Tebentafusp has transformed the treatment paradigm for metastatic uveal melanoma and should be the preferred frontline agent for most HLA-A*0201 positive patients. However, patients with rapidly progressing disease or high tumor benefit may not derive the same benefit. Areas of future study should focus on its role in the adjuvant setting as well as strategies to improve the efficacy of tebentafusp in the metastatic setting.
