The standard treatment for canine lymphoma is "CHOP" multiagent chemotherapy protocol consisting of Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin (Hydroxydaunorubicin), Vincristine (Oncovin), and Prednisone. Approximately 70鈥 85% of patients treated with CHOP achieve clinical remission. However, duration of remission ...
Lomustine, administered with or without prednisone, induces complete or partial remission in approximately 80% of dogs with cutaneous lymphoma, and is considered to be the treatment of choice for thistype of lymphoma. The duration of remission is typically short (median 3.5 months), alth...
Treatment options for lymphoma consist of either a single drug such as prednisone or multi-drug chemotherapy. Owners who choose to use prednisone, a steroid, may see a quick reversal of signs or disappearance of swollen lymph nodes possibly lasting for 2-3 months before the signs return. Most ...
radiation therapy has also been used for the treatment of CETL. A case series with 14 dogs with mucocutaneous oral lymphomas treated with radiotherapy showed an overall response rate of 67%. Of these 14 dogs, 6 had T-cell epitheliotropic lymphoma.10Recent human studies have also shown promising...
Treatment and Monitoring I. Specific antiviral therapy is not available. II. Administration of modified-live virus vaccines is only effective if given before clinical signs appear. III. Short-durationprednisonetherapy (0.5 to 1.0 mg/kg PO SID to BID for 1 to 3 days) may provide some reli...
Additional covariate information when available included size, age, sex, phenotype, stage and grade of lymphoma, mitotic index, and treatment protocol. Because of the many subtypes of B- and T-cell lymphoma, the cases were grouped into 7 diagnostic categories: (1) benign hyperplasia; (2) low...

Multi‐agent chemotherapy successfully induces remission in most nave, high‐grade canine lymphoma patients; however, disease recurrence is common. MOPP (mechlorethamine, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone) is an effective rescue protocol used to re‐induce remission, but is associated with ...
When treating lymphoma, the fundamental goals of chemotherapy are to induce a complete durable (> 6 months) first remission (termed induction), to reinduce a remission when the tumor recrudesces (or the patient relapses) following achievement of a remission (termed reinduction), and, finally,...
