Inclusion Criteria

Study 1 inclusion criteria:

  • 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.

Study 2 inclusion criteria:

  • 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.

Study 3 inclusion criteria:

Exclusion Criteria

Study 1 exclusion criteria:

  • 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 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.

Study 3 exclusion criteria:

  • 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.
