Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This phase II trial studies how well stereotactic body radiation therapy and aflibercept work in treating patients with uveal melanoma. Stereotactic body radiation therapy is a specialized radiation therapy that sends x-rays directly to the tumor using smaller doses over several days and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Aflibercept may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving stereotactic body radiation therapy followed by aflibercept may work better in treating patients with uveal melanoma.

- A. Stereotactic body radiation therapy, ziv-aflibercept
- description
- Patients undergo stereotactic body radiation therapy over 5 fractions every other week day during days 1-10. Patients then receive ziv-aflibercept IVI on the last day of radiation therapy and then every 2 months for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
