Abstract
This systematic review is aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of robotic Cyberknife radiotherapy (CKRT) in the treatment of uveal melanoma (UM). Clinical studies published in English that assessed the efficacy and safety of robotic CKRT in UM were systematically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane and Embase from inception to July 2023. Studies reporting extraocular tumours or other radiosurgery approaches were excluded. Outcomes measured were tumour size, reflectivity, local tumour control rate, eye retention rate, survival rate, complication rate, recurrence rate, and metastasis rate. Ten eligible articles involving 2370 patients with 2372 UMs were included in evidence synthesis. Meta-analysis showed 811 of 912 patients (0.89, 95% Cl: 0.86, 0.92) maintained local control for three years, and 1448 of 1724 patients (0.84, 95% Cl: 0.81, 0.88) preserved the eye in three years. During follow-up, 91% (0.91, 95% Cl: 0.85, 0.97) patients survived and 351 of 1720 patients (0.23, 95% Cl: 0.09, 0.37) involving 1722 eyes had tumour recurrence. In addition, 1376 patients (0.79, 95% Cl: 0.77, 0.82) preserved the eyeball in five years. Following treatment, approximately 20% of patients had radiation retinopathy (95% Cl: 0.13, 0.28), 19% developed glaucoma (95% Cl: 0.11, 0.28), and 22% experienced retinal detachment (95% Cl: 0.07, 0.36). CKRT is a viable, noninvasive RT for UM. The rate of local tumour control following treatment is comparable to that of other RT approaches, providing additional options based on the patient’s condition.
期刊介绍:
Eye seeks to provide the international practising ophthalmologist with high quality articles, of academic rigour, on the latest global clinical and laboratory based research. Its core aim is to advance the science and practice of ophthalmology with the latest clinical- and scientific-based research. Whilst principally aimed at the practising clinician, the journal contains material of interest to a wider readership including optometrists, orthoptists, other health care professionals and research workers in all aspects of the field of visual science worldwide. Eye is the official journal of The Royal College of Ophthalmologists.
Eye encourages the submission of original articles covering all aspects of ophthalmology including: external eye disease; oculo-plastic surgery; orbital and lacrimal disease; ocular surface and corneal disorders; paediatric ophthalmology and strabismus; glaucoma; medical and surgical retina; neuro-ophthalmology; cataract and refractive surgery; ocular oncology; ophthalmic pathology; ophthalmic genetics.
