About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of pirfenidone and PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with or without hypofractionated radiotherapy in the treatment of advanced refractory pMMR/MSS colorectal cancer patients.

Patients must have progressed on standard therapy, be unsuitable for standard therapy due to intolerable toxicity, have no available standard therapy, or have refused standard therapy.
Disqualifiers
All colorectal cancer patients must have confirmed MSS/pMMR status; patients with MSI-H/dMMR are excluded.
History of hypersensitivity to any study drug components, including PD-1 inhibitors and pirfenidone.
Female patients who are pregnant, lactating, or planning to become pregnant within 6 months after the last dose of the study drug.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Progression Free Survival(PFS)
Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the initiation of study treatment to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever comes first.
Secondary outcomes
Overall Survival
The time from the date of randomization to the death caused by any cause
Objective Response Rate
The proportion of patients in a study cohort whose best overall response achieves either a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR), as defined by standardized oncologic criteria (such as RECIST 1.1), during the course of the treatment period.
dverse events (AEs) were graded according to the NCI CTCAE version 5·0
