Group 1 - Multicentric non randomised, phase II study for patients with retinoblastoma (unilateral group A,B according to age, group C according to the age and the vitreous seeding or bilateral groups A,B and C excluding the bilateral groups D or patients with bilateral macular threat). Treatment by chemoreduction (VP16, carboplatin) followed by Carboplatin + laser day 1 (chemothermotherapy) without laser treatment at day 8 (decreasing laser sessions) combined to local treatments from third course (laser, cryoapplication, I125 radioactive plaques or intravitreal Melphalan).

Eligibility Criteria

AgeUp to 6 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients affected by unilateral retinoblastoma groups A, B (according to the age), group C (according to the age and vitreous seeding),or bilateral retinoblastoma groups A, B, C (excluding the eyes with macular threat and bilateral group D eyes or on the only remaining eye) amenable to a conservative treatment (at least on one eye in bilateral disease) but needing initial chemotherapy because of the location, the size of the lesion (more than 4 mm of diameter), a vision threat or risks of intravitreal relapse making those patients not amenable to chemothermotherapy first line.
  • Patients less than six months of age with unilateral retinoblastoma groups B, C, D, or bilateral very asymmetric with one eye group D and the other amenable to local treatments without chemotherapy.
  • Children from 0 to 6 years old.
  • Patients affected by unilateral or bilateral retinoblastoma group B (according to the age), group C (according to the age and vitreous seeding), or group D.
  • Patients affected by bilateral retinoblastoma very asymmetric with a group D eye that can be treated by intraarterial chemotherapy by Melphalan and the other amenable to local treatments without chemotherapy.
  • Children from 6 months to 6 years old.
  • Children affected of bilateral group D retinoblastoma or on the only eye amenable to conservative treatment.
  • Children from 0 to 6 years old.
  • Patients not previously treated by chemotherapy or radiotherapy for this tumour or another cancer.
  • No contra-indications to the study treatments
  • Possible long term follow-up.
  • Written informed consent of the parents or the legal representative.
  • Patients having social security cover.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients for whom a local treatment is possible without initial chemotherapy (tumour smaller than 4 mm and located far from optic nerve head or macula).
  • Patients with an unilateral group D with massive tumour or group E eyes needing enucleation first line or after initial chemotherapy (in case of buphthalmia or suspected optic nerve invasion or extrascleral extension).
  • Patients affected by bilateral retinoblastoma very asymmetric with a group D eye that can be treated by intraarterial chemotherapy by Melphalan and the other amenable to local treatments without chemotherapy.
  • Patients with bilateral retinoblastoma and bilateral group D eyes or on the only remaining eye or presenting a bilateral macular threat requiring conservative treatment by a 6 cycles, three drugs regimen.
  • Patients with a unilateral group D (extensive) or B or C but covering the optic nerve head or group E eyes for which enucleation is warranted first line or after chemotherapy (in case of buphthalmia or suspected optic nerve invasion or extrascleral extension).
  • Patients with unilateral group D eye with tumour volume of more than 50% of eye volume, for whom a massive choroidal invasion could be associated (on clinical or imaging criteria) and for which enucleation is warranted.
  • Patients for whom a local treatment is possible without chemoreduction (tumour smaller than 4 mm, distant from macula and from optic nerve head).
  • Patients affected by bilateral retinoblastoma very asymmetric with a group D eye that can be treated by intraarterial chemotherapy by Melphalan and the other amenable to local treatments without chemotherapy.
  • Patients with bilateral retinoblastoma without macular threat or groups A, B, C than can be treated with chemoreduction by VP16 and Carboplatin then chemothermotherapy without laser at day 8.
  • Patients older than 6 years old.
  • Patients with extraocular retinoblastoma.
  • Patients with a disease being a contra-indication to chemotherapy.
  • Patients anteriorly treated by chemotherapy.
  • Patients anteriorly treated by external beam irradiation.
  • Patients anteriorly treated for another cancer.
