Brief summary: This is a prospective, open-label, multicenter, single arm phase Ⅰb/Ⅱ clinical study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib combined with toripalimab and SOX regimen in the first-line treatment of unresectable advanced metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.

Detailed description: At present, the first-line standard treatment of metastatic gastric cancer is still doublet or triplet chemotherapy of fluorouracil combined with platinum or paclitaxel. In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have emerged in advanced gastric cancer with their unique mechanism of action. PD-1 monoclonal antibody has been explored in multiple combination schemes in the first-line treatment of advanced gastric cancer. This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of an antiangiogenetic TKI, fruquintinib combined with an ICI, toripalimab and the standard doublet SOX regimen in the first-line treatment of unresectable advanced metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Pathologically determined unresectable advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma;
* 18-75 years old (including 18 and 75 years old);
* No previous anti-tumor treatment for metastatic diseases;
* HER2 negative;
* Eastern Cooperation Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1;
* Life expectancy ≥ 3 months;
* At least one measurable lesion according to RECIST version 1.1;

* Women of childbearing age need to take effective contraceptive measures.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Previous treatment with vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors or previous use of immune checkpoint inhibitors;
* Other malignant tumors in the past 5 years, except for skin basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma after radical surgery, or cervical carcinoma in situ;

* Patients with autoimmune diseases or history of autoimmune diseases within 4 weeks before enrollment;
* Previously received allogeneic bone marrow transplantation or organ transplantation;
* Uncontrolled malignant ascites;
* Participated in other unapproved or unlisted drug clinical trials in China within 4 weeks before enrollment, and received corresponding experimental drug treatment;
* Cardiovascular disease, including unstable angina or myocardial infarction, occurred within 6 months before the start of study treatment;
* Subjects allergic to the study drug or any of its adjuvants;
* International normalized ratio (INR) \> 1.5 or partially activated prothrombin time (APTT) \> 1.5 × ULN；
* The researchers judged clinically significant electrolyte abnormalities;
* At present, the patient has hypertension that cannot be controlled by drugs, which is specified as: systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and / or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg;
* Patients currently have poorly controlled diabetes (fasting glucose level is greater than CTCAE grade 2 after regular treatment);
* Patients with dysphagia, active peptic ulcer, intestinal obstruction, active gastrointestinal bleeding, peptic perforation, malabsorption syndrome or uncontrolled intestinal inflammatory diseases;
* Any disease or state affecting drug absorption before enrollment, or the patient cannot take oral medication;
* Patients with obvious evidence of bleeding tendency or medical history within 3 months before enrollment, hemoptysis or thromboembolism within 12 months;
* Cardiovascular diseases with significant clinical significance, including but not limited to acute myocardial infarction, severe / unstable angina pectoris or coronary artery bypass grafting within 6 months before enrollment;
* Ventricular arrhythmia requiring drug treatment;
* Congestive heart failure ≤New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 2;
* LVEF \< 50%;
* Active or uncontrolled severe infection ≥ grade 2 according to National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity (NCI-CTC) criteria;
* With positive urine protein and 24-hour urinary protein content\>1g;
* Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; known history of clinically significant liver disease, including viral hepatitis;
* Pregnant (positive pregnancy test before medication) or lactating women;
* Complications require long-term immunosuppressive treatment, or systemic or local use of immunosuppressive corticosteroids (\> 10mg / day prednisone or other therapeutic hormones);
* By judgment of the investigator, there are concomitant diseases that seriously endanger the safety of the patient or affect the completion of the study.
