Summary

This trial tests IDE196 (darovasertib) in patients with primary uveal melanoma needing surgery or radiation. The medication is given to help shrink the tumor and prevent it from coming back.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with primary localized uveal melanoma who need enucleation or plaque brachytherapy. Participants should be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1), not have other serious eye diseases, and must not be pregnant or nursing. They should agree to use birth control, be able to take oral medication, and have proper organ function. Those with concurrent cancer, significant heart issues, malabsorption disorders, active HIV/Hep B/C infections or previous PKC inhibitor treatments are excluded.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Darovasertib (IDE196) as a new treatment option for patients with localized ocular melanoma. It's given before (neoadjuvant) and after (adjuvant) standard procedures like enucleation or plaque brachytherapy to see if it can improve outcomes.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of Darovasertib may include but are not limited to nausea, fatigue, skin rash, changes in liver enzymes indicating liver stress, vision disturbances due to the drug's effect on the eyes being treated for melanoma.

Mechanism Of Action
Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
The most common treatments for Uveal Melanoma include Protein Kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, such as IDE196 (darovasertib), which target the PKC pathway involved in cell proliferation and survival. By inhibiting PKC, these drugs can reduce tumor growth and potentially lead to tumor regression. This is particularly important for Uveal Melanoma patients as the disease is often aggressive and resistant to conventional therapies. Other treatments may include immune checkpoint inhibitors, which enhance the body's immune response against tumor cells, and targeted therapies that focus on specific genetic mutations within the tumor. These mechanisms are crucial as they offer more personalized and effective treatment options, improving the prognosis and quality of life for patients with Uveal Melanoma.
