Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to find out about the quality of life and health in patients who had retinoblastoma in one eye (unilateral retinoblastoma), who either received treatment with chemotherapy injected directly into an artery leading to the eye (intra-arterial chemotherapy) or removal of the eye (enucleation). By quality of life, the investigators mean how the participants are feeling about being satisfied with things in their life, including, physical health, emotional health, and their ability to carry out daily activities. The investigators want to see if either treatment option would affect quality of life differently. The investigators hope that this information will help us provide better care to future children with retinoblastoma and better follow-up care for survivors of retinoblastoma.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

retinoblastoma survivors treated with enucleation

MSK will contact all families of 1-year survivors of unilateral retinoblastoma treated with enucleation or intra-arterial chemotherapy at MSK and TCH between 2006 or later for completion of validated questionnaires integrating the BASC-3 and PROMIS surveys. The survey may be administered in-person during clinic or by mail, based upon participant preference.

BASC-3 survey

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

A comprehensive questionnaire, incorporating the BASC-3 and PROMIS measures, will be administered to parents of participants ages 8-17. The BASC-3 and PROMIS scales each have a parent and child version; these scales will be used to measure the secondary objective of parent and patient concordance rates for all participants ages 8 and older.

PROMIS survey

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

A comprehensive questionnaire, incorporating the BASC-3 and PROMIS measures, will be administered to parents of participants ages 8-17. The BASC-3 and PROMIS scales each have a parent and child version; these scales will be used to measure the secondary objective of parent and patient concordance rates for all participants ages 8 and older.

retinoblastoma survivors treated with intra-arteria chemo

MSK will contact all families of 1-year survivors of unilateral retinoblastoma treated with enucleation or intra-arterial chemotherapy at MSK and TCH between 2006 or later for completion of validated questionnaires integrating the BASC-3 and PROMIS surveys. The survey may be administered in-person during clinic or by mail, based upon participant preference.
