Authorised Therapeutic exploratory (Phase II) Ocular conservative treatment for retinoblastoma

RETINO 2018: conservative treatment for retinoblastoma: efficacy of the new management strategies and visual outcome

EU CTIS ID: 2024-514025-30-00

What this study is testing

- Study 1: To evaluate the efficacy of IAC in term of local control of the disease in patients eligible for IAC (randomized phase II study); - Study 2: To assess the visual function, based on World Health Organization (WHO) criteria, in patients eligible for other conservative treatments (IV chemotherapy in association with local ophthalmologic treatments or local ophthalmological treatment without IV chemotherapy; this is a minimally invasive interventional study).

  • Therapeutic exploratory (Phase II)

  • Overall study inclusion criteria: Newly diagnosed RB.
  • Study 2 inclusion criteria: RB eligible for conservative management although not manageable with IAC: a. Unilateral RB in children below 6 months of age, classified as Group A, B, C or D, with or without vitreous seeding, compatible with conservative management, or b. Bilateral RB classified as group A, B, C D, or E without invasion of the anterior segment, and/or massive tumors of more than 2/3 of the eye and eligible for conservative management.
  • Overall study inclusion criteria: RB with at least one eye eligible for conservative management
  • Overall study inclusion criteria: Patients likely to be compliant with the study requirements and visits, including late follow-up.
  • Overall study inclusion criteria: Patients not previously treated with chemotherapy or radiotherapy for this or any other cancer.
  • Overall study inclusion criteria: Patients with no contraindication to the proposed treatments.

You likely can't join if

  • Overall study non-inclusion criteria: RB not eligible for conservative management : a. Extra-ocular extension of the disease, or b. Group E eyes with invasion of the anterior segment, and/or massive tumors of more than 2/3 of the eye.
  • Study 1 non-inclusion criteria: Any contraindication or concomitant disease that would preclude the Study 1 treatment procedure and could delay treatment.
  • Overall study non-inclusion criteria: Patient older than 6 years of age.
  • Overall study non-inclusion criteria:Patients with another associated disease contra indicating systemic chemotherapy.
  • Overall study non-inclusion criteria: Previously treated retinoblastoma by chemotherapy
  • Overall study non-inclusion criteria: Patients already treated for another malignant disease
