BCG Immunotherapy in Equine Sarcoid Treatment: A Narrative Review of Mechanisms, Clinical Efficacy, and Challenges in Veterinary Oncology

2025-06-30

Abstract excerpt

Equine sarcoids, skin tumors linked to bovine papillomavirus (BPV), are the most common neoplasms in horses, with recurrence rates up to 50% after conventional therapies like surgery or cryotherapy. Their molecular complexity, driven by viral integration and inactivation of tumor suppressor genes (p53/pRb), demands innovative approaches in veterinary oncology. This review evaluates Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) i...
