Brief summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of CAV/IE chemotherapy combined with toripalimab versus CAV/IE chemotherapy alone in the treatment of patients with advanced or unresectable bone and soft tissue sarcomas who failed in standard treatment.

Detailed description: At present, there are many clinical trials of chemotherapy drugs combined with anti-PD-1 antibody in the treatment of tumor, but the clinical study of CAV/IE chemotherapy combined with anti-PD-1 antibody in the treatment of advanced or non resectable bone and soft tissue sarcoma has not been started, and the related research is still in the blank state. In view of the above problems, to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of CAV/IE chemotherapy combined with toripalimab versus CAV/IE chemotherapy alone in the treatment of advanced or non resectable bone and soft tissue sarcoma patients, so as to provide more treatment options for patients with advanced or non resectable bone and soft tissue sarcoma.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patients voluntarily participated in the study and signed informed consent;

   For all advanced or non resectable bone and soft tissue sarcomas confirmed by pathology, the standard treatment failed or there was no standard treatment. They were mainly synovial sarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, liposarcoma, fibrosarcoma, clear cell sarcoma, angiosarcoma, epithelioid sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, undiffertiated sarcoma, bone sarcoma, chondrosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, myofibroblastic sarcoma, malignant solitary fibroma, postradiation sarcoma,etc. But the pathological subtypes without standard treatment can be treated as first-line treatment, including but not limited to postradiation sarcoma, dedifferentiated / pleomorphic liposarcoma, clear cell sarcoma, etc., except for the following types: well differentiated liposarcoma, malignant mesothelioma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, etc;
2. Advanced patients with unresectable lesions or lymph nodes or distant metastasis assessed by imaging;
3. In the past three months, there was at least one measurable target lesion according to RECIST version 1.1 standard, and it can be accurately measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computer tomography (CT) in at least one direction (the maximum diameter needs to be recorded), with conventional CT ≥ 20 mm or spiral CT ≥ 10 mm.
4. They were 14-70 years old; ECOG PS score: 0-1; the expected survival time was more than 3 months;
5. Within 7 days before treatment, the main organ functions met the following criteria:

(1) Blood routine examination standard (without blood transfusion within 14 days)

① Hemoglobin (HB) ≥ 90g / L;

* The absolute value of neutrophil (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 109 / L;

  * Platelet (PLT) ≥ 80 × 109 / L.

    (2) Biochemical examination should meet the following standards:

    ① Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal value (ULN);
* Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase AST ≤ 2.5uln; ALT and AST ≤ 5uln with liver metastasis

  ③ Serum creatinine (CR) ≤ 1.5uln or creatinine clearance rate (CCR) ≥ 60ml / min;

  (3) Doppler ultrasound evaluation: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ the lower limit of normal value (50%).

  6)Women of childbearing age should agree that contraceptive measures (such as intrauterine device, contraceptive or condom) must be used during the study period and within 6 months after the end of the study; serum or urine pregnancy test negative within 7 days before study enrollment, and must be non lactating patients; men should agree that contraceptive measures must be used during the study period and within 6 months after the end of the study period.

Exclusion Criteria:

1) Patients who had previously received anti-PD-1 / PD-L1 antibody therapy.

2) Other malignancies occurred or were present within 5 years, except for cervical carcinoma in situ, non melanoma skin cancer and superficial bladder tumor \[ta (non invasive tumor), tis (carcinoma in situ) and T1 (tumor infiltrating basement membrane)\];

3) The patients with thyroid dysfunction after the best drug treatment;

4) Systemic anti-tumor therapy including cytotoxic therapy, signal transduction inhibitors, immunotherapy (or mitomycin C within 6 weeks prior to the trial drug treatment) was planned within 4 weeks before enrollment or during the study period. Over extended field radiotherapy was performed within 4 weeks before admission or limited field radiotherapy was performed within 2 weeks before grouping;

5) With pleural effusion or ascites, it causes respiratory syndrome (≥ CTC AE grade 2 dyspnea \[grade 2 dyspnea refers to shortness of breath with a small amount of activity; it affects instrumental activities of daily living\]);
