Patients must have progressed after 1 or 2 prior chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease, and consistent with the following treatment failure definition: progress in the first-line or second-line regimen treatment, or follow-up disease progression less than 3 months after completion of their last dose
  6. At least one extracranial measurable disease according to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumor (RECIST 1.1)
  7. Radiation therapy within 4 weeks prior to enrollment
  8. All patients enrolled are required to have adequate hematologic, hepatic, and renal function
  9. Be able to understand the study procedures and sign informed consent

  9. Inability to swallow, gastrointestinal resection, chronic diarrhea and obstruction of the intestine, various factors which affect drug use and absorption
  10. Coagulation disorders (PT > 16 s, APTT > 43 s, TT > 21 s, Fbg \< 2g / L) Being treated with thrombolytic or anticoagulant therapy, with bleeding tendency or definite gastrointestinal bleeding concerns (eg: local active ulcer lesions, fecal occult blood + + or above)
  11. Artery or venous thrombosis occurred within 6 months before the study begins, such as cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack), deep vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism, etc.
