Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. M1 (one or more distant sites, organs or peritoneal metastasis); 2. Lateral lymph node metastasis; 3. Rectal cancer surgery other than fistulization before enrollment; 4. Previous PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy and any anti-tumor treatment; 5. Previous history of malignant tumors (except cured cervical carcinoma in situ, cutaneous basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, superficial bladder cancer, early thyroid cancer); 6. Other conditions considered unsuitable by the physician in charge; 7. Severe metamorphosis/allergic reactions to humanized antibodies or fusion protein; 8. Female patients who are pregnant, lactating, and fertile without contraceptive measures; 9. Diagnosis of immunodeficiency or are receiving systemic glucocorticoid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 14 days before the first dose of the study, physiological doses of glucocorticoids (= 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent drugs) are allowed; 10.Subjects with active, known or suspected autoimmune diseases (eg, interstitial pneumonia, colitis, hepatitis, hypophysitis, vasculitis, nephritis, hypothyroidism, including but not limited to these diseases or syndromes) were excluded.Subjects with type I diabetes, hypothyroidism requiring only hormone replacement therapy, skin disease not requiring systemic therapy (eg, vitiligo, psoriasis, or alopecia), or who are not expected to reproduce in the absence of external triggers may be enrolled; 11.Patients with pre-existing severe heart disease, including: congestive heart failure, uncontrolled high-risk arrhythmia, unstable angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, severe valvular heart disease; 12.Presence of active hepatitis B (HBV DNA ? 2000 IU/ml or 104copies/ml), hepatitis C (hepatitis C antibody positive, and HCV-RNA above the lower limit of detection of the analytical method). 13.
