After CBS News report on rare eye cancer mystery, hundreds share stories administrator 1 Views • 2 years ago

Doctors are intensifying efforts to find out what caused groups of people in two different cities to mysteriously develop a rare eye cancer. Ocular melanoma typically occurs in just six out of every one million people. After our report Monday, hundreds of people reached out to say they or someone they know have had this same rare cancer. Anna Werner reports.

A new study has found Central Queensland has the highest rate of eye melanoma in the state, as researchers work out how UV radiation impacts diagnosis.

Locals were also 74% more likely to have the rare disease compared to those living in Victoria.

"Queensland has a lot more UV, has a lot more sunny days than Victoria, and so there's that anecdotal evidence that UV is actually also playing a role." - Dr Jason Steel, CQUniversity lecturer and cancer researcher.

The 3rd annual Eye Am Not Alone (EANA) Patient Retreat was held Friday, November 1st through Sunday, November 3rd at the Kimmel Cancer Center at Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, PA.

The retreat combined expert medical information with the 'softer side' of battling OM: understanding genetic testing, learning how to navigate insurance, etc. along with plenty of interaction with other patients and OM experts from around the country. Targeted at patients, their families and friends, the retreat mirrored OMF's ground-breaking 2010 conference at the Dana-Farber Cancer Center and its follow-up in Washington, DC in March 2012.

Speakers at the 2013 retreat included: Takami Sato MD, PhD, David Eschelman MD, Carin Gonsalves, MD, Carol Shields, MD, OMF Medical Director Peter Hovland, MD, PhD and OMF Scientific Advisory Board member Colleen Cebulla, MD.

Video abstract of an original research paper “Early experiences of planning stereotactic radiosurgery using 3D printed models of eyes with uveal melanomas” published in the open access journal Clinical Ophthalmology by Furdová et al.

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the use of 3D printed model of an eye with intraocular tumor for linear accelerator-based stereotactic radiosurgery.

Methods: The software for segmentation (3D Slicer) created virtual 3D model of eye globe with tumorous mass based on tissue density from computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging data. A virtual model was then processed in the slicing software (Simplify3D®) and printed on 3D printer using fused deposition modeling technology. The material that was used for printing was polylactic acid.

Results: In 2015, stereotactic planning scheme was optimized with the help of 3D printed model of the patient’s eye with intraocular tumor. In the period 2001–2015, a group of 150 patients with uveal melanoma (139 choroidal melanoma and 11 ciliary body melanoma) were treated. The median tumor volume was 0.5 cm3 (0.2–1.6 cm3). The radiation dose was 35.0 Gy by 99% of dose volume histogram.

Conclusion: The 3D printed model of eye with tumor was helpful in planning the process to achieve the optimal scheme for irradiation which requires high accuracy of defining the targeted tumor mass and critical structures.

Research Nurse Jane Palmer presents on the Queensland Ocular Melanoma Initiative at the 1st Australasian Ocular Melanoma Summit, held at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Sydney on May 3rd-4th, 2019.

The Australasian Ocular Melanoma Alliance (AOMA) presents the 1st Australasian Ocular Melanoma Summit. The AOMA group was founded in late 2017 by Melanoma and Skin Cancer Trials Ltd to support clinicians and researchers from all disciplines to develop, seek funding for, and collaborate on clinical trials in ocular melanoma.
