Major surgery or trauma within 6 weeks with incomplete recovery (tissue biopsy for diagnostic purposes and procedures such as peripherally inserted central catheter [PICC] placement or port-a-cath implantation are allowed). Requirement for continuous high-dose systemic corticosteroids (>10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent) or other systemic immunosuppressants (including but not limited to cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, methotrexate, thalidomide, tacrolimus, cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil, antithymocyte globulin, anti-tumor necrosis factor drugs), and the need for continued treatment after enrollment. [Note]: Topical, ocular, intra-articular, intranasal, and inhaled corticosteroids are allowed.
• History of severe infection within 90 days, such as severe pneumonia requiring hospitalization, bacteremia, infectious complications, etc.; active tuberculosis, patients with positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg+) and/or positive hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb+) require hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (HBV DNA) testing; if HBV DNA copy number is \<1000 cps/mL or below the lower limit of detection at the research center, they may participate in the study and use anti-HBV drugs as prescribed, patients with positive hepatitis C virus antibody (HCV Ab+) require HCV RNA testing. HCV RNA-negative (defined as below the lower limit of detection at the research center) may participate in the study; human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (anti-HIV positive).
• Receipt of first-line or second-line anti-cancer drug treatment within 4 weeks prior to the first dose; receipt of systemic treatment with herbs or immunomodulatory drugs (including thymosin, interferon, interleukin, excluding local use for pleural effusion control) with anti-cancer indications within 2 weeks prior to the first dose.
• Clinically significant cardiovascular disease, including but not limited to:

Diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within 1 month prior to the first dose of the study drug. Clinically insignificant thrombosis, such as non-obstructive biliary tract-related clots, is not an exclusion criterion. Any history of myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina, NYHA class 2 or higher heart failure, or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 50% on echocardiography, stroke, transient ischemic attack, coronary or peripheral artery bypass surgery, or any acute coronary syndrome, clinically significant supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmias, and symptomatic congestive heart failure within 6 months prior to the first dose of the study drug. Uncontrolled moderate-to-severe hypertension (SBP > 180 mmHg or DBP > 100 mmHg). Poorly controlled arrhythmias (including QTcF interval ≥ 470 ms for females); abnormal corrected QT interval (QTcF) on electrocardiogram (ECG) at rest during screening, with QTcF ≥ 470 ms for females on average of three ECGs taken at least 5 minutes apart.
