Abstract
Canine spontaneous tumors offer valuable insights into human cancers due to shared genetic and histological similarities. This study analyzed clinico-genomic data from 2119 dogs with tumors, identifying prognostic concordance between canine and human cancers for key oncogenes like *TP53* and *PIK3CA*. The analysis also revealed that several human-designed targeted treatments showed positive prognostic associations with specific canine genomic alterations, highlighting the potential of canine models for personalized oncology drug discovery.
