First-line Treatment With Camrelizumab + Apatinib Versus Chemotherapy + Bevacizumab in Advanced Cervical Cancer

Cervical cancer is the second-most common cancer in the world and is a leading cause of cancer death among women in developing countries. Cisplatin-based chemotherapy +/- bevacizumab have been recommended as the first-line treatment for patients who present with metastatic (e.g. stage IVB), persistent, or recurrent cervical cancer. However, patients in this setting are rarely curable. The immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy, including cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4), programmed death-1 (PD-1), and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors, has revolutionized the treatment of several cancers. The investigator previously reported the promising antitumor efficacy of camrelizumab (PD-1 inhibitor) combined with apatinib (VEGFR2 inhibitor) as second-line, or later, therapy in patients with advanced cervical cancer. This randomized study is to assess the efficacy and safety of first-line treatment with camrelizumab plus apatinib compared to the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel and cisplatin/carboplatin plus bevacizumab in patients with stage IVB, recurrent, or persistent cervical cancer.

PD-1 (Programmed Death-1) Versus PD-L1 (Programmed Death-ligand 1) Immune Check Point Inhibitors Combined With Chemotherapy, With or Without Bevacizumab, In Patients With Metastatic, Persistent Or Recurrent Cervical Cancer

This is a randomized trial evaluating the results of using of PD-1 and PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with chemotherapy, with or without bevacizumab, in patients with metastatic, persistent, and recurrent cervical cancer.
