What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Trifluridine/Tipiracil (TAS-102) combined with ApatinibDrug
TAS-102: 35 mg/m2/dose, taken orally within 1 hour after breakfast and dinner, twice daily, on days 1-5 of each cycle, followed by a 9-day drug-free interval, with 28 days constituting one cycle.
Apatinib: 500 mg/dose, once daily, administered continuously for 5 days followed by a 2-day break, with 28 days as one cycle. Imaging evaluation should be performed every 2-3 cycles until disease progression or intolerance occurs.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Objective Response Rate,ORR
Measured: Perform imaging evaluation At the end of Cycle 2 or Cycle3 (each cycle is 28 days).
