Brief Summary

Patients with unresectable or metastatic gastric or esophageal cancer, with first-line treatment applied are to be recruited in the study.

8. Appropriate bone marrow reserve, as shown in the blood count of the subject within 7 days before enrollment: hemoglobin ≥90g / L; ANC ≥1.5 × 109 / L; platelet ≥90 × 109 / L (patients have not received blood transfusion or growth factor support within 2 weeks prior blood collection).

9. Appropriate liver function is shown to meet all of the following requirements:

1. Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (Gilbert syndrome patients can be included if the total bilirubin is <3 x ULN, and those with biliary obstruction allow biliary drainage);

10. Appropriate renal function demonstrated by all of the following requirements:

1. Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN and creatinine clearance ≥ 50ml/min (using Cockcroft-Gault formula);

11. INR or prothrombin time (PT) ≤ 1.5 x ULN, APTT ≤ 1.5 x ULN; no history of anticoagulant treatment; investigator judges no high coagulation risk.

12. All acute toxic effects of previous anti-cancer treatment or surgery were all relieved by NCI-CTCAE version 5.0 ≤ 1 (except for hair loss or other toxic effects that the investigator judges to have no risk to the patient's safety).

13. Fertile women must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 7 days before enrollment, and must agree to use effective contraception during the study period and within 6 months after the end of the study period; non-sterile men must agree to use efficient contraception during the study period and within 6 months after the study was completed. Patient agrees to avoid sperm donation during the same time period.

14. Have the ability to act autonomously, have the ability to swallow pills, and have no gastrointestinal diseases that affect oral drug absorption.

15. Agree to provide hematology and histology samples.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Have undifferentiated or other histological types of gastric or esophageal cancer; evidence of tumor invasion of major blood vessels (including completely adjacent, surrounding, or extending into the main vessel lumen, such as the pulmonary artery or superior vena cava) , and the researcher judges that it is not suitable for enrollment.

2. Patients with active autoimmune disease or a history of autoimmune disease but who may relapse.

Note: Patients with the following diseases are not excluded and can be entered for further screening:

19. Live vaccinations were given within 4 weeks before randomization (Note: seasonal influenza vaccines are usually inactivated vaccines and are allowed. Vaccines used in the nasal cavity are live vaccines and are not allowed).
