Elvina Almuradova: Immunotherapy for HPV-Associated Cancers

Elvina Almuradova, Associate Professor of Oncology at the European Institute of Oncology, shared an article by Charalampos S. Floudas, et al. on LinkedIn:

“Immunotherapy for HPV-Associated Cancers.

A recent phase 1/2 clinical trial published in JAMA Oncology explores a novel combination immunotherapy for advanced HPV-associated cancers. The study evaluates the efficacy of PDS01ADC (IL-12 antibody-drug conjugate), bintrafusp alfa (PD-L1/TGF-β inhibitor), and PDS0101 (HPV-16 therapeutic vaccine) in previously treated patients.

Key findings:

  • 36.7% response rate in immune checkpoint blockade–naive patients.
  • 62.5% response rate in patients with HPV-16–positive tumors.
  • Promising antitumor activity and improved survival.

These results highlight the potential of this combination therapy, warranting further investigation.

Could this be a new standard for HPV-associated cancers?”
