HealthScout AI Analysis

Goal: Evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of ivonescimab, a bispecific anti–PD-1/anti-VEGF antibody, in previously treated metastatic or recurrent endometrial and cervical cancers.

Patients: Adults with histologically confirmed metastatic or recurrent endometrial cancer (endometrioid, serous, clear cell, dedifferentiated/undifferentiated, mixed epithelial, adenocarcinoma NOS, or carcinosarcoma) or cervical cancer (squamous, adenocarcinoma, or adenosquamous) that has progressed after at least one platinum-based regimen. Measurable disease by RECIST v1.1 and ECOG 0–2 are required. Prior PD-1 or VEGF pathway therapy is allowed. Key exclusions include uncontrolled bleeding risk, significant recent cardiovascular or thromboembolic events, untreated or symptomatic brain metastases, active autoimmune disease requiring systemic therapy, prior severe immune-related adverse events, active hepatitis B or C, and QTc >480 ms. Patients must meet standard hematologic, renal, hepatic, thyroid, and coagulation parameters and have controlled blood pressure.

Design: Single-arm, open-label, phase 2 study with non-randomized allocation, planned enrollment of 50 participants.

Treatments: Ivonescimab administered intravenously at 20 mg/kg (fixed 3200 mg if ≥160 kg) every 3 weeks for up to 24 months. Ivonescimab (AK112/SMT112) is a first-in-class tetravalent bispecific antibody targeting PD-1 and VEGF, designed to enhance cooperative binding; VEGF presence increases PD-1 affinity and PD-1 binding enhances VEGF binding, aiming to simultaneously block angiogenesis and relieve tumor-induced immunosuppression. Early-phase studies in solid tumors identified a manageable safety profile and antitumor activity, and a phase 3 study in PD-L1–positive NSCLC reported superior PFS and higher response rates versus pembrolizumab, supporting its potential efficacy; hypertension and immune-related toxicities have been among notable adverse events.

Outcomes: Primary: Overall response rate by RECIST v1.1 at approximately 27 weeks.

Burden on patient: Moderate. Treatment requires IV infusions every 3 weeks for up to 24 months, with routine safety labs and periodic imaging for RECIST assessments. No intensive pharmacokinetic sampling or mandated biopsies are described, which reduces visit complexity. However, infusion visits, blood pressure monitoring due to VEGF blockade, and standard immune-related adverse event surveillance increase clinic contact compared with oral therapies. Imaging frequency typical for phase 2 studies and travel for q3-week infusions contribute to the overall moderate burden.
