About this trial
Patients with oligometastatic squamous cell carcinoma were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either PD-1 inhibitor +/- chemotherapy combined with local therapy or PD-1 inhibitor +/- chemotherapy alone.
The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). The secondary end points included overall survival, side effects and local control.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Progression-free survival difference of PD-1 inhibitor+radiotherapy and PD-1 inhibitor alone

Secondary outcomes
overall survival difference of PD-1 inhibitor+radiotherapy and PD-1 inhibitor alone
The time between the start of the study treatment(day 1) and death from an cause or last follow-up for patients alive at the end of the study
treatment related side effect
Record the treatment related side effects including acute and late side effects
local control rate
the portion of patients who do not develop progression disease or exacerbation of clinical symptoms despite stable disease
