Detailed Description

This is an open-label, parallel, multicentre, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of irinotecan liposome injection. Eligible patients will be divided into two cohorts according to the criteria for the corresponding cohort. The patients in cohort 1 will receive irinotecan liposome injection combined with 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and Leucovorin (LV). The patients in cohort 2 will receive irinotecan liposome injection combined with a PD-1 inhibitor, 5-Fluorouracil and Leucovorin.
