9. .Normal myocardial enzyme levels (subjects with isolated laboratory abnormalities that the investigator determines to have no clinical significance may still be eligible for inclusion). (Optional) 12.For female subjects of reproductive potential, a urine or serum pregnancy test must be performed within 3 days prior to the first dose of study medication (Cycle 1, Day 1), and the result must be negative. If the urine pregnancy test result cannot be confirmed as negative, a blood pregnancy test is required. Non-reproductive-aged females are defined as those who are at least 1 year postmenopausal or have undergone surgical sterilization or hysterectomy.

13.If there is a risk of pregnancy, all subjects (male and female) must use a contraceptive method with a failure rate of less than 1% throughout the treatment period and for 120 days after the last dose of study drug (or for 180 days after the last dose of chemotherapy).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Previously received chemotherapy, cetuximab, or other anti-EGFR targeted therapies;
2. Previously received any of the following therapies: anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2 drugs, or drugs targeting other stimulatory or co-inhibitory T cell receptors (e.g., CTLA-4, OX-40, CD137) (adjustable);
3. Symptomatic or high-risk conditions such as obstruction, bleeding, perforation, pneumonia (including non-infectious pneumonia treated with corticosteroids or ongoing pneumonia treatment);
4. Diagnosed with other malignant diseases outside of colorectal cancer within 5 years prior to the first dose (excluding surgically cured basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, and/or surgically resected carcinoma in situ);
5. Currently participating in an interventional clinical trial or received other investigational drugs or devices within 4 weeks prior to the first dose;
6. Received traditional Chinese medicine with antitumor indications or immune-regulating drugs (including thymosin, interferons, interleukins, excluding local use for pleural effusion) as systemic therapy within 2 weeks prior to the first dose;
7. Experienced an active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment (e.g., disease-modifying drugs, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressants) within 2 years prior to the first dose. Replacement therapies (e.g., thyroid hormone, insulin, or physiological corticosteroids for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) are not considered systemic treatments;
8. Receiving systemic corticosteroid therapy (excluding nasal, inhaled, or other forms of localized corticosteroids) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of the study drug. Note: Physiological doses of corticosteroids (≤10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent) are allowed;
9. Received blood transfusion within 7 days prior to the first dose of treatment;
10. Clinically uncontrolled pleural or peritoneal effusion (patients who do not require drainage or have stable effusion for 3 days after stopping drainage may be enrolled);
11. Known history of allogeneic organ transplantation (except corneal transplantation) or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation;
12. Known allergy to the study drug, sindilizumab, chemotherapy, targeted drug active ingredients, or excipients;
13. Presence of multiple factors affecting oral drug absorption (e.g., difficulty swallowing, post-gastrointestinal resection, chronic diarrhea, intestinal obstruction, etc.);
14. Not fully recovered from toxicity and/or complications caused by any previous interventions before starting treatment (i.e., ≤ Grade 1 or back to baseline, excluding fatigue or alopecia);
15. Known history of HIV infection (i.e., HIV 1/2 antibody positive).
16. Untreated active hepatitis B (defined as HBsAg positive with detectable HBV-DNA copy numbers greater than the normal value upper limit in the testing laboratory of the research center); Note: Hepatitis B patients who meet the following criteria may also be included:

1).HBV viral load \<1000 copies/ml (200 IU/ml) before the first dose; the participant should receive anti-HBV treatment throughout the study chemotherapy period to prevent viral reactivation.

2).For participants who are anti-HBc (+), HBsAg (-), anti-HBs (-), and have a negative HBV viral load, prophylactic anti-HBV treatment is not required, but close monitoring for viral reactivation is necessary.

17.Active HCV infection (HCV antibody positive and HCV-RNA level above the detection limit).

18.Vaccination with live vaccines within 30 days before the first dose (Cycle 1, Day 1); Note: An inactivated seasonal flu vaccine is allowed within 30 days prior to the first dose. However, intranasal live attenuated flu vaccines are not permitted.

19.Pregnant or breastfeeding women. 20.Presence of any serious or uncontrolled systemic diseases, such as:

1. .Significant and symptomatic abnormalities in rhythm, conduction, or morphology on resting electrocardiogram that are difficult to control, such as complete left bundle branch block, second-degree or higher heart block, ventricular arrhythmias, or atrial fibrillation;
2. .Unstable angina, congestive heart failure, or chronic heart failure with New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification ≥ 2.
3. .History of any arterial thrombosis, embolism, or ischemia within 6 months prior to enrollment, such as myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cerebrovascular accidents, or transient ischemic attacks (TIA), etc.;

10. .Poorly controlled diabetes (fasting blood glucose (FBG) \> 10 mmol/L);
11. .Urinalysis showing urine protein ≥ ++, and confirmed 24-hour urine protein quantification \> 1.0 g;
12. .Presence of psychiatric disorders that prevent the patient from cooperating with the treatment; 21.A history or evidence of diseases that may interfere with the trial results, hinder the subject's full participation in the study, abnormal treatment or laboratory test values, or any other situation the investigator deems unsuitable for inclusion, including potential risks considered by the investigator that would make the participant unsuitable for this study.
