Etiological driver

Etiological driver · etiologically_driven archetype
Cervical carcinoma
  • High-risk HPV chronic infection (genotypes 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, 58 — accounts for >99% of cases)
  • HIV co-infection (immunosuppression accelerates progression)
  • Smoking (cofactor for SCC)
  • Long-term oral contraceptives (modest cofactor for adenocarcinoma)
  • Multiple sexual partners + early coitarche (HPV transmission risk)

★ DEFAULT
Indication
IND-CERVICAL-METASTATIC-1L-PEMBRO-CHEMO-BEV
Regimen
Pembrolizumab + paclitaxel + carboplatin ± bevacizumab (cervical cancer, 1L)
Drugs + NSZU
  • Pembrolizumab (DRUG-PEMBROLIZUMAB) 200 mg IV q3w · Until progression or max 35 cycles (~2 years) · IV ⚠ NSZU — not for this indication
  • Paclitaxel (DRUG-PACLITAXEL) 175 mg/m² IV over 3h · Day 1 q3w; typically 6 cycles then pembro maintenance · IV ⚠ NSZU — not for this indication
  • Carboplatin (DRUG-CARBOPLATIN) AUC 5 IV · Day 1 q3w with paclitaxel · IV ⚠ NSZU — not for this indication
  • Bevacizumab (DRUG-BEVACIZUMAB) 15 mg/kg IV (optional — if no contraindication) · Day 1 q3w; continue with pembro maintenance after chemo · IV ⚠ NSZU — not for this indication
Reason
Provisional current-line default from ALGO-CERVICAL-METASTATIC-1L: step 1 did not select a treatment branch. Locally advanced FIGO IB3-IVA with curative intent → ALGO-CERVICAL-LOCALLY-ADVANCED-1L.

Red flags — PRO / CONTRA aggressive

PRO-AGGRESSIVE

Triggers that push toward the aggressive track
  • Patient with active or incompletely controlled pre-existing autoimmune or inflammatory disease (sarcoidosis, rheumatoid arthritis, IBD, SLE, autoimmune hepatitis, inflammatory myopathy, myasthenia gravis, or similar) is considered for immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy — elevated risk of immune-related adverse events (irAE) flare or de-novo grade 3-4 irAE. Requires specialist (rheumatology / pulmonology / gastroenterology) pre-treatment review; prefer lower-irAE-burden backbone when options exist (pembrolizumab mono > ipilimumab+nivolumab).
    Pre-existing autoimmune disease is present in ~10-15% of patients eligible for ICI therapy; historically excluded from pivotal trials. Real-world data (Abdel-Wahab 2018, 3557 pts) shows 55% experienced irAE flare and ~29% required…

  • Frailty profile precluding standard cisplatin-based chemoradiation in cervical cancer: ECOG ≥3, OR (age ≥75 with Charlson ≥3), OR composite (age ≥70 + albumin <3.0 + ≥2 comorbidities). Routes to carboplatin-CRT substitution or RT-alone (less efficacy but tolerable).
    Cisplatin radiosensitizer requires CrCl ≥60 — elderly often fall below. Carboplatin-CRT (AUC 2 weekly) is acceptable substitute when cisplatin intolerable, though less radiosensitizing per non-randomized comparisons. Frail elderly with…
    RF-CERVICAL-FRAILTY-AGESRC-NCCN-CERVICAL-2025SRC-ESMO-CERVICAL-2024
  • Hydronephrosis or pelvic-mass-induced ureteric obstruction in cervical cancer (FIGO IIIB by definition). Mandates urgent renal decompression (percutaneous nephrostomy or ureteric stent) BEFORE cisplatin-based CRT — cisplatin nephrotoxic + ureteric obstruction worsens AKI.
    FIGO IIIB definition includes hydronephrosis from tumor — substantial prognostic weight. Cisplatin radiosensitization needs CrCl ≥60; decompression first, restage CrCl, then proceed with CRT.
    RF-CERVICAL-HYDRONEPHROSIS-PELVIC-OBSTRUCTIONSRC-NCCN-CERVICAL-2025SRC-ESMO-CERVICAL-2024
  • Active or unmanaged infection requiring resolution before initiating cisplatin-based chemoradiation in cervical cancer: HIV-positive (HPV-driven disease — almost universal HIV testing recommended; CD4 informs cisplatin dosing and pelvic-RT field tolerance), HBV-positive (reactivation risk on prolonged chemoradiation), active pelvic abscess / pyometra (must drain before RT), or active TB.
    HIV testing recommended for all cervical cancer patients per NCCN (HPV / HIV co-infection extremely common). HIV+ patients tolerate cisplatin-CRT with ART optimization; CD4 <200 is relative contraindication — coordinate with HIV clinic…

CONTRA-AGGRESSIVE

Hard contraindications to escalation
  • —

What NOT to do

Explicit prohibitive rules, each grounded in a regimen / supportive care / contraindication entity
Standard plan (IND-CERVICAL-METASTATIC-1L-PEMBRO-CHEMO-BEV)
  • Do not prescribe bevacizumab in patients with active fistulas, untreated hypertension, proteinuria >2+, or history of perforation — risk of perforation / bleeding
  • Do not skip PD-L1 CPS testing — affects 1L choice
  • Do not start pembrolizumab without HBV/HCV/HIV screening + baseline thyroid
