   4. Doppler ultrasound assessment: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50%;
8. Female patients must agree to use contraception (e.g., intrauterine device \[IUD\], oral contraceptives, or condoms) during the study and for 6 months after study completion. A negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 7 days before enrollment is required, and patients must be non-lactating. Male patients must agree to use contraception during the study and for 6 months after study completion;
9. Patients must voluntarily participate in the study, sign the informed consent form, and demonstrate good compliance.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. History of allergic reactions to biological products;
2. Patients with prior or concurrent malignancies within 5 years (except cured basal cell carcinoma of skin or carcinoma in situ of cervix);
3. Any active autoimmune disease or history of autoimmune disorders (including but not limited to: autoimmune hepatitis, interstitial pneumonia, enteritis, vasculitis, nephritis; asthma requiring bronchodilators for medical intervention). Exceptions include: vitiligo, psoriasis, alopecia not requiring systemic therapy, well-controlled type I diabetes, or hypothyroidism with normal thyroid function on replacement therapy;
4. Requirement for immunosuppressive therapy using systemic or absorbable topical corticosteroids (equivalent to prednisone \>10mg/day) within 2 weeks prior to first dose;
5. Any history or evidence of bleeding diathesis regardless of severity; grade ≥3 bleeding events per CTCAE v5.0 within 4 weeks prior to first dose; or presence of unhealed wounds, fractures, active gastrointestinal ulcers, ulcerative colitis, tumors with active bleeding, or other conditions deemed by investigators to potentially cause gastrointestinal hemorrhage or perforation;
6. Patients with severe and/or uncontrolled comorbidities including:

   1. Poorly controlled hypertension (SBP ≥150 mmHg or DBP ≥90 mmHg);
   2. Unstable angina, myocardial infarction, ≥grade 2 congestive heart failure, or arrhythmias requiring treatment (including QTc ≥480ms) within 6 months prior to first dose;
   3. Active or uncontrolled severe infections (≥grade 2 per CTCAE);
   4. Clinically significant liver disease including viral hepatitis (active HBV infection with HBV DNA \>1×10³ copies/mL or \>500 IU/mL; HCV infection with HCV RNA \>1×10³ copies/mL or \>100 IU/mL), decompensated liver disease, or chronic hepatitis requiring antiviral therapy;
   5. HIV-positive status;
   6. Poorly controlled diabetes (fasting glucose ≥grade 2 per CTCAE);
   7. Urinalysis showing proteinuria ≥++ with 24-hour urinary protein \>1.0 g;
7. Administration of live vaccines within 4 weeks prior to treatment or anticipated need during study;
8. Other conditions deemed by investigators to potentially lead to premature study termination, including: severe comorbidities (including psychiatric disorders) requiring concomitant therapy, significant laboratory abnormalities, or social/family factors that may compromise patient safety or data/sample collection.
