About this study
Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Open-label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Sacituzumab Tirumotecan (MK-2870) in Combination With Pembrolizumab With or Without Bevacizumab Compared With Standard of Care as Firstline Maintenance Treatment for Participants With Persistent, Recurrent, or Newly Diagnosed Metastatic Cervical Cancer With PD-L1 CPS Greater Than or Equal to 1 (TroFuse-036/GOG-3123/ENGOT-cx22)
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat metastatic cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is cancer in the cervix, the lower part of the uterus (womb). Metastatic means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body.
Researchers want to learn about giving the study medicine sacituzumab tirumotecan (also called sac-TMT or MK-2870) along with pembrolizumab and bevacizumab treatments. Sac-TMT is an antibody drug conjugate, which is a type of medicine that attaches to specific targets on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells.

The goals of this study are to learn:
- About the safety of sac-TMT with pembrolizumab and bevacizumab, and if people tolerate them when given together, and
- If people who receive sac-TMT and pembrolizumab, with or without bevacizumab, live longer overall or without their cancer getting worse as compared to those who receive standard treatment
Read the detailed description
This is a 2-part study.
In Part 1 Safety Run-in, eligible participants will be allocated to treatment with sac-TMT + pembrolizumab + bevacizumab.
In Part 2, all participants receive standard of care induction treatment. Eligible participants whose cancer does not progress then begin maintenance treatment and are randomized to receive pembrolizumab or sac-TMT + pembrolizumab. All participants in Part 2 maintenance treatment may also receive bevacizumab at the investigator's discretion.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Part 1 Safety Run-in: Number of Participants Who Experience One or More Adverse Events (AEs)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Measured: Up to approximately 69 months
Part 1 Safety Run-in: Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an AE
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Measured: Up to approximately 66 months
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first, as assessed by RECIST 1.1 as evaluated by BICR. PD is defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered PD. PFS as assessed by BICR will be presented.
Measured: Up to approximately 48 months
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Overall Survival (OS)
OS is defined as time from randomization to death due to any cause. OS will be presented.
Measured: Up to approximately 60 months
Secondary outcomes (7)
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Progression-free Survival 2 (PFS2) as Assessed by the Investigator
PFS2 is defined as the time from randomization to the documented subsequent objective disease progression after initiation of new anticancer therapy or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. PFS2 as assessed by the investigator will be presented.
Measured: Up to approximately 60 months
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Number of Participants Who Experience One or More AEs
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Measured: Up to approximately 64 months
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an AE
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Measured: Up to approximately 61 months
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Change from Baseline in European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) Global Health Status and Quality of Life Combined Score
EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire to assess the overall quality of life (QoL) of cancer patients. Participant responses to questions regarding Global Health Status (GHS; "How would you rate your overall health during the past week?") and QoL ("How would you rate your overall quality of life during the past week?") are scored on a 7-point scale (1 = Very poor to 7 = Excellent). The combined score of GHS and QoL is computed by averaging the raw scores of the 2 questions and then applying a linear transformation to standardize the average score, so that the combined score ranges from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates a better outcome. The change from baseline in the EORTC QLQ-C30 GHS and QoL combined score will be presented.
Measured: Baseline and up to approximately 58 months
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Change from Baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 Physical Functioning Combined Score
EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire to assess the overall QoL of cancer patients. Participant responses to 5 questions about their physical functioning are scored on a 4-point scale (1 = Not at All to 4 = Very Much). The combined score is computed by averaging the raw scores of the 5 questions and then applying a linear transformation to standardize the average score, so that the combined score ranges from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates a better outcome. The change from baseline in the EORTC QLQ-C30 physical functioning combined score will be presented.
Measured: Baseline and up to approximately 58 months
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Change from Baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 Role Functioning Combined Score
EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire to assess the overall QoL of cancer patients. Participant responses to 2 questions about their role functioning are scored on a 4-point scale (1 = Not at All to 4 = Very Much). The combined score is computed by averaging the raw scores of the 2 items and then applying a linear transformation to standardize the average score, so that the combined score ranges from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates a better outcome. The change from baseline in the EORTC QLQ-C30 role functioning combined score will be presented.
Measured: Baseline and up to approximately 58 months
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Change from Baseline in EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire-Cervical Cancer Module (QLQ-CX24) Combined Score
EORTC QLQ-CX24 is a 24-item questionnaire that assesses symptoms common in women with cervical cancer and evaluates the impact of disease and/or its treatments. Items are rated on a 4-point scale (1 = Not at all to 4= Very Much) and are grouped into 3 multi-item scales (symptom experience, body image, and sexual/vaginal functioning) and 6 single-item scales (lymphedema, peripheral neuropathy, menopausal symptom, sexual concerns, sexual activity, and sexual enjoyment). The combined score is computed by averaging the raw scores of the items and then applying a linear transformation to standardize the average score, so that the combined scores range from 0-100. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms (lower quality of life) for symptoms scales, or better functioning for functional items. The change from baseline in the EORTC QLQ-CX24 combined score will be presented.
Measured: Baseline and up to approximately 58 months

Primary outcome
Part 1 Safety Run-in: Number of Participants Who Experience One or More Adverse Events (AEs)
Time frame: Up to approximately 69 months
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Part 1 Safety Run-in: Number of Participants Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to an AE
Time frame: Up to approximately 66 months
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
Time frame: Up to approximately 48 months
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first, as assessed by RECIST 1.1 as evaluated by BICR. PD is defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered PD. PFS as assessed by BICR will be presented.
Part 2 Maintenance Treatment: Overall Survival (OS)
Time frame: Up to approximately 60 months
OS is defined as time from randomization to death due to any cause. OS will be presented.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Pembrolizumab, Sacituzumab Tirumotecan and Bevacizumab in people with Cervical Cancer, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC at 191 sites in 29 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 191 sites in United States, Japan, Italy, Canada, Argentina and 24 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Toll Free Number (1-888-577-8839, Trialsites@msd.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Part 1 Safety Run-in: Number of Participants Who Experience One or More Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: Up to approximately 69 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Nov 2026.
