About this trial

Brief Summary

A Phase II Single-Arm Clinical Trial of Short-Course Radiotherapy Combined with Adebrelimab and Platinum-Based Neoadjuvant Therapy for Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer

Background \& Objective:

This is a single-center, single-arm, Phase II clinical trial. The primary objective is to evaluate the pathological complete response (pCR) rate (defined as ypT0N0) following neoadjuvant therapy with short-course radiotherapy (SCRT) combined with Adebrelimab (an anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody) and single-agent platinum chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC).

Study Design:

Patients will receive SCRT followed by three cycles of neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy. After completion of neoadjuvant treatment, radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy (with or without para-aortic lymphadenectomy) will be performed.

Outcome Measures:

Primary Endpoint: Pathological Complete Response (pCR) rate assessed by a central pathologist.

Secondary Endpoints:

Objective Response Rate (ORR) and R0 resection rate (per RECIST 1.1).

Event-Free Survival (EFS) and 2-year EFS rate.

Incidence and severity of Treatment-Related Adverse Events (TRAEs, per NCI-CTCAE v5.0) and surgical complications (per Clavien-Dindo classification).

Feasibility and implementation rate of different adjuvant treatment strategies based on postoperative risk stratification.

Depth of response (major pathological response, MPR).

Inclusion Criteria:

Key eligibility criteria include:

Newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, or adenosquamous carcinoma of the cervix.

Clinical stage IB3-IIA2 or IIIA (without parametrial invasion) per FIGO 2018 staging.

No evidence of extrapelvic lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis (confirmed by PET/CT or enhanced CT).

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Adebrelimab

    Drug

    Adebrelimab (1200 mg) is administered intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (Q3W). Neoadjuvant Phase: Patients receive short-course radiotherapy (30 Gy in 6 fractions) concurrent with 2 cycles of Adebrelimab plus platinum-based chemotherapy (cisplatin or carboplatin). Adjuvant Phase: Following surgery, patients receive up to 3 additional cycles of Adebrelimab plus platinum. This is followed by maintenance therapy with Adebrelimab monotherapy (Q3W) for a total treatment duration of 1 year. High-risk patients (positive nodes/margins) may receive additional radiotherapy as clinically indicated.
