The purpose of this study is to determine whether radiation provided locally to the liver tumor vasculature environment will demonstrate a response of tumor decline. This radiation may cause the tumor cells to die. This is a phase II clinical trial to investigate safety and efficacy of radioactive microsphere (SIR-Spheres® microspheres). Uveal melanoma patients with progressing hepatic metastases who received no more than one intra-hepatic arterial treatment will be enrolled. Patients will be first stratified into two groups: Group A, no prior intra-hepatic arterial treatment; Group B, one prior intra-hepatic arterial treatment).
