10. Males, women of childbearing potential (postmenopausal women who must have been postmenopausal for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential) and their partners voluntarily use contraception deemed effective by the investigator during treatment and for at least three months after the last dose of study drug.

11. Able to understand and voluntarily sign a written informed consent form, which must be signed prior to the performance of any trial-specified study procedures.

12. Patients must be voluntary and able to complete study procedures and follow-up examinations.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Cytotoxic chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery (except minor surgery), anticancer therapy with hormone therapy (except hormone for hypothyroidism or estrogen replacement therapy (ERT)), or any clinical study treatment within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug; or clinically significant tumor embolism or tumor lysis syndrome (TLS).

2. Immunotherapy, biologic therapy or anti-TNFa therapy within 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) prior to receiving the first dose of study drug.

3. Patients who have received targeted therapy within 28 days prior to first dose of study drug.

4. Prior treatment with anti PD-1, anti PD-L1, or anti PD-L2 agents (Phase II CRC cohort only).

5. Patients have an immunodeficiency diagnosis or are receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (daily dose of more than 10 mg prednisone equivalent) or any form of immunosuppressive therapy 7 days prior to the first dose of trial treatment.

6. Patients have any active autoimmune disease or a history of autoimmune disease (such as interstitial pneumonia, uveitis, enteritis, hepatitis, hypophysitis, vasculitis, myocarditis, nephritis, hyperthyroidism, decreased thyroid function (can be included if hormone replacement therapy is effective); patients with vitiligo or asthma that has been completely relieved in childhood and does not require any intervention after adulthood can be included, and patients with asthma requiring bronchodilators for medical intervention cannot be included.

7. Patient has an active infection or unexplained fever > 38.5。C within 2 weeks prior to the first dose (subjects may be enrolled due to tumor generated fever as judged by the investigator).

8. Any evidence of a past history of interstitial lung disease, drug-induced interstitial lung disease, radiation pneumonitis requiring steroids, or clinically active interstitial lung disease.

9. Hepatic decompensation.

10. Evidence of any severe or uncontrolled systemic disease; various chronic active infections such as hepatitis B (evidence of hepatitis activity such as HBV-DNA ≥ 104 copies/mL or 2000 IU/mL), hepatitis C, and HIV.

11. Any of the following cardiac criteria: Mean QTc> 470 msec at rest during screening; Any clinically important abnormality in rhythm, conduction, or morphology of the resting electrocardiogram (ECG) (e.g., complete left bundle branch block, third degree heart block, second degree heart block); Congenital long QT syndrome or family history of long QT syndrome.

12. Uncontrolled hypertension (requiring 2 or more medications to control blood pressure); Unstable cardiac pain; Angina pectoris within 3 months of study entry; Congestive heart failure (NYHA class II or higher); Previous myocardial infarction (NSTEMI or STEMI) within 6 months of study entry; Serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medical attention; Serious hepatic, renal, gastrointestinal, or metabolic disease.

13. History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to APG-1387 or toripalimab or their constituents.

14. Have received a live vaccine within 28 days prior to the first dose of investigational product. Live vaccines include but are not limited to the following: measles, mumps, rubella, varicella/zoster (chicken pox), yellow fever, rabies, Bacille Calmette-Guérin vaccine (BCG) and typhoid. Injectable seasonal influenza vaccines are usually inactivated viral vaccines and are therefore allowed; however, intranasal influenza vaccines (e.g., FluMist) are live attenuated vaccines and are not allowed.

15. Patients who have not sufficiently recovered after surgical treatment as judged by the investigator. Patients with major surgery within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug and minor surgery within 7 days prior to the start of the study.

16. Pregnant or lactating female patients.

17. The subject has other factors that may cause the subject to be forced to terminate the study, such as suffering from other serious diseases (including mental illness) requiring concomitant treatment, severe abnormalities in laboratory tests, family or social factors, conditions that may affect the safety of the subject or the collection of trial data, etc.
