Subjects with previous adjuvant/neo-adjuvant therapy completed more than 6 months can be enrolled. Anti-tumor traditional Chinese medicine is forbidden within 2 weeks before the first cycle chemotherapy. Patients are allowed to receive palliative radiotherapy (primary tumor or metastasis), but lesions in radiation field cannot be defined as target lesions for assessing objective response, and radiotherapy-related adverse reactions must be restored to at least grade 1；

5. Expected survival time ≥ 3 months;

6. Eastern Cooperative Group (ECOG) performance status score 0 or 1;

7. Weight ≥40kg, or BMI>18;

8. 1 measurable lesions at least should be detected by CT/MRI examination in accordance with the RECIST(Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors）1.1;

9. All acute toxic events (excluding hair loss, fatigue and hearing loss) caused by previous anti-tumor treatments or surgery are alleviated to grade 0-1 (according to NCI CTCAE version 5.0) or to the level specified by the inclusion/exclusion criteria of this study；

10. The main organ function of cases should be normal, and meet the following criteria:

11. Females of childbearing potential (FOCBP), who are not surgically sterile or postmenopausal, must conduct pregnancy test (serum or urine) within 7 days before enrollment, and the results are negative, and willing to use appropriate contraception during the study period until at least 3 months after the last administration of the test drugs.
