Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
ORR (objective response rate)	through study completion, up to 2 year	the proportion of patients who have a partial or complete response to therapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
LCR (local control rate)	through study completion, up to 2 year	the percentage of lesions with absence of recurrence within the high-dose region （80% isodose volume）
OS (overall survival)	through study completion, up to 2 year	defined as the time from receiving treatment until death from any cause. Patients who withdraw or who are lost to follow-up will be censored at the date last known to be alive. Patients remaining alive throughout the duration of the study will have their survival time censored on the date last seen alive.
DCR (disease control rate)	through study completion, up to 2 year	the proportion of patients whose tumors have shrunk or been stable for a certain period of time, including cases of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD).
PFS (progression-free survival)	through study completion, up to 2 year	defined as the time from receiving treatment until disease progression or death from any cause, whichever happens first. Patients who withdraw or who are lost to follow-up will be censored at the date last known to be alive and progression free. Patients not having an event will be censored at the date last seen alive.
Adverse effects	through study completion, up to 2 year	Adverse effects of sintilimab and bevacizumab combined with radiotherapy,number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0
