A fixed dose of Camrelizumab 200mg will be administered intravenously (without preventive medication), and each infusion lasts 45min (no less than 30min, no more than 60min), once every two weeks; During the treatment period, 250 mg of Apatinib mesylate tablets will be taken orally daily continuously, and every 2 weeks is a treatment cycle. The treatment lasts for up to 2 years or until disease progression, death or intolerable toxicity occurred.
Apatinib mesylate tablets 500 mg will be taken orally daily continuously, every 2 weeks as a treatment cycle. Treatment lasts for up to 2 years or until disease progression, death or intolerable toxicity occurs.
