Brief summary: This is an open-label, multicenter study designed to assess the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy and pharmacokinetics of Metatinib Tromethamine tablet in patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer,or con squamous NSCLC. Patients receive Metatinib orally 200mg once daily (QD) or 100mg twice daily (BID) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurred. The study will determine whether MET gene mutation, amplification, as well as MET protein overexpression in tumor tissue correlate with treatment efficacy and clinical outcome. The potential PD biomarker for Metatinib will also be explored.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer or colorectal cancer who progress after second-line therapy or the above treatment protocol, or patients with advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma who progress after first-line chemotherapy, interventional therapy or targeted therapy shall be verified by histology or cytology; or patients with advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer who cannot be operated or fail to first-line therapy shall be verified by histology or cytology;
