The response rate of traditional first-line chemotherapy for recurrent or persistent advanced cervical cancer was low. This single arm, open, phase II trial would recruit 37 eligible patients. A combination of cisplatin, paclitaxel and apatinib would be given for first 23 patients. If at least 13 patients achieved complete or partial remission, the same regimen would be given for rest patients. The primary end is overall response rate (ORR). The second ends include progression-free survival, overall survival, disease control rate, remission duration, and adverse events. A molecular testing, mainly consisting of genomic analysis, will be carried in the oncologic tissues.
