Must provide tumor tissue sample not previously subjected to radiotherapy. 7. Adequate organ function. 8. Subjects of childbearing potential must use effective contraception during the study and for 180 days after the last dose. Exclusion Criteria: 1.

Any severe or uncontrolled systemic disease. 12. Prior or planned allogeneic tissue/solid organ transplantation. 13. Known hypersensitivity to any active ingredient or excipient of the study drugs. 14. Evidence of active infection including hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). 15. Anti-infective therapy within 2 weeks before randomization. 16. Stroke or transient ischemic attack within 6 months before enrollment. 17. Uncontrolled or poorly controlled cardiac disease. 18. Deep or intraluminal bleeding requiring interventional/surgical hemostasis or blood transfusion within 3 months, or current history of coagulopathy. 19. Pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis within 3 months. 20. History of or current interstitial lung disease, severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, severe pulmonary insufficiency, bronchospasm, etc. 21. Received live vaccine within 30 days before first study dose. 22. History of other primary malignancy. 23. Positive serum pregnancy test or breastfeeding female. 24. Contraindications to study drugs (pucotenlimab and/or becotatug vedotin) or their excipients; severe hypersensitivity (Grade ≥3) to radiotherapy, cisplatin or its analogues. 25. Any condition that the investigator considers unsuitable for participation in the trial. 26. Grade ≥2 hearing impairment per CTCAE v6.0.
