Official Title: A Randomized, Controlled, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Melphalan/HDS Treatment in Patients With Hepatic-Dominant Ocular Melanoma

Brief Summary: This study will evaluate two groups of patients who have melanoma that has spread from the eye to the liver: one group (50%) will get high-dose chemotherapy delivered specifically to the liver, while the other group (50%) will get one of 4 standard best alternative care treatments. Patients in each group will get repeating cycles of treatment until the cancer in the liver advances and will be followed until death. This study will evaluate the effect of the treatments on how long patients live and how long it takes for the cancer to advance or respond to the treatment.
