First-Line Selective Internal Radiation Therapy in Patients with Uveal Melanoma Metastatic to the Liver
Conclusion: First-line SIRT is safe and produced promising outcomes in patients with uveal melanoma metastatic to the liver. Subsequent systemic and liver-directed locoregional therapies ameliorated survival, highlighting the potential for improved outcomes with combination approaches. The results of this study suggest that prospective trials using first-line SIRT should be considered.
