Clinical Trials for Feline Mammary Carcinoma
Mammary carcinoma is one of the most common cancers in cats, with over 85% of mammary tumors in cats being malignant. Siamese cats are at higher risk. The prognosis is often guarded, making access to cutting-edge treatments through clinical trials particularly valuable. University research programs are studying new chemotherapy protocols and targeted therapies.
