| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pirfenidone in combination with a PD-1 inhibitor and hypofractionated radiotherapy | Experimental | Patients will receive a PD-1 inhibitor (200 mg, intravenously, every 3 weeks) in combination with oral pirfenidone. The dose of pirfenidone will be up-titrated as follows: from days 1 to 14 at 200 mg three times daily (TID); from days 15 to 29 at 400 mg TID; and from day 30 onwards at a maintenance dose of 600 mg TID. Pirfenidone will be continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Additionally, patients will undergo hypofractionated radiotherapy to the metastatic site(s) with a dose of 5 to 8 Gy per fraction for a total of 5 consecutive fractions. |

Exclusion Criteria:
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.
Known history or presence of active seizure disorder, active central nervous system metastases, spinal cord compression, carcinomatous meningitis, or leptomeningeal disease. Patients with newly identified brain or leptomeningeal metastases are excluded.
Significant cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases with clinical importance.
History of allergic predisposition, asthma, or atopic dermatitis.
Patients with massive pleural effusion or massive ascites.
Active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment (e.g., disease-modifying agents, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressants) within the past 2 years prior to the first dose. Replacement therapy is not considered systemic treatment.
Known history of allogeneic organ transplantation or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Known or suspected hypersensitivity to the study drugs or any of their excipients.
History of significant toxicity related to prior immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy or pirfenidone treatment that led to permanent discontinuation of the drug.
Presence of unresolved > Grade 1 toxicities (except for persistent Grade 2 alopecia, peripheral neuropathy, decreased hemoglobin, or hypomagnesemia) from any prior anticancer therapy.
Active uncontrolled bleeding, known bleeding tendency, severe non-healing wounds, ulcers, fractures, or conditions such as esophageal/gastric varices requiring immediate intervention, or portal hypertension with high bleeding risk per investigator's assessment.
History of intestinal obstruction (except if surgically cured or fully resolved) or risk of gastrointestinal perforation within 28 days prior to the first study dose.
Current or recent (within 6 months) significant gastrointestinal disorders, including:
Gastrointestinal diseases or prior surgeries that may affect the absorption of oral pirfenidone; uncontrolled tumor-related pain or symptomatic hypercalcemia.
Known positive HIV status, active Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, tuberculosis, or history of such infections. Exceptions include:
