Finding new ways to help patients with uveal melanoma before surgery

NCT07015190 · Recruiting
About this trial

This study looks at using a medicine called darovasertib before surgery for patients with uveal melanoma that has not spread. The main goal is to see if darovasertib can help patients keep their vision and avoid surgery. Patients will receive darovasertib and then undergo different types of local treatments, depending on their group in the study.
