Having trouble using async/await for my Application causing high cpu usage

private void loadit()  
    {  
        server = new SimpleTcpServer();  
        server.Delimiter = 0x13;  
        server.StringEncoder = Encoding.UTF8;  
        server.DataReceived += server_datarx;  
        backgroundworker1 = new BackgroundWorker();  
        backgroundWorker1.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(backgroundWorker1_DoWork);  
        INCOMING = new Thread(INCOMINGTHREAD);  
  
    }  
  
    private void backgroundWorker1_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)  
    {  
        while (true)  
        {  
            if(rxv)  
            {  
                rxv = false;  
                INCOMING = new Thread(INCOMINGTHREAD);  
                INCOMING.Start();  
            }  
            if (backgroundWorker1.CancellationPending)  
            {  
                e.Cancel = true;  
                return;  
            }  
        }  
    }

        rxv = true;  
        SetText(rxvmsg);

    this code is poorly written:

    private void backgroundWorker1_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)  
         {  
             while (true)  
             {  
                 if(rxv)  
                 {  
                     rxv = false;  
                     INCOMING = new Thread(INCOMINGTHREAD);  
                     INCOMING.Start();  
                 }  
                 if (backgroundWorker1.CancellationPending)  
                 {  
                     e.Cancel = true;  
                     return;  
                 }  
             }  
         }  
    

    if rev is false, it just a compute loop (100% thread cpu). also if canceled, it does not stop the thread it starts.
