This is a phase Ib study of anlotinib plus a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor TQB2450 for platinum-resistant or -refractory ovarian cancer. Thirty-four patients are enrolled and receive treatment. The objective response rate (ORR) is 47.1%, and the disease control rate is 97.1%. The median duration of response (DOR) has not been reached, and 61.3% of patients have a DOR of at least 8 months. The median progression-free survival (PFS) is 7.8 months, and the median overall survival (OS) has not been reached. The PD-L1-positive group has an ORR of 25.0%, whereas the PD-L1-negative group has an ORR of 92.9%. Treatment-related grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs) occur in 70.6% of patients, with the most common being hypertension (29.4%) and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome (29.4%). Anlotinib plus TQB2450 show promising antitumor activity and manageable toxicities in patients with platinum-resistant or -refractory ovarian cancer. A phase 3 randomized controlled trial to further validate our findings is ongoing.
