Trial summary

Background: Serious adverse cardio-respiratory events (SCRE) occur during super selective ophthalmic artery chemotherapy for retinoblastoma in children. SCRE mechanism remains unclear but may be attributed to an autonomic nervous reflex induced by catheterization of the ophthalmic artery. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prospective Analysis of Serious Cardio-respiratory Events During Ophthalmic Artery Chemotherapy for Retinoblastoma Under a Deep and Standardized Anesthesia

Background: Serious adverse cardio-respiratory events (SCRE) occur during super selective ophthalmic artery chemotherapy for retinoblastoma in children. SCRE mechanism remains unclear but may be attributed to an autonomic nervous reflex induced by catheterization of the ophthalmic artery. The investigators hypothesize that inadequacy between depth of anesthesia and catheter stimulation might be a support cause of these SCRE.

Methods: Children requiring super selective ophthalmic artery chemotherapy for retinoblastoma are prospectively included in this observational study. Endovascular procedures are performed under standardized and deep general anesthesia with sevoflurane, sufentanil and rocuronium. SCRE are strictly pre-defined and included arterial hypotension, bradycardia and bronchospasm. SCRE are recorded and the factors influencing their occurrence are investigated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Retinoblastoma, run by Fondation Ophtalmologique Adolphe de Rothschild.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Serious adverse cardio-respiratory events during ophthalmic artery chemotherapy for retinoblastoma. (time frame: from the beginning of general anesthesia until the end of injection of chemotherapy in the ophthalmic artery, assessed up to 120 minutes.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 May 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
