If failed in preoperative chemotherapy / chemoradiotherapy or disease progressed in 24 weeks after esophagectomy, the preoperative chemotherapy/ chemoradiotherapy is regard as first-line chemotherapy. B. If failed in definitive chemoradiotherapy or disease progressed in 24 weeks after definitive chemoradiotherapy, the definitive chemoradiotherapy is regard as first-line chemotherapy; C.

Fecal occult blood (-); Urine test: protein\<(++) or \<1.0g per 24 hours.
  • Without bleeding and thrombosis disease.
  • With normal coagulation function: APTT, PT and INR, each ≤ 1.5 ULN
  • With normal electrocardiogram results and no history of congestive heart failure.
  • Female subjects of child-bearing potential must agree to use contraceptive measures starting 1 week before the administration of the first dose of apatinib until 8 weeks after discontinuing study drug. Male subjects must agree to use contraceptive measures during the study and 8 weeks after last dose of study drug.

If fecal occult blood is still (+) or (+/-),endoscopy is required and if there are ulcer or other diseases with bleeding risk in the opinion of the investigators. (4) Primary tumour lesion is of deep ulcer and in the opinion of the investigators may place the patient at risk of fetal bleeding or GI perforation.
