Clinical Trials for Multicentric Lymphoma
Multicentric lymphoma is the most common presentation of lymphoma in dogs, involving simultaneous enlargement of multiple peripheral lymph node regions. It is less common in cats but does occur. Most cases in dogs are B-cell in origin and respond well to combination chemotherapy. University clinical trials are actively researching new protocols, immunotherapy combinations, and targeted therapies through funded research programs.
