6. Liver function Child-Pugh class A (5-6 points) or better class B (≤ 7 points) (see Appendix 3);
7. ECOG score of 0 or 1 (see Appendix 1);
8. Expected survival ≥ 12 weeks;
9. At least one measurable lesion (RECIST 1.1 criteria, see Appendix 2);
10. Essentially normal function of major organs and bone marrow:

    A) Blood routine: WBC ≥ 4.0 x 109/L, neutrophils ≥ 1.5 x 109/L, platelets ≥ 100 x 109/L, hemoglobin ≥ 90 g/L; B) International normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN; C) Liver function: total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN; ALT/AST/ALP ≤ 2.5 x ULN in the absence of liver metastasis; ALT/AST/ALP ≤ 5 x ULN in the presence of liver metastasis; D) Renal function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN and creatinine clearance (CCr) 60 mL/min (see Appendix 6); E) Normal cardiac function, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50% by two-dimensional echocardiography.
11. Fully understand the study, voluntarily participate, and sign the informed consent form.
12. Male or female patients of childbearing potential voluntarily use effective contraceptive methods during the study and within 6 months after the last study drug, such as double-barrier contraceptive methods, condoms, oral or injectable contraceptives, intrauterine devices, etc. All female patients will be considered to be of childbearing potential unless they are naturally postmenopausal, have undergone artificial menopause, or have undergone sterilization (eg, hysterectomy, bilateral adnexectomy, or radiation ovarian irradiation).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Having received approved or investigational systemic anti-tumor therapy within 4 weeks before enrollment, including photodynamic therapy, chemotherapy, radical radiotherapy, ablation, local radiotherapy (palliative radiotherapy for bone metastases is allowed to be completed at least 2 weeks before study drug treatment), biological immunotherapy, targeted therapy, etc.;
2. Patients with untreated central nervous system metastases, previously treated with systemic, radical brain or meningeal metastases (radiotherapy or surgery), and those who have been confirmed to be stable by imaging for at least 1 month and have stopped systemic sex hormone therapy (dose \> 10 mg/day prednisone or other effective hormones) for more than 2 weeks without clinical symptoms can be included
3. Participated in other domestic unapproved or unmarketed drug clinical trials within 4 weeks before enrollment and received the corresponding investigational drug treatment;
4. Having received any surgical or invasive treatment or operation (except venous catheterization, puncture and drainage, etc.) within 4 weeks before the start of enrollment;
5. Clinically significant electrolyte abnormalities as judged by the investigator;
6. Patients with current hypertension uncontrolled by drugs, defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg;
7. Patients currently have any disease or condition that affects drug absorption, or patients cannot take oral surufatinib;
8. Patients with active gastric and duodenal ulcer, ulcerative colitis and other gastrointestinal diseases or unresected tumors have active bleeding, or other conditions that may cause gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation as judged by the investigator;
9. Patients with evidence or history of significant bleeding tendency within 3 months before enrollment (bleeding \> 30 mL, hematemesis, melena, hematochezia), hemoptysis (\> 5 mL of fresh blood within 4 weeks) or thromboembolic events (including stroke events and/or transient ischemic attack) within 12 months;
10. significant clinically significant cardiovascular disease, including but not limited to acute myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina pectoris, or coronary artery bypass grafting within 6 months prior to enrollment; congestive heart failure New York Heart Association (NYHA) class \> 2; ventricular arrhythmia requiring medical treatment; electrocardiogram (ECG) showed QTc interval ≥ 480 milliseconds;
11. Patients with other malignant tumors within the past 5 years, except for basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin after radical resection, or cervical carcinoma in situ;
12. Active or uncontrolled serious infection (≥ CTC AE grade 2 infection);
13. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; known history of clinically significant liver disease, including viral hepatitis \[known hepatitis B virus (HBV) carriers must rule out active HBV infection, that is, HBV DNA positive (\> 1 × 104 copies/mL or \> 2000 IU/ml); known hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and HCV RNA positive (\> 1 × 103 copies/mL), or other hepatitis, cirrhosis\];
14. Unresolved toxicities above CTCAE grade 1 due to any prior anticancer therapy, excluding alopecia, lymphopenia, and oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity ≤ grade 2;
15. Symptomatic peripheral neuropathy (CTCAE ≥ grade 2);
16. pregnant (positive pregnancy test before medication) or lactating women;
17. Any other disease, clinically significant metabolic abnormalities, physical examination abnormalities, or laboratory abnormalities that, in the judgment of the investigator, would reasonably suspect that the patient has a disease or condition that would make the use of the study drug inappropriate (eg, having seizures and requiring treatment), or would compromise the interpretation of the study results, or place the patient at high risk.
18. Urine routine showed urine protein ≥ 2 + and, and 24-hour urine protein \> 1.0g;
19. Patients who have previously received anti-VEGF/VEGFR-targeted drugs and have disease progression during treatment;
20. Taking drugs containing components of Hypericum perforatum within 3 weeks before enrollment, or taking other strong inducers or strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 within 2 weeks before enrollment;
21. According to the investigator 's judgment, the patient has other factors that may affect the study results or result in forced halfway termination of this study, such as alcoholism, drug abuse, other serious diseases (including mental illness) requiring concomitant treatment, severe laboratory abnormalities, accompanied by family or social factors, which may affect the patient' s safety.
