11. Labo data (within 14 days from registration day)
WBC more than 3,000/mm3
Neutrophil more than 1,500/mm3
Hb more than 9.0 g/dL
Platelet more than 10x104 / mm3
T-bil less than 1.5 mg/dL
AST and ALT less than 100 IU/L (in cases with liver metastases less than 200 IU/L)
CRE less than 1.5 mg/dL, or CCR more than 40 mL/min
PT (INR) less than 1.5
SpO2(room air) more than 92% , or PaO2 more than 60
Patients with a urinary protein level of less than 1+. In those with a level of more than 2+, 24-hour urine collection should be performed, and they are regarded as eligible if the 24-hour protein level is less than 1,000 mg.
12. HBs antigen-negative patients (HBs antibody- and/or HBc antibody-positive patients are regarded as eligible if they are negative for HBV-DNA).
(Pretreatment)
13. No history of cytotoxic chemotherapies and RAM. In patients with EGFR-mutations (Del-19/L858R) or ALK-fusions, treatment with EGFR/ALK-TKIs are completed as prior therapies (regardless of the reasons for completion). In patients receiving prior immune-checkpoint inhibitors, progressive disease are confirmed or they are terminated after intolerable adverse events.
14. One regimen of postoperative chemotherapy is acceptable. In this case; The interval from the final day of administration during postoperative chemotherapy is longer than 24 weeks. For regimens with platinum preparations, the change of platinum preparations should be regarded as 1 regimen. Concerning patients treated by postoperative chemotherapy with EGFR/ALK-TKIs in whom relapse is confirmed 31 days or more after the final day of administration, additional EGFR/ALK-TKI therapy is completed. With respect to relapse within 30 days in patients treated by postoperative chemotherapy with EGFR/ALK-TKIs, treatment with EGFR/ALK-TKIs is regarded as being completed.
15. Surgery under general anesthesia has not been performed within 28 days before registration.
No subcutaneous vein access instrument has been inserted within 7 days before registration.
In patients who underwent surgery during the past 2 months, postoperative hemorrhage, complications, and wound complications are absent.
16. The interval from the completion of radiotherapy for metastatic foci (including gamma-knife therapy for metastatic foci of the brain) is 1 week (Day 8 or later, regarding the day of completion as Day 1).
17. In patients receiving thoracic radiation therapy, measurable lesions exist in extra-radiation field after 24 weeks since completion of radiation.
18. There is no history of thoracic radiotherapy or chemotherapy for other types of cancer. However, surgery and hormonal therapy for other types of cancer are acceptable (oral anticancer drug therapy, as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for other ty

Exclusion Criteria

(Treatment for other diseases)
12. Those receiving the continuous systemic (oral or intravenous) administration of steroids or other immunosuppressive agents
13. Those receiving anticoagulant therapy with Warfarin, low-molecular-weight heparin, or analogues. : Patients receiving preventive low-dose anticoagulant therapy may be registered if they meet the coagulation parameters described in selection criteria (INR: less than 1.5).
