As we say i am using a BackgroundWorker thread in a winforms and try to add item in DoWork method. So, for this situation we use code similar like this. it is working:

  private void backgroundWorker1_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
    {
        var test = new ListViewItem("item");
        backgroundWorker1.ReportProgress(0, test);
     }
  private void backgroundWorker1_ProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        listView1.Items.Add((ListViewItem)e.UserState);
    }

or

// avoid exception 'Cross thread exception'  if we using this


ListViewItem _item = new ListViewItem();
     if (listView1.InvokeRequired)
                    listView1.Invoke(new MethodInvoker(delegate
                    {
                       listView1.Items.Add(_item);           
                    }));
                else
          listView1.Items.Add(_item);
