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.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if Cemiplimab plus Ziv-Aflibercept is safe and effective in treating your condition of metastatic (spread to other parts of your body) uveal melanoma. This research study will test the study drugs to see if the combination of Cemiplimab plus Ziv-Aflibercept can make tumors shrink or stop growing.
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.
This is a Phase 2/3, multi-arm, multi-stage, open-label study of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*02:01 negative participants with metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM) who will be randomized to receive either IDE196 + crizotinib or investigator's choice of treatment (pembrolizumab, ipilimumab + nivolumab, or dacarbazine).
The objectives of the study are the morpho-phenotypic evaluation of uveal melanoma and to identify molecular prognostic factors that may be correlated with disease severity, tumour progression and response to treatment. These objectives will be achieved through immunohistochemical and genetic analyses.
Background: Uveal melanoma (UM) is a common primary ocular malignancy associated with limited overall survival in the advanced stage of the disease. Fundamental breakthrough regarding the management of the disease and the overall-survival have not yet been achieved. Studies with large cohorts are difficult to perform due to limited patient numbers, therefore retrospective analyses are of great potential to gain further knowledge in a disease with high clinical needs. Aim: The proposed project is a register for patients with UM treated at the Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry at the Medical University of Vienna between 01.01.1997 and 31.12.2021. Patients and Methods: Patients treated for UM at the Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry at the Medical University of Vienna between 01.01.1997 and 31.12.2021 will be included in the register. Information on the baseline characteristics, survival times and course of the disease will be gathered via retrospective chart review and saved in a password-secured database.
