Can be easily administered, has healthy profit margins, market acceptance will be quick, translating to high sales growth
The Problem Pets are living longer than ever before, making them more susceptible to developing cancer Cancer is the # 1 disease related cause of death for dogs in the U.S. Cancer accounts for almost 50% of deaths in pets older than 10 years Average costs to treat lymphoma in pets is $2,000-most owners will rather watch their pets die than pursue treatment 1 in 4 dogs and 1 in 5 cats will develop cancer in their lifetime Dogs get cancer at about the same rate as humans
Current Solutions The most common treatment modalities used to combat cancer include: Surgical treatment, Chemotherapy, Radiation Therapy and Immunotherapy. PALLADIA is the first and only FDA-approved drug for canine cancer. While it is administered orally, it is still technically chemotherapy. Side effects may include low white blood cell counts, diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, fatigue, and stomach ulceration. Low response rate, “roughly 40% of dog with mast cell tumors will actually respond to the drug, while the majority do not.” (US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health)
Market Opportunity Breakdown: Spending on Pets in 2015 ($ billions) • In 2015, $60.28 billion was spent on pets in the U.S.-26% on vet care services Food 23.05 Supplies/OTC Medicine 14.28 Vet Care 15.42 Live animal purchases 2.12 Pet Services: grooming & boarding 5.41
Market Opportunity Current treatment methods are quite expensive and not totally safe for pets Initial visit, including diagnosis, discussion of prognosis and a treatment plan $200+ Major surgery to remove a tumour deep in the body, or that requires reconstruction $1500+ Chemotherapy (depends on the size of the dog) ranges from $200 to $2,000 and up Radiation therapy ranges from $2,000 to $6,000 Pain medications $25 to $50 a month.
CASE REPORT Prohibitive treatment costs means some owners have no choice but to let their pets die rather than seeking further treatment I Amountspent: $3,000 Posted by : Irena in Vancouver.

Introducing a new generation of HP (high potency) veterinary cancer medications and nutraceuticals NEYMAR BLACK Entertainment Escozine for Pets™ Immunity Booster Escozine for Pets™ Escozine for Pets™ Supplements and Nutraceuiticals
Escozine for Pets™ • Escozine™ for Pets ™ is a an innovative polarized, potentiated bio-active peptide extracted from the Blue Scorpion (Rhopularus Princeps) • Induces apoptosis on a variety of cancer cells by a pattern of DNA fragmentation • It is based on the same-patented formula of “Escozine” used for the treatment of cancer in humans but is amplified through polarization technology
ESCOZINE FOR PETSTMinhibits blood vessel growth (angiogenesis) in solid tumors. Chlorotoxin blocks trans-membrane fluxes of chlorine and regulates the adjusting of cell growth, cell division and metastasis thereby inducing tumor cell death (apoptosis). The regulating of activity of the potassium (K+) 3-4 kDa, sodium (N+) 6-8 kDa and chloride (CL+) voltgate ionic channels of the tumor cells leads to growth arrest and causes cell death (apoptosis); additionally, calcium dependent potassium channels inhibit growth of other cancer cells. Innovation Therapeutics (2015). Review of Pre-clinical & Clinical data and Scorpion Venom studies to further support clinical research & development and registration of EscozineTM for Pet Life.
Escozine for Pets™ Escozine for Pets™ has a number of advantages over current treatment regimens • It can be used along with the traditional forms of cancer treatment • Sensitizes cancer cell resistance, thereby increasing the efficacy of other drugs used in treating the cancer in the animal. • Has selective binding preferences with malignant cells . • Easy administering orally • Cost effective
Escozine™ - A Breakthrough in Cancer Treatment and Prevention Documented clinical observations : • Reduction in pain • Enhancement of the recipient’s immune-system • Reduction of cancerous cell multiplication • Inhibition of new blood vessel formation from pre-existing cancerous cells. • Improvement in quality of sleep • Reduction of inflammation • Dramatic reduction in the painful side-effects of chemotherapy and radiation treatment • Improvement of appetite
Testimonials It has now been almost 1 year and 5 months since Bootsie's lung tumor diagnosis and 1 year and 3 months of being on Escozine. I can't thank the PetLife team and our vet, Dr Mitchell, for making this and introducing it to us. I never imagined she would still be with us today. If you saw and interacted with Bootsie, you wouldn't even know she had a tumor. She is an up beat 16 year old cat (if there is such a thing) who still loves sitting by the window sun bathing and watching the birds, playing and grooming her sisters (2 younger cats), and snuggling with my husband and me. When we started Bootsie on the Escozine, we were only hoping for it to help her lung tumor, however, we think it may be helping other health conditions she has. For the last 5 or so years now, Bootsie has had kidney disease as well. Just 2 months ago (Oct 2015) when our doctor did a routine blood panel check and urine check for her kidneys, her results look the best they've been in a few years! We are amazed at what this is doing for our baby's health. For a then 15 year old cat who was given only 3 months to live now being 16 years old and making it 1 year and 5 months past diagnosis is a true miracle for us. Thanks again, Escozine! anonymous anonymous
Testimonials My 9-year-old toy poodle, Ophelia, developed multiple breast lumps. She's been under the care of Dr. Joel Beth Mitchell of Aventura Animal Hospital and Resort. Dr. Mitchell had to perform several extensive surgeries in order to remove them all. Some biopsy results came back as low-grade carcinomas. We were devastated. Those were very dark times. Dr. Mitchell, whose opinion we hold in the highest regard, told us about Escozine. Some of her cancer patients who had had grim prognoses in the past, are alive and well, and they are taking Escozine. I was intrigued and encouraged, started reading a lot of literature on blue scorpion venom and decided to try it. I'm so glad I did. Ophelia has recovered remarkably well after very difficult surgeries. She's happy, full of energy and does not show any signs of sickness anymore, thank G-d. Escozine is very easy to administer. I only wish I could teach Ophelia to take it herself😊. Very grateful to Dr. Mitchell and Escozine team. Please continue your research and development. It benefits animals and people as well. Thank you! anonymous

Competition Description Competitor Company/Drug Conditionally approved by FDA in 2010, Kinavet-CA1®, is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It is used to treat mast cell tumors, a common form of cancer that affects dogs. Kinavet-CA1® works in three ways: by blocking the survival signal of the tumor cells, which may induce disappearance of the tumor, by preventing tumor growth and preventing the spread of tumor cells (metastasis). Paccal Vet®‑CA1 has been granted conditional approval by the FDA for the treatment of: non-resectable stage III, IV or V mammary carcinoma in dogs that have not received previous chemotherapy, or radiotherapy and resectable and non-resectable squamous cell carcinoma in dogs that have not received previous chemotherapy, or radiotherapy. The only drug fully approved by the FDA for the treatment of cancer in canines is Palladia. Palladia is a prescription-only therapy is used to treat grade II or III recurrent cutaneous mast cell tumors with or without regional lymph node involvement. It works by blocking the activity of key receptors important in the development of blood vessels that supply tumors, as well as receptors vital for tumor survival.
