Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: SBRT + PD-1 Arm
Patients assigned to this arm will receive SBRT followed by sintilimab. Patients will receive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) using volumetric arc therapy. The prescribed dose is 30-54 Gy in 3-6 fractions over 1-2 weeks. In the SBRT + PD-1 arm, sintilimab is administered intravenously at 200 mg every 3 weeks for up to 1 year. The first course of sintilimab will be given within 4-6 weeks after completion of SBRT.

Radiation: stereotactic body radiotherapy
Patients will receive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) using volumetric arc therapy. The prescribed dose is 30-54 Gy in 3-6 fractions over 1-2 weeks.
Other Name: SBRT Drug: Sintilimab Sintilimab is administered intravenously at 200 mg every 3 weeks for up to 1 year. The first course of sintilimab will be given within 4-6 weeks after completion of SBRT.

SBRT Arm
Patients assigned to this arm will receive SBRT alone. Patients will receive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) using volumetric arc therapy. The prescribed dose is 30-54 Gy in 3-6 fractions over 1-2 weeks.

- 24-week progression-free survival (PFS) rate [ Time Frame: 24 weeks after radiotherapy ]The proportion of patients with progression disease according to mRECIST at 24 weeks from randomization.
- Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 2 years from randomization ]From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause or the date of first documented disease progression whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.
- Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: 2 years from randomization ]From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause or the date of last follow-up, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.
- 24-week overall response rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: 24 weeks after radiotherapy ]The proportion of patients with complete response or partial response according to mRECIST at 24 weeks from randomization.
- 24-week disease control rate (DCR) [ Time Frame: 24 weeks after radiotherapy ]The proportion of patients with complete response, partial response or stable disease according to mRECIST at 24 weeks from randomization.
- Duration of response (DOR) [ Time Frame: 2 years from randomization ]From date of first CR/PR to the date of first PD according to RECIST criteria, assessed up to 24 months.
- Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 2 years from randomization ]Treatment-related adverse events are graded according to the Common Toxicity Criteria, version 4.0, and were registered from the date of informed consent until discontinuation of trial treatment.
