The investigator identified clinically significant electrolyte abnormalities;
Hypertension that could not be controlled by drugs before enrollment was defined as: systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg;
Poorly controlled diabetes mellitus was present before enrollment (fasting glucose concentration ≥CTCAE level 2 after formal treatment);
Had any disease or condition prior to enrollment that affected drug absorption, or the patient could not take fruquintinib orally;
Gastrointestinal diseases such as active ulcer of stomach and duodenum, ulcerative colitis, or active bleeding of unresectosed tumors, or other conditions that may cause gastrointestinal bleeding or perforation as determined by researchers before enrollment;
Patients with evidence or history of significant bleeding tendency within 3 months prior to enrollment (bleeding within 3 months >30 mL, hematemesis, stool, stool blood), hemoptysis (within 4 weeks >5 mL of fresh blood) or had a thromboembolic event (including stroke events and/or transient ischemic attacks) within 12 months;
