What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall survival
Time Frame: 2 years
Defined from date of randomization to date of first documentation of death from any cause or censored at the date of the last follow-up.
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progress-free survival (PFS)
Time Frame: 2 years
Defined from date of randomization to date of first documentation of progression or death due to any cause.
2 years
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: After the completion of the PD-1 antibody and chemoradiotherapy treatment
An objective response is defined as either a confirmed CR or a PR, as determined by the investigator using RECIST v1.1Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) from the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
After the completion of the PD-1 antibody and chemoradiotherapy treatment
Incidence rate of adverse events (AEs)
Time Frame: 2 years
Analysis of adverse events (AEs) are based on treatment-related AEs (trAEs) and immune-related AEs (irAEs), and all-grade AEs and grade 3-4 AEs. AEs are evaluated by investigators according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5.0
2 years
Change of QoL (quality of life)
Time Frame: 1 year
QoL scores were assessed by using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire C30 (EORTCQLQ-C30) before radiotherapy, at the end of radiotherapy, at 12 months after radiotherapy.
1 year
