8. Uncontrollable hypertension, systolic blood pressure \>160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>100 mmHg after optimal medical treatment, history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy.
9. Symptomatic congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Class II-IV). Symptomatic or poorly controlled arrhythmia. History of congenital long QT syndrome or corrected QTc \> 500ms during screening (calculated by Fridericia method).

12. Severe infections that are active or poorly controlled clinically. Severe infection within 4 weeks prior to the initiation of the study, including but not limited to hospitalization due to infection, bacteremia, or complications of severe pneumonia.
13. Active autoimmune diseases that require systemic treatment (such as the use of disease relieving drugs, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressants) have occurred within 2 years prior to the initiation of the study. Allowing the use of alternative therapies (such as thyroxine, insulin, or physiological corticosteroids for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency), with a known history of primary immunodeficiency. Patients with only positive autoimmune antibodies need to confirm the presence of autoimmune diseases based on the judgment of the investigator.
14. Participants who have received local treatment for advanced tumors within 4 weeks prior to the initiation of the study.
15. Participants who have received radiation therapy within 4 weeks prior to the initiation of the study. For participants who receive radiation therapy 4 weeks before the first administration, all of the following conditions must be met before enrollment: no toxic responses related to radiation therapy, no need to take glucocorticoids, excluding radiation pneumonia, radiation hepatitis, and radiation enteritis; palliative radiotherapy for bone metastases lesion is allowed, which must be completed 2 weeks before enrollment.
