• •Patients with imaging showing tumor invasion of vital perivascular tissue or whose tumor is likely to invade vital blood vessels during subsequent study and cause fatal bleeding as judged by the investigator;
• •Patients with any signs or history of bleeding diathesis, regardless of severity;
• •patients with any bleeding or hemorrhage event ≥ CTCAE Grade 2 within 4 weeks before enrollment, presence of unhealed wounds, ulcers, or fractures;
• •Abnormalities in major organ functions:
• •Abnormal blood routine examination (received blood transfusion or blood products, or used G-CSF and other hematopoietic growth factors for correction within 14 days):
• •1. Hemoglobin (HB) \< 90g/L;
• •2. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \< 1.5 × 109/L;
• •3. Platelets (PLT) \< 100 × 109/L;

• •2. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \> 2.5 × ULN;
• •3. Serum creatinine (Cr) \> 1.5 × ULN or creatinine clearance rate (CCr) \< 60ml/min; ③ Abnormal Doppler ultrasound assessment: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< normal lower limit (60%);
• •* Abnormal thyroid function: TSH \> upper limit of normal (ULN) with abnormal T3 and T4 levels;
• •* Renal insufficiency: Urine routine test indicating urine protein ≥ ++, or confirmed 24-hour urine protein ≥ 1.0g;
• •* Grade I or higher myocardial ischemia or myocardial infarction, arrhythmia (including QTc ≥ 480ms), and ≥ Grade 2 congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification) within 6 months before enrollment;
• •* Diagnosed with other malignancies within 3 years before enrollment;
• •* Patients with any severe and/or uncontrolled diseases, including:
• •<!-- -->
• •1. Patients with uncontrolled blood pressure (systolic blood pressure ≥ 150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg); Grade I or higher myocardial ischemia or myocardial infarction, arrhythmia (including QT interval ≥ 430ms), and Grade I cardiac insufficiency (NYHA classification);
• •2. Active or uncontrolled severe infections;
• •3. Diseases such as cirrhosis, decompensated liver disease, active hepatitis HBV or HCV;
• •4. Poorly controlled diabetes (fasting blood glucose (FBG) \> 10mmol/L);
• •5. Urine routine test indicating urine protein ≥ 2+, and confirmed 24-hour urine protein \> 1.0g;
• •\- Presence of long-term unhealed wounds or fractures;
• •\- Pulmonary hemorrhage graded \> 1 by NCI CTC AE V4.0 within 4 weeks before enrollment; hemorrhage in other locations graded \> 2 by NCI CTC AE V4.0 within 4 weeks before enrollment; patients with a tendency to bleed (such as active peptic ulcer) or receiving thrombolytic or anticoagulant therapy such as warfarin, heparin, or similar drugs;
• •\- History of gastrointestinal perforation and/or fistula within 6 months before selected treatment; or history of arterial/venous thrombotic events such as cerebrovascular accidents (including transient ischemic attacks), deep venous thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism;
• •\- Imaging showing tumor invasion of vital blood vessels or patients whose tumor is likely to invade vital blood vessels and cause fatal bleeding during subsequent study as judged by the investigator;
• •\- Clinically significant ascites, including any ascites detectable by physical examination, ascites that has been treated or still requires treatment, and patients with only a small amount of ascites shown by imaging but asymptomatic are eligible;
• •\- Uncontrolled metabolic disorders or other non-malignant tumor organ or systemic diseases or secondary reactions to cancer that can lead to high medical risks and/or uncertainty in survival evaluation;
• •\- Participated in other anti-cancer drug clinical trials within 4 weeks before enrollment;
• •* Patients with a history of psychotropic drug abuse who cannot quit or have mental disorders;
• •* Any accompanying diseases or other conditions that the investigator judges as seriously endangering the safety of the patient, potentially confusing the study results, or affecting the patient's completion of this study.
