“…The analysis did not stratify tumors for size and also did not use recent data indicating that PBT produces superior survival compared with enucleation and improved vision preservation compared with plaque brachytherapy . In addition to established data, improved outcomes with PBT against brachytherapy in phase 3 trials are emerging, and future CE analyses correspondingly could be more favorable . The results are summarized in Table .…”

“…Similarly, the recent update of the historical UCSF-LBNL randomized trial of helium vs plaque treatment showed superior results for helium particles with long-term higher LC, eye preservation, and disease-free survival rates at 12 yr follow-up. 5 Eye preservation and vision outcomes are important endpoints as well for radiation modality evaluation. The physical quality of a particle beam allows for reduced peripheral doses to critical structures.…”

“…Proton beam therapy for uveal melanoma continued at the UCSF-LBNL Crocker Lab, with some noteworthy successes [5]. Following the lead in Berkeley, several other hospital-based heavy ion therapy facilities were developed in Japan, Germany, and Italy [6, 7].…”
