Filter by:The progress of uveal melanoma is typically monitored with sonography by experienced onco-ophthalmologists. However, there is evidence that twodimensional measurements in color fundus photography match precisely with sonography measurements. This study aims to compare sonography and color fundus photography measurements in order to evaluate the feasibility of monitoring of uveal melanoma with color fundus photography.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence and severity of retinopathy and opticopathy one year after treatment with hypofractionated stereotactic photon radiotherapy due to uveal melanoma. Patients will be imaged before radiation, as well as 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after radiation using sonography funds photography, optical coherence tomography angiography, oximeter and microperimetry.
At least 50% of patients with high-risk primary uveal melanoma will develop a recurrence following treatment of the primary tumour. Observation is currently the standard of care in the non-metastatic setting. Tebentafusp is the first agent proven to improve overall survival in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma in a randomized trial. Based on the results in the advanced setting, it is hypothesized that treatment with tebentafusp may reduce the risk of development of disease recurrence.
This clinical trial evaluates a video-based psychoeducational intervention for patients with uveal melanoma. Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare intraocular cancer. UM patients face an uncertain course of survivorship in terms of their visual acuity, treatment-related side effects, and risk for eventual metastasis of the cancer. Learning about patients' thoughts and reactions to informational resources may better support patients during ocular melanoma survivorship.
The goal of this prospective observational study is to learn about patient quality of life and experience and medical information needs during uveal melanoma post-treatment surveillance. Participants have previously undergone treatment for non-metastatic uveal melanoma and have integrated a oncological and / or ophthalmic surveillance protocol based on their individual genomic and / or clinical risk of recurrence. The main objectives it aims to assess are: - To evaluate the effect of satisfaction with communication with the oncologist/ophthalmologist during the oncology/ophthalmology surveillance visit 6 months after the start of surveillance (T1) on the overall level of health status/quality of life (QoL). - To explore the impact on psychosocial resources and needs such as fear of recurrence, anxiety and depression 6 months after the start of surveillance (T1) and 12 months after the start of surveillance (T2). - To document patients experience of care and communication during the first 12 months of surveillance. Participants will fill in quality of life questionnaires at two timepoints. A sub-sample will be offered to participate in qualitative research interviews. Researchers will compare data from patients at low risk of recurrence with those at high risk of recurrence to see if there are significant differences with regards to quality of life, satisfaction with care and medical information needs.
This is a phase II open-label, single-arm, multi-center study of tebentafusp in HLA- A*0201 positive previously untreated (1L) untreated metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM) with an integrated circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) biomarker.
The primary objective is to determine the safety and efficacy of belzupacap sarotalocan (bel-sar) compared to sham control in patients with primary indeterminate lesions (IL) or small choroidal melanoma (CM).
Neoadjuvant/adjuvant IDE196 (darovasertib) in patients with primary uveal melanoma
Evaluate the safety and tolerability of treatment with autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) administered via hepatic arterial infusion and preconditioning with percutaneous hepatic perfusion in patients with liver metastases (but not restricted to) of malignant melanoma
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate a new approach for treating large uveal melanomas, a type of eye cancer. The study aims to determine the effectiveness of using intra-arterial melphalan, a chemotherapy drug, to reduce tumor thickness, allowing for subsequent radiation therapy using a Ru-106 plaque. The main questions this trial seeks to answer are: - Can intra-arterial melphalan effectively reduce the thickness of large uveal melanomas? - Is the combination of intra-arterial melphalan and brachytherapy a safe and effective treatment option for these tumors? Participants enrolled in the trial have clinically diagnosed choroidal melanoma with tumor thickness equal to or greater than 8.00 mm. They will undergo a procedure where the chemotherapy drug is injected directly into the blood vessels that supply the tumor. After a few weeks, they will receive the radiation treatment using a small device placed on the eye. Throughout the trial, participants will have different tests to monitor the tumor and their vision, such as ultrasound scans, pictures of the inside of the eye, and a test called electroretinography (ERG) to check the function of the retina. These tests will be done at the start of the trial and at 1, 3, and 6 months later to track the progress of the treatment.
