Bu çalışma, tümöründe genetik dengesizlik (monozomi 3 ve/veya 8q amplifikasyonu) bulunan üveal melanom (gözün üvea tabakasının kanseri) hastalarında Dakarbazin ve İnterferon Alfa-2b ilaçlarını inceliyor. Uygun birincil tedaviyi almış hastalar dahil edilmiştir. Faz 2 aşamasında yürütülmüş ve tamamlanmıştır.
