OBJECTIVE: Small cell carcinoma of the cervix (SCCC) is rare but extremely aggressive and resistant to current therapies. We herein evaluate the efficacy of bevacizumab, apatinib, and anlotinib in recurrent/metastatic SCCC patients in a real-world setting.
METHODS: Recurrent/metastatic SCCC patients were recruited between January 2013 and July 2020. Baseline characteristics were extracted from medical records, and patients were divided into an anti-angiogenic group and non-anti-angiogenic group. The efficacy of treatments was determined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed for survival analysis.
RESULTS: Sixteen patients received anti-angiogenic drugs after tumor recurrence/metastasis; of them, 10 cases received them as first-line treatment, 5 cases as second-line treatment, and 1 case as fourth-line treatment. Another 23 patients received traditional therapies, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. The use of anti-angiogenic drugs in first-line treatment significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) compared to the controls, with a median PFS of 8 months (2-20 months) and 3 months (1-10 months), respectively (P = .025). This trend was also notable in patients who started anti-angiogenic treatment after the second-line recurrence/metastasis. However, there was no benefits for overall survival (OS) in either the 10 first-line cases or all 16 cases (P = .499 and .31, respectively). Both bevacizumab and small molecule drugs (apatinib and anlotinib) presented similar efficacy in SCCC patients.
CONCLUSIONS: At present, this is the largest cohort study that provides real-world data, showing that anti-angiogenic regimens could significantly prolong PFS in recurrent/metastatic SCCC. Aside from bevacizumab, the novel oral small molecule drugs provide more choices with similar efficacy. These findings warrant further validation in well-designed future studies.
