applications.<\/p> <p>L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Horv\u00e1th, the representative of R\u00e1kvakcina BVM Kft., stated that the project will be carried out in three stages. In the first phase, with the professional involvement of the university&#8217;s researchers, the effectiveness of the procedure will be demonstrated and documented according to scientific requirements. In the second phase, depending on the results of the first phase, the clinical evaluation and refinement of the vaccine will be expanded. In the third phase of the project, if the scientific results of animal experiments allow it, the development of the vaccine for human medical purposes will commence.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Veterinary Medicine Budapest has signed a development cooperation agreement with R\u00e1kvakcina BVM Kft. regarding a Hungarian immunotherapy method developed for the treatment of cancerous diseases and its potential veterinary application.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2518,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-87752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-featured","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/87752","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2518"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=87752"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/87752\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=87752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=87752"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/univet.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=87752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
