Introduction: Immunotherapy in combination with chemotherapy have been recommended as the first-line treatment of driver-negative advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the efficacy is worse in NSCLC patients with bone metastases due to the immunosuppressive microenvironment. Studies have shown that not only the nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) inhibitors but also Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) play a significant role in improving the tumor immune microenvironment. Therefore, narlumosbart,a monoclonal antibody (mAb) targeting RANKL,in combination with SBRT may have synergistic effects and improve efficacy of immunotherapy and chemotherapy in driver-negative advanced NSCLC patients with bone metastases. Methods: This single-arm, single-center phase II clinical trial will enroll NSCLC patients with bone metastases who have not received any systemic therapy. Patients will receive narlumosbart and bone target lesion SBRT in combination with first-line treatment immunotherapy and chemotherapy after screening eligible subjects. Narlumosbart, 120mg/time, subcutaneous injection, is administered every 4 weeks. For the treatment of SBRT for bone metastases, the dose of 24Gy/3F is used for spinal metastases, and 30Gy/5F or 35Gy/5F is used for non-spinal lesions. Chemotherapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy was used in accordance with the guidelines. The primary endpoint is to assess the objective response rate of NSCLC patients with bone metastases from narlumosbart combined with SBRT and first-line chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, overall survival and safety. Sample size calculation used the Simon Two-Stage method. 9 patients will be enrolled in the first stage. If ≥ 2 patients achieve CR/PR, the second stage of enrollment will be performed. If only 2 patients \< achieve CR/PR, the trial will be terminated. In the second phase, 15 patients will be enrolled. 27 subjects will be enrolled in this project, considering the dropout rate of 10%.

Time frame: 2 years
Overall survival,OS
The time from enrollment to death from any cause. Patients who were still alive at the time of analysis will have the date of their last contact as the cutoff date.

Progression free survival, PFS
The time from enrollment to disease progression or death from any cause. Patients who were still alive at the time of analysis will have the date of their last contact as the cutoff date.

Adverse Events, AEs
AEs are crucial for assessing the safety profile of treatments in clinical trials and medical practice. The minimum Value is 0 ,indicating no occurrence of the adverse event. The maximum varies depending on the grading system used (e.g., Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, CTCAE, which ranges from 1 to 5, with 5 indicating the most severe event, such as death.Higher scores indicate more severe adverse events. For example, in the CTCAE grading system: Grade 1: Mild; Grade 2: Moderate; Grade 3: Severe; Grade 4: Life-threatening; Grade 5: Death.

Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form, BPI-SF
Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form, BPI-SF is a widely used, self-administered questionnaire designed to assess the severity and impact of pain. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 10. Higher scores indicate more severe pain or greater.Specifically, the BPI-SF includes assessments of pain intensity (e.g., worst pain, least pain, pain right now) and pain interference (e.g., interference with general activity, mood, walking ability, normal work, relations with other people, sleep, and enjoyment of life). Each item is rated on a scale from 0 (no pain or no interference) to 10 (worst possible pain or complete interference).
Time frame: 2 years
Skeletal-related event, SRE
Skeletal-related events (SREs) are complications that occur due to bone instability related to bone metastases or other bone-related diseases. The minimum value is 0, indicating no occurrence of skeletal-related events. The maximum value is not fixed, as the number and severity of SREs vary among individuals. A higher number and greater severity of SREs indicate more severe bone-related complications and worse clinical outcomes for the patient.

EORTC QLQ BM22
European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire - Bone Metastases Module (EORTC QLQ-BM22) is a 22-item questionnaire specifically designed to assess the quality of life (QoL) in patients with bone metastases.Each item in the EORTC QLQ-BM22 is scored on a scale from 1 to 4, with the final scores being transformed into a standardized scale ranging from 0 to 100.For symptom scales, high score means worse outcomes. For function scales and psychosocial aspects, high score means better outcomes better functional ability and psychosocial well-being.
