Exclusion criteria

1. The target disease has cerebral metastasis;

2. The medical history and complications, which may affect patients' ability to participate in the study and their safety during the study, or interfere with explanation of the study results, for example: severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, uncontrolled diabetes, uncontrolled hypertension, uncontrolled infection, active peptic ulcer, etc.;

3. Dementia, altered mental state, or any mental illness that prevents understanding or informed consent or questionnaires;

4. History of allergy or hypersensitivity to any therapeutic ingredient;

7. Physical examination or laboratory examination results are abnormal;

   1. Hematological dysfunction is defined as: i) absolute neutrophil (ANC) count <1.5 × 109 / L; ii) platelet (PLT) count: <100 × 109 / L; iii) hemoglobin (Hb) level<90g / L;
   2. Hepatic abnormalities are defined as: i) total bilirubin (TBil) levels: >1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); ii) aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels >2.5 times the ULN >5 times ULN if liver metastases are present;
