Prognostic analysis of PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific antibody combined with chemotherapy first-line treatment for recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer: A multicenter real-world study.

e17520 Background: PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific antibody, cadonilimab, has shown excellent efficacy in advanced cervical cancer patients who have previously received platinum containing chemotherapy. However, its effectiveness in first-line treatment remains unclear yet. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and prognostic biomarker of cadonilimab combined with chemotherapy for the first line treatment of recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer. Methods: Information on patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who received chemotherapy combined with cadonilimab as first-line treatment at three cancer centers from July 2022 to September 2023 were collected. Patients have not received systemic chemotherapy previously and are not suitable for curative local treatment, received cadonilimab 10mg/kg Q3W for up to 17 cycles + chemotherapy for up to 6 cycles (paclitaxel 135-175 mg/m2 + cisplatin 50 mg/m2 or carboplatin AUC 5), ± bevacizumab 10-15 mg/kg. Clinical outcomes were analyzed using the Kaplan–Meier method with log-rank test. RNA-seq was used to analyze differential expressed genes (DEGs) between PR+CR group and PD+SD group. Results: There are 52 patients enrolled, median age 56.5 years (39–87 years). The median follow-up time was 12 months (5–23 months). There were 29 cases of lung metastasis, 7 cases of liver metastasis, 11 cases of bone metastasis, 12 cases of pelvic metastasis, and 11 cases of lymph node metastasis. The median number of cycles of cadonilimab and chemotherapy were 8 and 5, respectively. The 1-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 91% and 72.5%, respectively. The objective response rate (ORR) was 75%.The expression of PD-L1 and bevacizumab had no effect on prognosis. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were neutropenia (78.2%), anemia (82.7%), thrombocytopenia (51.9%), thyroid dysfunction (50%), nausea and vomiting (88.5%), fatigue (71.2%). Grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AE) were reported in 36.5% patients, mainly hematological toxicity. The most significant differential pathways between PR+CR group and PD+SD group were adhesion, Hippo signaling pathway, NOD like receptor signaling pathway, programmed cell death, and secretory granules. Conclusions: Cadonilimab combined with chemotherapy ± bevacizumab as first-line treatment for recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer was effective and well-tolerant.
