if your dog needs chemo for
lymphoma!
A
16-week or 25-week protocol by itself, without continued treatment for
the rest of the dog's life, offers the same
overall survival time as a protocol PLUS continued
maintenance. And your dog
gets to have a break from treatment - an important contribution to his
quality of life and a monetary savings for you!
"Lymphoma is the
most common
hematologic
neoplasm [cancer] of dogs. Although the order of drug administration
and
duration of the maintenance portion of the protocol vary considerably,
most oncologists agree that a doxorubicin-based combination
chemotherapy protocol provides the longest period of disease control
and overall survival. The
use of a prolonged maintenance phase is no longer recommended."...The goal
of this article is to summarize the current literature regarding
chemotherapy for dogs with high-grade lymphoma and provide
recommendations for therapy in a variety of different scenarios.
