Are new drugs against cervical cancer available in 2016?

Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among women aged 15 to 44 in my country. In the early stage, it is mostly contact bleeding; in the middle and late stages, it is irregular vaginal bleeding. The amount of bleeding varies according to the size of the lesion and the invasion of the interstitial blood vessels. If the large blood vessels are invaded, it can cause heavy bleeding. Young patients may also experience prolonged menstruation and increased menstrual flow; elderly patients often have irregular vaginal bleeding after menopause. So are there any new anti-cervical cancer drugs on the market in 2016?

On July 18, 2016, British pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline announced that its vaccine CervarixTM for preventing cervical cancer in women has obtained marketing authorization from the China Food and Drug Administration, becoming the first approved HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine for preventing cervical cancer in my country.
HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening together will provide Chinese women with better means to prevent cervical cancer. The State Food and Drug Administration stated on its official website on the 18th that this vaccine is the first new vaccine to be applied for listing in my country, and research data shows that the safety and effectiveness of its application in the target population in China are consistent with those abroad. The approval of this vaccine provides a new and effective means for the prevention of cervical cancer in my country.
