Highlights: Patients with recurrent cervical cancer with progression after platinum/paclitaxel, combined if possible with bevacizumab and anti-PD-(L)1 therapy, have a dismal prognosis The antibody-drug -conjugate tisotumab vedotin showed a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in overall survival, demonstrating a 30% reduction in the risk of death compared with standard of care chemotherapy Consistent benefit in progression-free survival and confirmed response were also observed and supportive of the observed overall survival benefit with tisotumab vedotin The safety profile of tisotumab vedotin was manageable and tolerable, and consistent with previous experience Based on these data, tisotumab vedotin should be considered a potential new standard of care for patients with recurrent cervical cancer who have progressed after first-line systemic therapy
