Brief summary
This is a phase III, multi-center, double-blind randomized controlled trial assessing the efficacy and safety of concurrent mitomycin C/5-Fu chemotherapy and long-course IMRT combined with PD-1 antibody Sintilimab for locally advanced anal canal squamous carcinoma patients, by comparing an experiment group (traditional chemoradiotherapy with PD-1 antibody Sintilimab) with a control group (traditional treatment without Sintilimab).
Interventions
Two cycles of concurrent PD-1 antibody sintilimab combined with mytomicin C, 5-fluorouracil and IMRT, followed by adjuvant sintilimab for six months
Two cycles of concurrent mytomicin C and 5-fluorouracil combined with IMRT
