Has histologically confirmed Stage III, IVa, or IVb disease per TNM staging, American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC, 8th edition), with recurrent or persistent disease after definitive chemoradiation, deemed unresectable and considered refractory to both platinum-based combination chemotherapy and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody therapy OR ii. Has histologically confirmed Stage IVc disease per TNM staging, AJCC 8th edition, considered refractory to platinum-based combination chemotherapy and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody therapy.

9. Women of childbearing potential include any female who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone successful surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or is not postmenopausal.

    Highly effective methods of contraception are hormonal contraceptives (oral, injectable, patch, intrauterine devices), male partner sterilization, or total abstinence from heterosexual intercourse, when this is the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient. Note: The double-barrier method (eg, synthetic condoms, diaphragm, or cervical cap with spermicidal foam, cream, or gel), periodic abstinence (such as calendar, symptothermal, post-ovulation), withdrawal (coitus interruptus), lactational amenorrhea method, and spermicide only are not acceptable as highly effective methods of contraception
11. Patients has adequate hematologic and organ function, defined as:

    1. ANC ≥1500 mm3 without requiring G-CSF
    2. Platelets ≥100,000/mm3
    3. Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL Note: Patients with Hb 7 to ≤9 g/dL (without bleeding) transfused prior to dosing in order to meet eligibility criteria
    4. Serum creatinine ≤1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN) for the reference laboratory or creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min within the 28 days before enrollment (calculated from Cockcroft-Gault formula or 24 hour urine collection).
    5. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST) ≤3.0× the upper limit of normal (ULN) if no liver involvement or ≤5×ULN with liver involvement
    6. Adequate coagulation: prothrombin time (PT), an International Normalized Ratio (INR) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) ≤1.5×ULN or for patients requiring anticoagulant therapy, the PT/INR, aPTT should be within therapeutic range of the given anticoagulant agent
    7. Total bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN (or total serum bilirubin ≤3×ULN for patients with Gilbert's disease)
12. Patients must be willing and able to provide written informed consent prior to the performance of any study-specific procedure

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Women who are pregnant or lactating or expecting to conceive a child within the projected duration of the study

8. Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years (ie, with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressive drugs) except vitiligo or resolved childhood asthma/atopy.

12. Patients who have undergone major surgery within the last 4 weeks

Prior radiation therapy: permissible if at least 1 non-irradiated measurable lesion is available for assessment according to RECIST version 1.1 or if a solitary measurable lesion was irradiated, objective progression is documented. A wash out of at least 28 days before start of study treatment for radiation of any intended use to the extremities for bone metastases and 28 days for radiation to the chest, brain, or visceral organs is required.
