Ethical principles for novel therapies in veterinary practice
1RSPCA, Horsham, West Sussex, RH13 9RS.
Objectives:
To present insights to aid decision-making about novel veterinary treatments from regulations concerning animal experimentation and human clinical medical trials.
Materials And Methods:
EU Directive 2010/63/EU on the protection of animals used for scientific purposes and EU Regulation 536/2014 on clinical trials on medicinal products for human use were analysed, evaluated and "translated" into relevant principles for veterinary surgeons.
Results:
A number of principles are relevant, relating to treatment expectations, thresholds and objectives; client consent; minimising harms; personnel; review committees; assessment and publication.
Clinical Significance:
These principles should assist veterinary surgeons to make good ethical decisions about novel treatments.
