Brief summary: This is a phase I, single center (West China Hospital, Sichuan University) study aimed at investigating the safety and efficacy of NMN supplements combined with chemotherapy and radiation therapy for second-line and above treatment of advanced NSCLC.

Detailed description: This study is a prospective, phase I, dose exploration (NMN dose escalation) clinical trial of radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy for advanced non-small cell carcinoma. The aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NAD supplementation combined with radiotherapy and immunotherapy (+/- chemotherapy) in 20 patients with advanced non-small cell carcinoma who failed first-line treatment.The patient received PD-1 inhibitor combined with radiation therapy for the primary lesion and/or metastatic site (excluding intracranial lesions), and orally took NAD+supplement NMN. Regular monitoring indicators include ORR and PFS of patients' radiation therapy lesions and other observed lesions, medication safety, biomarkers, and OS.

Tolerance observation will be conducted using a 3+3 NMN dose escalation approach until dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is observed in at least 2 out of 3-6 subjects, or tolerance observation of the study treatment will be conducted。 3 cohorts with increasing dose levels:NMN12000 GeneHarbor:150mg,Oral administration, once a day;Second dose group: NMN12000 GeneHarbor:150mg,Oral administration, twice a day;Third dose group: NMN12000 GeneHarbor:150mg,Oral administration,3 times a day.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. According to the 8th edition TNM staging of lung cancer by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer and the Joint Committee on Cancer Classification in the United States, metastatic (stage IV) non-small cell lung cancer with histological or cytological evidence that cannot be treated surgically and cannot receive curative concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and has received at least first-line treatment.
2. At least 2 measurable target lesions (RECIST v1.1 standard), intracranial lesions are not included as radiation therapy lesions or observation lesions due to immune exemption, liver lesions are not included as observation lesions due to immune exemption, and bone lesions are not included as observation lesions due to non measurability. For a lesion that has previously received radiotherapy, only when there is clear disease progression after radiotherapy can it be considered a target lesion. The patient plans to undergo radiotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitors, or is currently receiving PD-1 inhibitor treatment and has undergone or plans to undergo radiotherapy within one month from the date of enrollment.
3. Agree to provide tumor tissue specimens, which can be previously archived or freshly obtained, for the detection of biomarkers.
4. Voluntarily sign a written informed consent form. The informed consent form must be signed before any protocol related procedures (which are not part of the subject's routine medical care) are carried out. The subject signs the informed consent form and signs the date. Participants must be willing and able to comply with the scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other requirements of the study. At the time of signing the informed consent form, both males and females are eligible for age between 18 and 75 years old.
5. The physical fitness score of the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) in the United States is 0 or 1, with an expected survival period of ≥ 3 months.
6. Can provide confirmation of EGFR through tissue based testing, ALK and ROS1 are both reported as wild-type. For non squamous NSCLC patients who have not been confirmed to have wild-type EGFR and wild-type ALK, tumor samples (archived or fresh, primary or metastatic) need to be collected before enrollment for evaluation of EGFR and ALK testing (in local or central laboratories). If there is no archived tumor tissue, fresh tumor biopsy samples must be collected at baseline.
7. The laboratory test results during the screening period indicate that the subjects have good organ function (no blood components or cell growth factors are allowed to support treatment within the first 2 weeks of randomization): Hematology: i. Absolute neutrophil NEC ≥ 1.5 × 10 \^ 9/L; Ii. Platelet count ≥ 100 × 10 \^ 9/L; Iii. Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0g/dL. B Kidney: i. If the calculated creatinine clearance rate (CrCl) is ≥ 50 mL/min, the Cockcroft Gault formula will be used to calculate CrCl (Cockcroft DW, 1976) CrCL (mL/min)={(140 age) × body weight (kg) × F}/(SCr (mg/dL) × 72), where F=1 for females and F=0.85 for males; SCr=serum creatinine. Liver: i. Serum total bilirubin (TBil) ≤ 1.5 × ULN; For subjects with liver metastasis or confirmed/suspected Gilbert disease, TBil ≤ 3 × ULN ii AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 × ULN; For subjects with liver metastasis, AST and ALT ≤ 5 × ULN d coagulation function: i. International standardized ratio and activated partial thromboplastin time ≤ 1.5 × ULN (unless the subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy and coagulation parameters (PT, INR, and APTT) are within the expected range of anticoagulant therapy at screening).

Exclusion Criteria:
