Three vs 6 Cycles of Chemotherapy for High-Risk Retinoblastoma: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

JAMA

November 2024

State Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology, Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, Guangdong Provincial Clinical Research Center for Ocular Diseases, Guangzhou, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Adjuvant therapy, specifically CEV chemotherapy, is crucial for treating high-risk unilateral retinoblastoma, but there hasn't been sufficient comparison between administering 3 vs. 6 cycles of this treatment.
  • A randomized trial involving 187 patients aimed to determine if 3 cycles of CEV chemotherapy is as effective as 6 cycles in terms of disease-free survival after enucleation.
  • The results showed that the 3-cycle regimen had comparable disease-free survival rates and was associated with fewer adverse events and lower costs, suggesting it could be a more efficient treatment option.
