Immunotherapy duo takes on cervical cancer in new trial

NCT ID NCT06715241

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding relatlimab to nivolumab (both immunotherapy drugs) works better than nivolumab alone for locally advanced cervical cancer. About 77 women with stage IIB to IVA cervical cancer will receive either the combination or nivolumab alone before standard chemoradiation. The main goal is to see how many tumors shrink after six weeks of treatment.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

relatlimab and nivolumab (immunotherapy drugs)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a more effective immunotherapy option for locally advanced cervical cancer, potentially improving tumor shrinkage before standard treatment.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 77 participants, designed to 'seek a signal' rather than prove benefit. The combination may cause more side effects than nivolumab alone, and results may not apply to all patients.
