NCT02976740

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) combined with recombined human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor(rhGM-CSF) and Thymosin Alpha 1 is safe, effective in the treatment of stage IV NSCLC patients who failed in second-line chemotherapy.

Study Arms (1)

SBRT+GM-CSF+Tα1

EXPERIMENTAL

Metastasis lesion will be treated with a SBRT of 50Gy/4-10F from day 1 to day 10 . Subcutaneous injection of Immunological Agent- human recombined granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (125ug/m² per day) will be executed from day 1 to day 14 in this cycle. Another metastasis lesion will be treated likewise concurrently with rhGM-CSF in a consecutive cycle. Subcutaneous injection of another Immunological Factors Thymosin Alpha 1(1.6mg Biw)will be executed from the fist WEEK to the 12th Weeks.
