Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patients must have had advanced or recurrent adenocarcinoma or adenosquamous cell
carcinoma of the cervix with documented disease progression

2. Patients must have had measurable disease defined as at least one lesion that could be
accurately measured in at least one dimension, which must have been 20 mm when
measured by conventional techniques including palpation, plain X-ray, computerized
tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) or 10 mm when measured by spiral
CT

3. 18 years of age or older

4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score < 2 and a life
expectancy >3 months

5. Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks

6. Participants must have measureable disease by RECIST criteria

7. Absolute neutrophil count > 1500 mm3, platelet count ≥ 100×109 L, hemoglobin ≥ 8.5
g/dL

8. Creatinine clearance ≥ 45 mL/min using the standard Cockcroft and Gault formula
(below) or glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measured by
Tc99m-diethylenetriaminepentacetate (DPTA) serum clearance method:

1. Males: [140 - Age in years] × Actual Body Weight (kg) 72 × Serum Creatinine
(mg/dL)

2. Females: Estimated creatinine clearance for males × 0.85

9. Total bilirubin ≤ 2 mg/dL, aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT)
AST/ALT ≤ 5 times the upper limit of normal range

10. At least 21 days from administration of chemotherapy

11. No remaining grade 2 or higher toxicity from prior cancer therapies unless judged to
be clinically insignificant by the Principal Investigator

12. At least four (4) weeks from prior major surgery

13. Willingness to provide permission to access archived tumor samples and additional
blood samples for evaluation of Foundation One Analysis where available Enterprise
wide.

14. Women of child-bearing potential (i.e., women who are pre-menopausal or not surgically
sterile) must be willing to use an acceptable contraceptive method (abstinence, oral
contraceptive or double barrier method) for the duration of the study and for 30 days
following the last dose of study drug, and must have a negative urine or serum
pregnancy test within 2 weeks prior to beginning treatment on this trial.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Uncontrolled cardiac disease, congestive heart failure, angina, arrhythmias or
hypertension.

2. Myocardial infarction or unstable angina within 2 months of treatment.

3. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or chronic active Hepatitis B or C
(patients are NOT required to be tested for the presence of such viruses prior to
therapy on this protocol).

4. Active clinically serious infection > CTCAE (version 4.03) Grade 2.

5. Thrombotic or embolic events such as a cerebrovascular accident including transient
ischemic attacks within the past 6 months.

6. Pulmonary hemorrhage/bleeding event ≥ CTCAE Grade 2 within 4 weeks of first dose of
study drug.

7. Any other hemorrhage/bleeding event ≥ CTCAE Grade 3 within 4 weeks of first dose of
study drug.

8. Serious non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.

9. Major surgery, open biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks of first
study drug.

10. Inability to complete informed consent process and adhere to the protocol treatment
plan and follow-up requirements.

11. Concurrent severe illness such as active infection, or psychiatric illness/social
situations that would limit safety and compliance with study requirements.
