Inclusion criteria

Participants must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for this study:

• Age and Gender: Aged ≥ 18 years at the time of signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF), regardless of gender.
• Disease Status: Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced solid tumors (AST) or relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (r/r B-NHL) who have failed standard therapy, have no available standard treatment options, are intolerant to, or refuse standard therapy. This includes, but is not limited to, melanoma, renal cell carcinoma (RCC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCCHN), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MZL). Specific requirements for each tumor type are as follows:

Prior treatment must include at least one immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI; e.g., pembrolizumab, toripalimab, pucotenlimab, ipilimumab + nivolumab, atezolizumab) and at least one chemotherapy (e.g., dacarbazine, temozolomide, paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, cisplatin/carboplatin, fotemustine). For patients with BRAF V600, NRAS, or KITmutations, prior treatment must include at least one targeted therapy against the specific mutation and one ICI (as listed above). Patients unsuitable for or intolerant to the aforementioned treatments are excluded.

RCC: Metastatic or unresectable clear cell RCC with PD after ≥1 prior line of therapy or intolerance to ≥1 prior line. Prior treatment must include at least one targeted therapy (e.g., sunitinib, pazopanib, sorafenib, axitinib, lenvatinib, anlotinib, vorolanib + everolimus) and one ICI (e.g., toripalimab, pembrolizumab, benmelstobart, nivolumab, ipilimumab).

NSCLC: Stage IV NSCLC with PD after ≥2 prior lines of systemic therapy. For patients without driver alterations: Prior treatment must include at least one ICI (e.g., pembrolizumab, camrelizumab, tislelizumab, sintilimab, atezolizumab, sugemalimab, toripalimab, penpulimab, serplulimab, nivolumab + ipilimumab, ivonescimab) and/or platinum-based chemotherapy, plus one single-agent therapy (e.g., docetaxel, pemetrexed, gemcitabine, paclitaxel, vinorelbine, anlotinib).

For patients with driver alterations (e.g., EGFRmutations, ALKfusions, ROS1fusions, BRAF V600mutations, NTRKfusions, METexon 14 skipping, RETalterations, KRAS G12Cmutations, or HER2mutations): Prior treatment must include at least one targeted therapy against the specific alteration and one platinum-doublet chemotherapy or single-agent therapy (as listed above). Patients unsuitable for or intolerant to the aforementioned treatments are excluded.

SCCHN: Metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma with PD after ≥2 prior lines of systemic therapy.

Non-nasopharyngeal carcinoma: Prior treatment must include platinum-based chemotherapy and either an ICI (e.g., pembrolizumab, finotonlimab, toripalimab, nivolumab) or an EGFR monoclonal antibody (e.g., cetuximab).

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma: Prior treatment must include platinum-based chemotherapy and an ICI (e.g., camrelizumab, toripalimab, tislelizumab, penpulimab, tagitanlimab). Patients unsuitable for or intolerant to the aforementioned treatments are excluded.
