Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression-free survival, PFS

    defined as the time from the commencement of radiotherapy until disease progression or death from any cause, whichever happens first. Patients who withdraw or who are lost to follow-up will be censored at the date of the last adequate tumor assessment. Patients not having an event will be censored at the date of the last adequate tumor assessment. If patients don't have baseline tumor assessments, they will be censored at the date of the first treatment.

    one years

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Overall survival, OS

    one years

  • Adverse events, AE

    one years

  • Objective response rate, ORR

    one years

  • Disease control rate, DCR

    one years

Study Arms (1)

Radiotherapy+anti-PD-1 antibody

EXPERIMENTAL

The total radiation dose is over 45Gy without damaging organic function. Conventional intensity-modulated radiotherapy or stereotactic body radiation therapy are both allowed. Camrelizumab 200mg intravenously every 3 weeks will be initiated within 7 days after radiotherapy. Patients will receive camrelizumab until clinical or radiographic disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death or withdrawal. If disease progression is confirmed by radiologic examinations, another 200mg camrelizumab should be applied to the patient, then another radiologic examination will be performed 4 weeks later to confirm or exclude progression. If progression is confirmed, the camrelizumab should be stopped.

Combination Product: Radiotherapy+anti-PD-1 antibody

Interventions

The total radiation dose is over 45Gy without damaging organic fucntion. Conventional intensity-modulated radiotherapy or stereotactic body radiation therapy are both allowed. Camrelizumab 200mg intravenously every 3 weeks will be initiated within 7 days after radiotherapy. Patients will receive camrelizumab until clinical or radiographic disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death or withdrawal. If disease progression is confirmed by radiologic examinations, another 200mg camrelizumab should be applied to the patient, then another radiologic examination will be performed 4 weeks later to confirm or exclude progression. If progression is confirmed, the camrelizumab should be stopped.

  • Uncontrollable hypertension, systolic pressure\>140mmHg or diastolic pressure\>90mmHg after best medical care, or history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy;
  • Symptomatic congestive heart failure (NYHA class II-IV). Symptomatic or badly-controlled arrhythmia. Congenital long QT syndrome or modified QTc\>500ms upon screening;
  • Have active autoimmune diseases that require systemic treatment within 2 years before enrolment;
  • Active tuberculosis, having antituberculosis therapy at present or within 1 year;
  • Have a known history of prior invasive malignancies within 5 years before enrolment;
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the trial;
