NCT00335738

Brief Summary

This phase III trial is studying vincristine, carboplatin, and etoposide to see how well they work compared to observation only in treating patients who have undergone surgery for newly diagnosed retinoblastoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vincristine, carboplatin, and etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. Sometimes, after surgery, no additional treatment is needed for the tumor until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Event-free Survival (EFS)

    EFS distributions will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method for patients with high risk features according to central review and treated with adjuvant chemotherapy and separately for subjects with central review recommendation of enucleation alone.

    At 2 years

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    OS distributions will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method for patients with high risk features according to central review and treated with adjuvant chemotherapy and separately for subjects with central review recommendation of enucleation alone.

    At 2 Years

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Toxicity As Assessed By the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0

    During planned six cycles of chemotherapy

  • Pathological Features Present At Diagnosis - Posterior Uveal Invasion (PVI)

    At enrollment

  • Pathological Features Present At Diagnosis - Tumor Involving the Optic Nerve Posterior to the Lamina Cribrosa (LC) as an Independent Finding

    At enrollment

  • Pathological Features Present at Diagnosis - Scleral Invasion (SI)

    At enrollment

  • Pathological Features Present At Diagnosis - Anterior Chamber Seeding (ACS)

    At enrollment

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Group 1 (identified by central review as high risk)

EXPERIMENTAL

Includes patients who may or may not require chemotherapy. Patients who require chemotherapy receive vincristine IV and carboplatin IV over 1 hour on day 1 and etoposide IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 2. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity and patients who complete chemotherapy are followed after completion of therapy periodically for at least 5 years. Patients who do not require chemotherapy undergo observation periodically for at least 5 years.

Drug: liposomal vincristine sulfateDrug: carboplatinDrug: etoposide

Group 2 (identified by central review as not high risk)

NO INTERVENTION

Patients undergo observation periodically for at least 5 years.

Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Newly diagnosed unilateral retinoblastoma
