• Patients should be compliant and cooperative with safety and survival follow-up.

You may not qualify if:

• Participate in other interventional clinical studies;
• Previous or concurrent other malignancies;
• History of liver transplantation or undergo liver transplantation;
• History of hypersensitivity to macromolecular protein preparations, the study drug or any of the excipients;
• Active autoimmune disease or history of autoimmune diseases (such as the following, but not limited to: autoimmune hepatitis, interstitial pneumonia, uveitis, enteritis, hepatitis, hypophysitis, vasculitis, nephritis, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, previous thyroid surgery); Require bronchodilators for medical intervention of asthma; the patient has vitiligo or has complete remission of asthma in childhood, no intervention is required after adults can be included;
