Core Tip

Core Tip: Advanced metastatic cervical cancer (MCC) has a poor prognosis and a low survival rate. The emergence of bispecific antibodies offers a novel treatment option for patients with MCC. Cadonilimab is a tetravalent bispecific antibody designed to simultaneously block the programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) pathways while substantially reducing toxicities compared to combination therapy with PD-1 and CTLA-4 antibodies. We report the case of a patient with advanced MCC who achieved a complete response with cadonilimab monotherapy despite chemotherapy-induced grade IV myelosuppression.
