Exclusion criteria

• The primary tumor is upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma of the renal pelvis and ureter
• Patients who have suffered from malignant tumors other than bladder urothelial carcinoma within 5 years before enrollment. However, the following patients are included (eligible for enrollment): ① Patients with locally low-risk prostate cancer (staging ≤T2b, Gleason score ≤7, and PSA ≤ 20ng/ml, with no recurrence after treatment as determined by follow-up PSA levels); ② Patients with low-risk prostate cancer (staging T1/T2a, Gleason score ≤7, and PSA ≤10ng/ml, in the observation phase without treatment; ③ Patients who meet other enrollment criteria but have very low risk of metastasis or death from malignant tumors, and who show no recurrence or metastasis after standard treatment, as confirmed by imaging and disease-specific tumor marker tests, such as fully treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, basal or squamous cell skin cancer; in situ ductal carcinoma after treatment surgery, etc
• Patients with active autoimmune diseases who have required systemic treatment (i.e., long-term use of corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs) within the past two years. Replacement therapy (such as thyroid hormone, insulin, or physiological corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is excluded
• Patients who are expected to have major surgery during the study period or who have undergone major surgery within 4 weeks before dosing and have not fully recovered
• Any immune-related toxicity caused by previous cancer treatments has not recovered to ≤Grade 1 (except for Grade 2 endocrine disorders on stable dose steroid replacement therapy), and/or any other toxicity related to previous anti-cancer treatments (immune-related toxicity excluded) has not recovered to ≤Grade 2, except for alopecia
• Patients who are seropositive for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) or have a history of HIV infection or other acquired immunodeficiency diseases
• Patients who require long-term antiviral medication for hepatitis B or C, where hepatitis B (must meet both HBsAg positivity and HBV DNA ≥2000 IU/ml, excluding drug or other causes of hepatitis), hepatitis C (must meet both anti-HCV antibody positivity and HCV-RNA results greater than the lower limit of detection)
• Uncontrolled stable systemic diseases, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, etc
• History of organ transplantation or stem cell transplantation
• Heart failure (patients classified as NYHA Class III-IV according to the New York Heart Association)
• Significant pulmonary disease (such as shortness of breath at rest or with mild activity or requiring oxygen for any reason)
• Other underlying diseases judged by the investigator before the study that prevent the use of study medication or interfere with disease diagnosis, or have the potential to cause serious complications
• Concurrent other serious infections before dosing
• Alcohol dependence or a history of drug or substance abuse within the last year
• A history of clear neurological or psychiatric disorders, such as epilepsy, dementia, poor compliance, or the presence of peripheral nervous system disorders
• Pregnancy or breastfeeding, or expected to be pregnant or give birth during the trial period
• Known allergy or intolerance to intravenous mitomycin and corresponding excipients
• Patients whom the investigator deems unsuitable for the trial for other reasons
