NCT ID NCT07645625

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 30, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study follows 261 people with persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cervical cancer who are taking pembrolizumab (Keytruda) with or without bevacizumab (Avastin). Some participants may choose to stop pembrolizumab early if their tumor shrinks or disappears, while others continue standard treatment. Researchers will track how long the cancer stays under control and compare results to previous trials, aiming to see if early discontinuation is a safe option.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

pembrolizumab (Keytruda) with or without bevacizumab (Avastin)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that stopping pembrolizumab early is safe and effective for some patients with advanced cervical cancer, potentially reducing treatment burden.

What could go wrong

This is an observational registry, not a controlled trial, so results may be less definitive. Early discontinuation might lead to higher relapse risk, and findings may not apply to all patients.
