| Planet | Orbital period | Distance from star | Radius (Earths) | Mass (Earths) | Found | Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7 CMa b | 2.013 years | 1.758 AU | at least 588 | 2011 | Radial Velocity | |
| 7 CMa c | 2.727 years | 2.153 AU | at least 276.5 | 2019 | Radial Velocity |
"At least" is a minimum mass. Radial velocity can only measure mass times the sine of the orbit's tilt.
