• History of or currently central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma or other central nervous system diseases.
• Known to have any active infection of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV),hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV). However, patients with the following conditions can be included in this study: a) Human immunodeficiency virus antibody (HIV-Ab) is negative, or HIVAb is positive but nucleic acid test shows an undetectable viral load (viral suppression is defined as having less than 200 copies of HIV per milliliter of blood) i.e., well-controlled HIV patients can be enrolled. b) Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is negative; if HBsAg or HBcAb is positive, HBV-DNA (HBV deoxyribonucleic acid) < 1000 cps/mL. c) Hepatitis C virus antibody (HCV-Ab) is negative.
• Toxicity except for alopecia and fatigue caused by previous anti-tumour therapy has not been alleviated to grade 1 or below (CTCAE v5.0).
• History of other malignant tumor within 2 years before enrollment, except for skin basal cell carcinoma, skin squamous cell carcinoma, and carcinoma in situ that have undergone possible curative treatment and have not recurred within 5 years after the start of treatment.
• Have received any other investigational drug product within 28 days or 5 halflives of the previous investigational drug (if required) before screening.
• Have used live attenuated vaccines within 4 weeks before the first administration of dexamethasone or are expected to use live attenuated vaccines during the study period.
• Have used systemic immunosuppressive drugs within 4 weeks before the first administration, including but not limited to radiotherapy immunoconjugates, antibody-drug conjugates, immune/cytokines, monoclonal antibodies, etc. Except for continuous corticosteroids at a dose of <10 mg prednisone/day or equivalent.
• History of autoimmune diseases, including but not limited to myocarditis, pneumonia, myasthenia gravis, autoimmune hepatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, Wegener's granulomatosis, multiple sclerosis, vasculitis or glomerulonephritis.
