- Abstract
This retrospective study evaluated the outcomes of dogs with macroscopic pulmonary metastasis of appendicular osteosarcoma (OSA) treated with toceranib. Medical records of 20 dogs with macroscopic pulmonary metastasis of OSA that received toceranib were reviewed. The median dose and duration of toceranib administration were 2.52 mg/kg (range: 2.12 to 2.72 mg/kg) and 60 days (range: 17 to 231 days). The median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 36 days (range: 17 to 231 days) and 90 days (range: 17 to 433 days), respectively. The clinical benefit rate was 10% (2/20; 1 partial response and 1 stable disease). The longest length of initial pulmonary nodules had significant impact on both PFS (P = 0.01) and OS (P = 0.02). The prognosis for dogs with metastatic OSA was poor with only 10% of dogs showing clinical benefit from toceranib. These results suggest that toceranib may not improve outcome in dogs with macroscopic pulmonary metastasis of OSA.
