Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether chemotherapy combination with local radiotherapy and rhGM-CSF is safe, effective in the treatment of oligometastatic stage IV NSCLC patients.
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to determine whether chemotherapy combination with local radiotherapy and recombined human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor(rhGM-CSF) is safe, effective in the treatment of oligometastatic stage IV NSCLC patients who were PR or SD after first-line chemotherapy,and to observe the abscopal effect, whether the scheme can improve PFS and OS.
Interventions
rhGM-CSF is a stimulator of the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells committed to neutrophils, monocytes or eosinophils. rhGM-CSF can promote the maturation of dendritic cells and macrophage, increase their antigen presentation ability.
Pemetrexed (brand name Alimta) is a chemotherapy drug manufactured and marketed by Eli Lilly and Company. Its indications are the treatment of pleural mesothelioma and non-small cell lung cancer.
Radiotherapy promotes the release of tumor antigen
Other chemotherapy drugs,such as Docetaxel, gemcitabine

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Stage IV NSCLC patients without clear driving genes who were PR or SD after standard first-line chemotherapy; 2. Patients who were oligometastasis evaluated by PET-CT or other examinations after first-line chemotherapy. Eligible patients should have 2 to 5 distant metastases (at least 2 metastases were suitable for low fractionated radiotherapy). At least one distant measurable lesion outside the radiation sites. 3.

Able to understand and give written informed consent and comply with study procedures.
Exclusion criteria
1. Allergy of rhGM-CSF and its accessories. 2. Disease of systemic immune or immune disorders. 3. Histology confirmed small cell carcinoma or other malignant compositions in the cancer tissue. 4. Patients with thrombotic disease or platelets ≥600×109/L 5. Cancer history within 5 years apart from NSCLC before enrollment. 6. Tumor related immunotherapy within 4 weeks, including but not limited to immune cell therapy, tumor vaccine therapy, Immune checkpoint therapy, and other immunomodulators (such as thymosin, lentinan) except for rhGM-CSF. 7. The abnormality of kidney , heart or lung functions(serum creatinine, Cr\>177mol/L; serum AST or ALT more than 2 times above normal limits; total bilirubin, TBIL\>34mol/L). 8.
