* is positive for antibodies related to systemic sclerosis;
* diffuse cutaneous sclerosis manifestations or active interstitial lung disease (HRCT suggestive of ground-glass exudates);
* definition of relapsing-refractory: failure of conventional treatment for more than 6 months or recurrence of disease activity after remission.
* Definition of Progressive: Rapid cutaneous progression (\>25% increase in mRSS); or pulmonary progression (10% decrease in FVC, or \>5% decrease in FVC with 15% decrease in DLCO).
* Note: It is sufficient if one of Articles 4 and 5 is fulfilled.
* Relapsed refractory/progressive inflammatory myopathy
* meets the 2017 EULAR/ACR classification criteria for inflammatory myopathies (including DM , PM, ASS, and NM);
* is positive for antibodies to myositis;
* in those with muscle involvement, an MMT-8 score of less than 142 and abnormal findings on at least two of the following five core measurements (PhGA, PtGA, or Extramuscular Disease Activity Score ≥2; Total HAQ Score ≥0.25); Myosin level 1.5 times the upper limit of the normal range); or MMT-8 ≥142 in the presence of active interstitial lung disease (HRCT suggestive of ground-glass exudates);
* Definition of relapse refractory: failure of conventional treatment for more than 6 months or recurrence of disease activity after remission.
* Definition of progressive: the presence of exacerbation of myositis or rapidly progressive interstitial pneumonia.
* Note: It is sufficient if one of Articles 4 and 5 is fulfilled.
* Relapsed Refractory/Progressive Immune Thrombocytopenia
* meets the 2019 American Society of Hematology (ASH) classification criteria for immune thrombocytopenia;
* have bone marrow morphology characterized by increased or normal megakaryocytes with impaired maturation;
* exclude other secondary thrombocytopenia
* Definition of recurrent refractory: a patient who fails to achieve a satisfactory outcome after first-line standard therapy (e.g., glucocorticoids), including a full dose and course of therapy, i.e., platelet counts that cannot be maintained at a safe level (generally considered to be platelet counts \> 30 × 10⁹ /L and without overt bleeding symptoms).
* Definition of progressive: a sustained decline in platelet count over the course of the disease, or a progressive worsening of bleeding symptoms, which may be accompanied by signs such as splenomegaly, and a progressively worse response to conventional therapy.
* Note: It is sufficient if one of Articles 4 and 5 is fulfilled.

Exclusion Criteria:

* A history of severe drug allergies or sensitivities;
* the presence or suspicion of fungal, bacterial, viral or other infections that are uncontrolled or require treatment

* those with intolerable cardiac function;
* subjects with congenital immunoglobulin defects.
* history of malignant tumors within the last five years.
* end-stage renal failure;
* subjects with positive Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), Hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) and peripheral blood HBV DNA titer higher than the upper limit of the test; subjects with positive antibody to Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and peripheral blood HCV RNA; subjects with positive antibody to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV); and subjects with a positive test for Syphilis;
* mental illness and severe cognitive impairment;
* have participated in other clinical trials within 3 months prior to enrollment;
