New pill could help eye cancer patients keep their sight
NCT ID NCT07015190
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 3 trial tests darovasertib, a daily pill, given before standard local therapy (radiation or surgery) for people with uveal melanoma that hasn't spread. The goal is to see if the drug can prevent vision loss and avoid eye removal. About 520 participants will be randomly assigned to receive darovasertib plus standard care or standard care alone.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Darovasertib (a pill taken by mouth twice daily)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a way to treat uveal melanoma while saving vision and the eye itself, reducing the need for eye removal.
- What could go wrong
- This is still an experimental drug, and it may not prove better than current standard care. Side effects from darovasertib are possible, and the study is open-label, which can introduce bias.
