Summary

This study looked at 60 people with uveal melanoma that spread to the liver and who were eligible for surgery to remove it. Researchers measured circulating tumor DNA in the blood before and after surgery to see if it could predict whether all cancer was removed. The goal was to learn if this blood test could help monitor the disease and guide follow-up care.
