Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Age at least 18 years. ECOG PS 0-1. Pathologically confirmed NSCLC, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma or thymic epithelial tumor. Life expectancy of more than 3 months. Patients with no indications for palliative radiotherapy in the opinion of the investigator. Patients with a prior history of surgery are eligible if they have recovered adequately from the toxicity and/or complications of surgery. Signed informed consent for the use of fresh tumor biopsies before and during the treatment. Women of childbearing age and men must agree to use effective contraception during the trial. Adequate organ function within 1 week prior to the enrollment: 1. Adequate bone marrow function: hemoglobin ≥80g/L, white blood cell (WBC) count ≥ 4.0 \* 10 \^ 9/L or neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 \* 10 \^ 9/L, and platelet count ≥ 100 \* 10 \^ 9/L; 2. Adequate hepatic function: total bilirubin \< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN). Note: If total bilirubin is \> 1.5 x ULN, direct bilirubin must ≤ ULN, Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤2.5 ULN; 3. Adequate renal function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min;
Exclusion criteria
Pregnant or lactating women. History of any other malignancy. Patients in whom palliative radiotherapy is indicated in the opinion of the investigator. Active infection, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within the 6 months prior to enrollment, unstable angina pectoris or cardiac arrhythmia.

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Survival | Five years | OS was defined as the time from the date of enrollment until death by any cause. Participants still alive at the time of data analysis were censored at the date of last follow-up. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Progression Free Survival | Five years | PFS was measured from the date of enrollment to the date of disease progression as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST) Version 1.1 or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first |
