For patients with FIGO stage III-IVA locally advanced cervical cancer, irrespective of PD-L1 status, chemoradiation plus pembrolizumab followed by maintenance pembrolizumab also confers a survival benefit. For newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer responding to primary systemic chemotherapy, maintenance therapy using PARP inhibitors and/or bevacizumab according to germline and somatic mutational analysis have been demonstrated to improve progression-free survival. Tumor heterogeneity, acquired drug resistance, and adverse events limit long-term effectiveness. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) represent an innovative new class of medicines with activity in gynecologic malignancies and distinct toxicity profiles attributable to ADC construction. Adverse event mitigation strategies, biomarker discovery, and sequencing are paramount in successfully exploiting the therapeutic window provided by these novel compounds.
