Background: To assess the safety and efficacy of toripalimab combined with chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced cervical squamous cell carcinoma (Chinese Clinical Trial Registry number, ChiCTR2000032879). Methods: Twenty-two locally advanced cervical cancer patients, regardless of programmed death ligand-1 status, received toripalimab treatment combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT) includes cisplatin (40 mg/m2, once a week for 5 weeks), radiotherapy (external irradiation 45-50.4Gy/25-28Fx, 5 fractions a week, followed by brachytherapy 24-30Gy/3-5Fx) and toripalimab (240mg on days 1, 22 and 43). The primary end-point was safety and feasibility. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS). Results: The median age was 55 years old (range, 42 to 72 years old), with 2 patients in FIGO stage II, 15 patients in stage IIIC, and 5 patients in stage IVA. All patients have received CCRT successfully. Grade III and higher adverse events (AEs) were observed in 10 patients (10/22, 45.5%), and no patient had a grade V AE. The most frequent grade III AE was leukopenia (8/22, 36.4%). The most common immunotherapy-related adverse reaction was hypothyroidism (2/22, 9.1%). The 3-month ORR rate was 95.5%. At data cutoff (Jan 31, 2022), the median follow-up was 10 months (range, 3.30 to 16.73 months). One patient developed multiple metastases 3 months after treatment, and 1 patient developed lung metastasis 6 months after treatment. The ORR was 100%, while the PFS rate was 90.1%, and the OS rate was 95.5%. Conclusions: Toripalimab combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy demonstrated a manageable safety profile and promising anti-tumor activity in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer, thus might represent a novel treatment option for this patient population. Longer follow-up results and further phase II/III studies are expected. Clinical trial information: ChiCTR2000032879.
