Pilot Study of Topotecan/Vincristine With Subconjunctival Carboplatin for Patients With Bilateral Retinoblastoma
Lead Sponsor:
Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati
Conditions:
Retinoblastoma
Eligibility:
All Genders
Up to 10 years
Phase:
NA
Brief Summary
The investigators are testing subtenon carboplatin in combination with vincristine and topotecan given by vein in the hopes of finding a drug combination that may be effective against retinoblastoma t...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Age: ≤ 10 years of age
- Diagnosis: Patients must have a history of bilateral Retinoblastoma AND Recurrent/Refractory Intra-Ocular Retinoblastoma considered not amenable to cure with local therapies alone (photocoagulation with argon laser, cryotherapy, transpupillary thermotherapy, radioactive plaque therapy).
- Therapeutic Options: Patient's disease status is one for which there are no known options proven to provide a high chance for ocular salvage or cure other than external beam radiation or enucleation.
- Remaining visual function in target eye (s) is required
- Life Expectancy of \> 8 weeks
- Lansky ≥ 50
- Prior Therapy: Patients must have local relapsed/refractory disease after receiving standard upfront therapy involving at least one chemotherapeutic regimen. There is no limit to prior chemotherapeutic regimens permitted. Patients may have received previous intravenous carboplatin, but may not have received prior subtenon carboplatin or intravenous topotecan.
- Patients must have recovered from the acute toxic effects of all prior chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy prior to entering this study, as described below:
- Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: patients must not have received myelosuppressive chemotherapy within 3 weeks of study enrollment
- Biologic therapies: Patients must not have received biologic anti-cancer agents within one week of study enrollment
- Radiation therapy: Four weeks must have elapsed since external beam radiation therapy, if given.
- Adequate Bone Marrow Function Defined as:
- Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 750/µL
- Platelet count ≥ 75,000/µL (transfusion independent, defined as not receiving platelet transfusions within a 7-day period prior to enrollment)
- Hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 gm/dL (may receive RBC transfusions)
- Adequate Renal Function Defined as:
- Creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR ≥ 70ml/min/1.73 m2 OR threshold creatinine values based on age/gender derived from the Schwartz formula for estimating GFR
- Adequate Liver Function Defined As:
- Bilirubin (sum of conjugated + unconjugated) ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age
- SGPT (ALT) ≤ 5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age
- Serum albumin ≥ 2 g/dL
Exclusion
- Extra-ocular retinoblastoma
- Asynchronous involvement of the contralateral eye, previously untreated
- Uncontrolled infection at time of protocol entry
- Concomitant Medications:
- Growth factors that support platelet or white cell number or function must not have been administered within the past 3 days
- Patients who are currently receiving investigational drugs, or who have received an investigational drug within the last 7 days, are ineligible
- Patients who are currently receiving other anti-cancer agents are ineligible
- Patients who in the opinion of the investigator may not be able to comply with the safety monitoring requirements of the study are not eligible
