Mitoxantrone and cyclophosphamide combination chemotherapy for the treatment of various canine malignancies

Abstract: Thirteen dogs with histopathologically confirmed malignancies were treated with mitoxantrone and cyclophosphamide combination therapy. One to four doses were administered at 21-day intervals. Recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor was administered to ameliorate myelosuppression in dogs with neutrophil nadirs less than 1,000/microl. While the protocol appears to be safe for use in tumor-bearing dogs, an advantage over mitoxantrone single-agent protocols in terms of tumor response was not demons… Show more

“…Proposed risk factors for SHC in dogs have included high cyclophosphamide dose, prolonged administration, female sex and IV administration . Several papers have also proposed protective factors that may decrease the risk of SHC for dogs taking cyclophosphamide, including the use of diuretics such as prednisone or furosemide and oral cyclophosphamide administration …”

“…Multiple studies have indicated that diuretic use with prednisone or furosemide is likely to be protective against development of SHC . In one study, dogs undergoing IV cyclophosphamide for treatment of lymphoma had an SHC prevalence rate of 1.2% with concurrent furosemide treatment versus 9% without .…”

“…Incomplete margins can place the patient at risk for tumour recurrence with reported recurrence rates dependent on grade: 7% for grade 1, 34% for grade 2 and 75% for grade 3. 1,3 Findings of incomplete excision can lead to recommendations for further treatment including chemotherapy, [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] radiation therapy [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] or further surgery 3,[11][12][13][14][18][19][20] to decrease chance of recurrence or increase time to recurrence.…”

“…Current treatment recommendations are local control with curative-intent surgery and/or radiation therapy and systemic adjunctive therapy [ 20 ]. The median survival time (MST) in canine oral malignant melanoma is significantly shorter for tumors at more advanced stages in the World Health Organization (WHO) clinical staging system [ 3 , 10 , 12 ]. Thus, early detection is desirable, but is also difficult, because there are few opportunities to check the inside of the mouth.…”
