Uveal Melanoma Nuclear BRCA1-Associated Protein-1 Immunoreactivity Is an Indicator of Metastasis

Time to metastasis differs in patients with primary uveal melanoma with different grades of nuclear BAP1 immunoreactivity. Nuclear BAP1 stain is the only significant independent predictor of metastatic disease in this study. Our data support the role of BAP1 immunohistochemical staining of primary uveal melanoma to evaluate metastatic risk.
