Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Clinical cure rate [ Time Frame: During treatment(1 month to 6 months) ]
    the proportion of patients who completely respond to the treatment at any study time point

  2. Clinical response rate [ Time Frame: During treatment(1 month to 6 months) ]
    the proportion of patients who respond to the treatment at any study time point


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Surgical rate [ Time Frame: During treatment(1 month to 6 months) ]
    the proportion of patients who receive surgery at any study time point

  2. Local recurrence rate [ Time Frame: Within 6 months after treatment ]
    the proportion of patients who recur at any study time point

  3. Adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE) [ Time Frame: During treatment(1 month to 6 months) ]
    For adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE), refer to NCI-CTC AE 5.0 standard.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Expression of immune cells [ Time Frame: During treatment(1 month to 6 months) ]
    Expression of immune cells (T cell, B cell, NK cell)

  2. Expression of cytokines (IL, INF-r, TNF-a) [ Time Frame: During treatment(1 month to 6 months) ]
    Expression of cytokines (IL, INF-r, TNF-a)

  3. C-reactive protein [ Time Frame: During treatment(1 month to 6 months) ]
    Expression of c-reactive protein

  4. Clinical symptom scores [ Time Frame: During treatment(1 month to 6 months) ]
    Clinical symptom scores were measured using traditional Chinese medicine clinical symptom assessment with reference to The Disease Diagnosis Curative Effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine Standard. The clinical symptom scales include mass size, swelling, discharge, retraction, abscess, fistula. The higher the score, the worse the symptom. Clinical symptom scores of patients before and after treatment were observed and compared.
