Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • DFS

    Disease free survival

    From date of randomization until the date of first documented recurrence, metastasis or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • OS

    From randomization to death of any cause,assessed up to 60 months

  • LRFS

    From randomization to local recurrence or death,assessed up to 24 months

  • DMFS

    From randomization to distant metastasis or death, assessed up to 24 months

  • 1-and 2-year DFS rate

    end of 1st year, end of 2nd year

  • 1-and 2-year OS rate

    end of 1st year, end of 2nd year

Study Arms (2)

The control group

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in the control group would go through observation and follow-up after recurrent endoscopic surgery.

The experimental group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in the experimental group would be implemented with adjuvant therapy including chemotherapy and immunotherapy after endoscopic surgery.

Drug: Immunotherapy,Toripalimab InjectionDrug: Chemotherapy,Gemcitabine based regimen

Interventions

Patients in the experimental group would be implemented with adjuvant Immunotherapy and chemotherapy after endoscopic surgery. Four to six cycles chemotherapy and 10 cycles immunotherapy,or until unacceptable side effects.

  • Uncontrolled illnesses which will interfere with the ability to undergo therapy;
  • Suffering from another or multiple malignancy within 5 years (excluding fully treated basal cell or skin squamous cell carcinoma, cervical carcinoma in situ);
  • Any contradiction to immune and chemotherapy;
  • With serious autoimmune disease;
  • Currently usage of immunosuppressive agents or systemic glucocorticoid therapy (dosage\>10mg/day prednisone or other glucocorticoids), and continuing to use them within 2 weeks before the first administration of trial drugs;
  • Severe allergic reactions to other monoclonal antibodies;
  • History of radioactive particle planting;
  • Vaccination with live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to initial administration or possibly during the study period;
