Neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy in uveal melanoma: toward systemic control of a systemic disease.
Uveal melanoma (UM) is a biologically distinct melanoma subtype in which excellent local tumor control contrasts sharply with a high risk of delayed metastases. The frequent occurrence of distant relapse months to years after index local therapy suggests systemic dissemination early in the disease course.
