In this episode, we discuss the final analysis of the KEYNOTE-826 subgroup study led by Dr. Yong-Man Kim, evaluating pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in East Asian patients with persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cervical cancer. The study demonstrated substantial improvements in progression-free and overall survival compared to placebo, with median progression-free survival reaching 18.0 months versus 10.4 months in the overall population, and 29.3 versus 10.9 months in patients with PD-L1 expression. Safety was consistent with the known profile of pembrolizumab. These findings support its use as a standard of care in this population.
