Current Clinical Trials

Treatment planning by a multidisciplinary team of cancer specialists who have experience treating ocular tumors of childhood is required to determine and implement optimum treatment. Because of the complexity of therapy, expertise in pediatric radiation therapy and ophthalmology should be available.

The designations in PDQ that treatments are “standard” or “under clinical evaluation” are not to be used as a basis for reimbursement determinations.

Check for U.S. clinical trials from NCI's PDQ Cancer Clinical Trials Registry that are now accepting patients with retinoblastoma. The list of clinical trials can be further narrowed by location, drug, intervention, and other criteria.

General information about clinical trials is also available from the NCI Web site.
