Brief summary: To explore the efficacy and safety of irinotecan liposome injection combined with 5-FU/LV in the treatment of advanced neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC)

Detailed description: 1. Irinotecan hydrochloride liposome injection combined with 5-FU/LV therapy in a 2-week treatment cycle ,until disease progresses or intolerable toxicity

Drug: Liposome irinotecan(50-70mg/m\^2) will be administered by intravenous infusion on day 1 in a 2-week treatment cycle

Drug: LV (400mg/m\^2) will be administered by intravenous infusion on day 1 in a 2-week treatment cycle

Drug: 5-FU(2400mg/m\^2) will be administered by continuous infusion for 46 hours on day 1 in a 2-week treatment cycle
