Metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM) has a poor prognosis, with no established standard of care. Delineation of prognostic factors in MUM patients may enable stratified treatment algorithms of stage-specific survival. Overall, 132 MUM patients who presented to a single tertiary institution in Toronto, Canada, over 12 years were identified and data (demographics, clinical status, radiographic images, and laboratory values) were extracted. Associations with systemic first-line treatment outcome 12 weeks after first-line treatment, time to progression (TTP), and overall survival (OS) were explored by univariate and multivariable analysis.
