- Have active autoimmune diseases that require systemic treatment within 2 years before enrolment;
- Active tuberculosis, having antituberculosis therapy at present or within 1 year;
- Have a known history of prior invasive malignancies within 5 years before enrolment;
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the trial;

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Radiotherapy+anti-PD-1 antibody
The total radiation dose is over 45Gy without damaging organic function. Conventional intensity-modulated radiotherapy or stereotactic body radiation therapy are both allowed. Camrelizumab 200mg intravenously every 3 weeks will be initiated within 7 days after radiotherapy. Patients will receive camrelizumab until clinical or radiographic disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death or withdrawal. If disease progression is confirmed by radiologic examinations, another 200mg camrelizumab should be applied to the patient, then another radiologic examination will be performed 4 weeks later to confirm or exclude progression. If progression is confirmed, the camrelizumab should be stopped.
