Exclusion Criteria:

1.

4. Previous treatment interruption due to severe and/or life-threatening immune-related toxicity;
5. NCI-CTCAE v5.0 grade of adverse events caused by previous antineoplastic therapy did not recover to ≤1 before enrollment (except alopecia or antineoplastic therapy-induced tolerable events according to investigator's opinion);

Have received or are receiving any of the following: a) being treated with an immunosuppressive drug or systemic hormone for immunosuppression (at a dose of \>10 mg/ day of prednisone or equivalent) within 2 weeks before the first dose of the study drug; Use of inhaled or topical steroids and replacement adrenocortical hormones at a dose of more than 10 mg per day of prednisone or equivalent were allowed in the absence of active autoimmune disease. b) have received a live attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks before the first dose of study drug, or plan to receive a live or live attenuated vaccine during the study; c) major surgery or severe trauma within 4 weeks before the first dose of study drug;
7. Have any active autoimmune disease or history of autoimmune disease, including but not limited to: interstitial pneumonia, enteritis, hepatitis, hypophysitis, vasculitis, nephritis, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism (may be considered after hormone replacement therapy); Patients with psoriasis or complete remission of childhood asthma/allergies without any intervention in adulthood were considered for inclusion, but patients requiring medical intervention with bronchodilators were not included.
8. A history of immunodeficiency, including HIV positivity, other acquired or congenital immunodeficiency disorders, or organ or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation;
9. Presence of uncontrolled cardiac symptoms or diseases, including but not limited to: heart failure above NYHA class Ⅱ, unstable angina pectoris, myocardial infarction within 1 year, and clinically significant supraventricular or ventricular arrhythmias without clinical intervention or poorly controlled after clinical intervention;
