Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

SBRT+GM-CSF+INF-αb

Arm Description

Metastasis lesion will be treated with a SBRT of 30Gy/5F from day 1 to day 5 . Injection of Immunological Agenthuman recombined granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (125ug/m² per day) will be executed from day 1 to day 14 in this cycle.Subcutaneous injection of Peginterferon alfa-b2(90ug) will be executed in day8. Another metastasis lesion will be treated likewise concurrently with rhGM-CSF in a consecutive cycle. Injection of Peginterferon alfa-b2(90ug) will be executed in day8 of this cycle.
