RESUMO
Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common intraocular malignancy in adults. Recently, great progresses have been made in the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of UM, however, nearly 50% of patients still develop liver metastases, which severely affects on the survival of UM patients. Whether UM patients will benefit from the immune checkpoint blockade similarly as the cutaneous melanoma (CM)? Whether the specific gene mutations targeting UM could improve the anti-tumor efficacy? Whether chimeric antigen receptor T cell or T cell receptor T cell immunotherapy is effective to UM patients with liver metastases? How about the combinational therapies in UM and the clinical effects? This review summarizes the anti-tumor research and novel treatment options of UM, analyzes the current achievements and problems.
