Preclinical and clinical studies have shown that intestinal low dose radiotherapy (ILDR) can enhance antitumor immunity and response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). Therefore, the investigators launch a phase Ⅱ trial to evaluate the clinical value of combining ILDR and programmed cell death-1/ -ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors in patients with ICB refractory metastatic solid tumor. This study is designed as a researcher-initiated, two-stage and prospective clinical trial. The target population is patients with advanced metastatic malignant solid tumors who have progressed after immunotherapy. The primary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival while receiving ILDR combined therapy (PFS2), and lesion-based abscopal response rate. The secondary endpoints include incidence of adverse events (AEs), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and overall response rate (OS). Sixteen subjects will be enrolled in this trial. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 1Gy ILDR combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in immune-resistant metastatic malignant solid tumors, and biomarker exploration for response prediction. Eligible patients will be subjected to 1Gy ILDR. Tumor response will be assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 as well as Immune related RECIST (iRECSIST). The extent or severity of adverse reactions will be assessed using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) (version 5.0). Furthermore, tissue samples, stool samples, and peripheral blood samples will be collected for biomarker exploration.
