LECTURE SUMMARY: eCancerCareRB (eCCRB) has facilitated retinoblastoma circle of care communication and research at SickKids since 2001 by collecting and visually displaying point-of-care retinoblastoma data, including fundus drawings. Updated on a secure Microsoft Azure environment, DEPICT HEALTH (DEPICT) will extend eCCRB worldwide with inclusion of families. Access to eCCRB historic propensity-matched controls in Phase I study of sustained-release of chemotherapy (Chemoplaque), revealed sustained response of intraocular retinoblastoma with minimal toxicity.
