Abstract
The blood-brain barrier and knowledge gaps in tumor biology remain significant obstacles to the development of effective treatments for brain tumors. The identification of shared molecular and genetic pathways that contribute to tumorigenesis in both dogs and people has been key to the discovery and translation of targeted pharmacologic and biologic therapies. Treatment approaches often utilize targeted or multifunctional antitumor agents, such as nanocarriers, molecularly targeted agents, immunotherapeutics, and oncolytic viruses in combination with alternative therapeutic delivery strategies. The article discusses about various treatments albeit none of the treatments discussed here are widely available or approved for clinical use.
