摘要
Background: Advanced carcinoma of the head represents a substantial health problem in cats for local control and overall survival. Objectives: Evaluate the capability of electrochemotherapy ( ECT) to improve bleomycin efficacy in cats with periocular carcinoma and advanced carcinoma of the head. Animals: Twenty- one cats with periocular carcinoma ( 17 squamous cell carcinoma [ SCC] and 4 anaplastic carcinoma) and 26 cats with advanced SCC of the head. Methods: Nonrandomized prospective controlled study. Periocular carcinoma cohorts: 12 cats were treated with bleomycin ( 15 mg/ m 2 IV) coupled with ECT under anesthesia; 9 cats were treated with bleomycin alone. Advanced head SCC cohorts: 14 cats were treated with bleomycin ( 15 mg/ m 2 IV) coupled with ECT administered under sedation; 12 control cats were treated with bleomycin alone. ECT treatments ( 2- 8) were performed every other week until complete remission ( CR) or tumor progression occurred. Results: Toxicities were minimal and mostly treated symptomatically. Overall response rate in the ECT treated animals was 89% ( 21 Complete Response [ CR] and 2 Partial Response [ PR]) whereas controls had response rate of 33% ( 4 CR and 3 PR). Median time to progression in ECT group was 30.5 months, whereas in controls it was 3.9 months ( P <.0001). Median time to progression for ECT cohorts was 24.2 months for periocular cohort and 20.6 in advanced head SCC cohort, respectively. Conclusions: Electrochemotherapy is well tolerated for advanced SCC of the head in cats; its use may be considered among loco- regional strategies for cancer therapy in sensitive body regions such as periocular region.
