Ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic cervical cancer: A case report and literature review.
Review in Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The prognosis for patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer (r/mCC) remains challenging, with a 5-y survival rate of approximately 17%. Although first-line treatment has evolved from traditional single-agent chemotherapy to combination regimens that incorporate targeted therapy and immunotherapy-showing improved initial response rates - therapeutic options after disease progression remain limited and often yield suboptimal outcomes. Ivonescimab, the first tetravalent bispecific monoclonal antibody capable of simultaneously targeting programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), demonstrates robust anti-tumor activity and a manageable safety profile across various solid tumors through synergistic blockade of both immune checkpoint pathways and tumor angiogenesis. This case report describes a patient diagnosed with cervical squamous cell carcinoma accompanied by hepatic metastases who received first-line therapy with platinum-based chemotherapy in combination with cadonilimab and bevacizumab. According to RECIST 1.1 criteria, a partial response (PR) was achieved after four treatment cycles, with a PFS of 11 months. Subsequent to disease progression, second-line treatment was initiated with ivonescimab combined with single-agent albumin-bound paclitaxel. After two treatment cycles, PR was achieved, and the patient continues to derive clinical benefits. Throughout the treatment course, the patient experienced only low-grade adverse events (CTCAE grade 1 or below) and maintained a satisfactory quality of life. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case demonstrating a significant response to ivonescimab in recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer following failure of first-line immunotherapy combined with anti-angiogenic therapy. This case preliminarily validates its anti-tumor activity and safety characteristics, and presents a novel therapeutic strategy for later-line management.
