Studies on uveal melanomas (UMs) have demonstrated the prognostic value of 8q gain and monosomy 3, but the prognosis of UMs with partial deletion of chromosome 3 remains to be defined.

We examine the association of partial chromosome 3 deletion in UMs with metastasis-free survival.

This retrospective cohort study of 1088 consecutive comparative genomic hybridization arrays performed from May 1, 2006, to July 31, 2015, assessed patients presenting with UMs with and without partial loss of chromosome 3 at a referral center.

Data analysis was performed from September 1, 2017, to November 30, 2017.

Exposure 

Uveal melanoma with or without partial loss of chromosome 3.

Metastasis-free survival and overall survival at 60 months.
