Adequate hepatic, renal, heart, and hematologic functions (hemoglobin ≥90g/L, platelets ≥ 80×10^9/L, neutrophils ≥ 1.5×10^9/L, total bilirubin within 1.5×the upper limit of normal(ULN), and b) ALT and AST≤2.5×the ULN (If liver metastases, serum transaminase≤5×the ULN), serum creatine ≤ 1.25 x ULN, creatinine clearance rate > 45ml/min;

9. For women of child-bearing age, the pregnancy test results (serum or urine) within 7 days before enrolment must be negative. They will take appropriate methods for contraception during the study until the 8th week post the last administration of study drug. For men (previous surgical sterilization accepted), will take appropriate methods for contraception during the study until the 8th week post the last administration of study drug;

10. Signed and dated informed consent.Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedure.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with non-small cell lung cancer;

2. Imaging (CT or MRI) results indicate that the existence of central tumors locally invading the large vessel could be detected, or apparent pulmonary cavity or necrotizing tumors;

3. Patients with clinical symptoms of brain metastases or meningeal metastasis;

4. Patients with poor-controlled arterial hypertension (systolic pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic pressure ≥ 90 mm Hg) despite standard medical management;

5. Suffered from grade II or above myocardial ischemia or myocardial infarction, uncontrolled arrhythmias (including QT interval male ≥ 450 ms, female ≥ 470 ms). Grade III-IV cardiac insufficiency according to New York Heart Association (NYHA) criteria or echocardiography check: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)<50%;

6. Coagulant function abnormality (INR > 1.5 or prothrombin time (PT) > ULN + 4 seconds or APTT ULN > 1.5), with bleeding tendency or is treated with thrombolysis and anticoagulation;

7. Patients whose routine urine tests indicate that urine protein ≥ ++ or verifies that the 24-h urine protein quantitation ≥ 1.0 g;

8. Patients who received major surgical operations or experienced severe traumatic injuries, bone fracture, or ulcers within 4 weeks before screening;

9. Patients who had obvious hemoptysis within 2 months before screening, or experienced daily hemoptysis with a volume more than half a tea spoon (2.5ml) or above; Patients who experienced bleeding symptoms of clinical significance , or with confirmed bleeding tendency such as hemorrhage of digestive tract, hemorrhagic gastric ulcer, baseline occult blood in stool ++ and above, or vasculitis, etc;

10. Patients who manifested arterial/venous thrombus events, e.g.cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack), deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, etc., within 12 months before screening;

11. Allergic to any ingredients of Apatinib;

12. Evidence of significant medical illness that in the investigator's judgment will substantially increase the risk associated with the subject's participation in and completion of the study.
