Declarations
:
: The clinical study on canine OS is a retrospective study on archived FFPE tissue samples. As the research did not influence any therapeutic decision, approval by an ethics committee was not required. However, all diagnostic and therapeutic procedures were performed in accordance with the Public Health Service Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals. All the examined samples were collected for diagnostic purposes as part of routine standard care. Owners gave informed consent to the use of clinical data and stored biological samples for teaching and research purposes. The retrospective clinical study for the sampling of human OS tissues was approved by the Ethics Committee (local Ethics Committee, approval No. 184, 07/01/2015). The prospective clinical study for the not-transformed bone tissue was approved by the Ethics Committee (CE-AVEC 586/2020/Sper/IOR, approval No. 0009411, 06/07/2020). For both studies, participants provided written informed consent.
