Exclusion criteria

• 1. Patients who received immune checkpoint inhibitors before enrollment, or those who directly received another stimulatory or co-inhibitory T-cell receptor (such as CTLA-4, CD137); 2.

Other cancers that occurred in the past (within the past 5 years) or simultaneously, excluding non-melanoma skin cancer and carcinoma in situ; 10.
