Exclusion Criteria:

For patient with history of asthma, complete remission of asthma in childhood without any intervention after adulthood can be included, while those asthma patients who require bronchodilators for medical intervention cannot be included.);
- The patient is using immunosuppressive agents or systemic hormonal therapy for immunosuppression purposes (dose > 10 mg/day of prednisone or other therapeutic hormones) and continues to be used within 2 weeks prior to enrollment;
- Severe allergic reactions to other monoclonal antibodies;
- Known for a history of central nervous system metastasis or hepatic encephalopathy;
- Having a history of organ transplantation;
- Patients with clinically symptomatic ascites who require puncture, drainage, or ascites drainage within 3 months, except for those who have a small amount of ascites but no clinical symptoms;
- Suffering from hypertension, and cannot be well controlled by antihypertensive drugs (systolic blood pressure ≥ 140mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg);
- Suffering heart diseases with clinical symptoms or those not well controlled, such as: (1) heart failure in NYHA class 2 or higher; (2) unstable angina; (3) myocardial infarction occurred within 1 year; (4) clinically symptomatic supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmia requiring treatment or intervention; (5) Tc > 450ms (male); QTc > 470ms (female);
- Coagulation dysfunction (INR>2.0, PT>16s), bleeding tendency or receiving thrombolysis or anticoagulant therapy, allowing prophylactic use of low-dose aspirin or low molecular heparin;
- There are significant clinically significant bleeding symptoms or clear bleeding tendency within 3 months before enrollment, such as hemoptysis of 2.5ml or more per day, gastrointestinal bleeding, esophageal varices with bleeding risk, hemorrhagic gastric ulcer or vasculitis, etc. If the fecal occult blood is positive in the baseline period, it can be watched, then gastroscope is needed for those fecal occult blood is still positive. If the gastroscope indicates severe esophageal varices, it cannot be enrolled, except for those who have undergone gastroscopy within a month or less to exclude such cases);

- The patient has active infection, unexplained fever (≥38.5 °C) within 3 days before administration, or baseline white blood cell count>15×109/L; 15 Patients with congenital or acquired immunodeficiency (such as HIV-infected patients);
16. HBV-DNA>2000 IU/ml (or 104 copies/ml); or HCV-RNA>103 copies/ml; or HBsAg+ and anti-HCV antibody positive patients; 17. The patient has had other malignant tumors in the past 3 years or at the same time (except for cured skin basal cell carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ); 18. Patients with bone metastases who had received palliative radiotherapy >4% of the bone marrow area within 4 weeks prior to participation in the study; 19. Patients have previously received other anti-PD-1 antibody therapy or other immunotherapy against PD-1/PD-L1, or have received apatinib before; 20. Inoculation of a live vaccine within less than 4 weeks prior to study or possibly during the study period; 21. Pregnant or lactating women, or women of childbearing age who are unwilling to take contraceptive measures; 22. According to the investigators, the patient has other factors that may affect the results of the study or lead to the termination of the study, such as alcohol abuse, drug abuse, other serious diseases (including mental illness) requiring combined treatment, and serious laboratory tests, abnormalities, accompanied by factors such as family or society, which may affect the safety of enrolled patients.
