White blood cell count (WBC) = 3.0 × 10?/L b. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) = 1.5 × 10?/L c. Platelet count (PLT) = 100 × 10?/L. 7) Normal liver kidney and cardiac function test results within 1 week before enrollment (based on the normal ranges of each study centers laboratory): a. Total bilirubin (TBIL) = 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) b. Alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase (ALT/AST) = 2.5 × ULN (= 5 × ULN for patients with liver metastases) c. Serum creatinine = 1.5 × ULN or creatinine clearance (Ccr) = 60 mL/min d. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) = 55% e. QTcF (Fridericia correction) = 470 ms.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1) Patients with visceral crisis. 2) Patients who have difficulty swallowing chronic diarrhea or intestinal obstruction or have multiple factors affecting drug administration and absorption. 3) Participation in another drug clinical trial within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. 4) History of other malignancies within the past 5 years except for cured carcinoma in situ of the cervix basal cell carcinoma of the skin or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. 5) Known hypersensitivity to any component of the study drugs. 6) History of immunodeficiency including HIV-positive status HCV infection or other acquired/congenital immunodeficiency diseases or history of organ transplantation. 7) Severe cardiac disease or conditions including but not limited to: History of heart failure or systolic dysfunction (LVEF 100 bpm significant ventricular arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia or high-grade atrioventricular block [i.e. Mobitz II second-degree or third-degree AV block]); Angina requiring anti-anginal medication; Clinically significant valvular heart disease; ECG evidence of transmural myocardial infarction; Poorly controlled hypertension (systolic BP > 180 mmHg and/or diastolic BP > 100 mmHg). 8) Pregnant or lactating women or women of childbearing potential with a positive baseline pregnancy test. 9) Any concomitant illness that in the investigators judgment seriously endangers patient safety or compromises study completion. 10) History of significant neurological or psychiatric disorders including epilepsy or dementia. 11) Any other condition that in the investigators opinion makes the patient unsuitable for the study including interfering comorbidities or circumstances or any severe medical condition that may jeopardize patient safety (e.g. uncontrolled cardiac disease hypertension active or uncontrolled infections).
