Brief Summary  

The Global Retinoblastoma Presentation (2024) and Outcome (2027) Studies aim to understand how retinoblastoma (Rb), a type of eye cancer in children, presents worldwide and how well treatments work over time. Retinoblastoma is a serious disease that, if untreated, can spread and become fatal. Past studies have shown that children in low-income countries are often diagnosed later and have worse survival rates than those in high-income countries.

This new study, organized by an international research group, will collect data from treatment centers in many countries. It has two phases:

Phase 1: 1-year cross sectional data collection and analysis of all treatment-naïve children with retinoblastoma presenting to Rb treatment centres across the world in 2024. Data will be collected by each participating center during 2024 and then submitted for analysis.

Phase 2: 3-year prospective data collection and analysis of children diagnosed in treatment centers in 2024 (i.e. Phase I). Data will be collected by each participating center from January 1 2024 to December 31 2026, and submitted for analysis in early 2027.

The study will include only new cases diagnosed in 2024, ensuring that essential data like country of residence, sex, and which eye(s) are affected is recorded. Patients who were diagnosed or treated before 2024 will not be included.

Researchers will analyze data to compare results across income levels, countries, and treatment centers. The findings will help improve early detection and treatment strategies, potentially saving more lives.
