5. At least one extracranial lesion according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1) for response assessment, including measurable and non-measurable lesions. The number of subjects with all non-measurable lesions should be no more than 1/3 of the total enrolled subjects.

6. Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks, per investigator's discretion.

• Received previous immunotherapy, such as PD-1 antibody, PD-L1 antibody or CTLA-4 antibody, etc. Subjects never experienced a toxicity leading to permanent discontinuation of prior immunotherapy.

• Previously received anti-tumor herbal medicine or medications which content herbal ingredient approved for anticancer, with an interval of ≥ 2 weeks prior to the first dose.

8. Patients with asymptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastasis or asymptomatic brain metastasis after treatment, free of disease progression by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan and be stable for at least 4 weeks without steroid therapy.

• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 109/L.

• Absolute white blood cell count (WBC) ≥ 3.0 × 109/L.

• Platelet count ≥ 100 × 109/L.

• Hemoglobin ≥ 100 g/L (no blood transfusion within 2 weeks prior to signing informed consent).

• Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN).

• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤2.5 × ULN (ALT and AST ≤5 × ULN for subjects with liver metastases).

• Serum total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 x ULN.

• International normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 2 x ULN or activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 x ULN (except for patients receiving anticoagulant therapy).

10. Men with reproductive capacity or women with the possibility of pregnancy must use highly effective contraceptive methods (such as oral contraceptives, intrauterine contraceptive devices, abstinence or barrier contraception combined with spermicide) during the trial, and continue contraception for 12 months after the end of treatment.

11. Voluntarily agrees to participate by signing written informed consent and is willing and able to comply with protocol and scheduled visits.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Subjects are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:

1. Patients with other malignant tumors within 5 years before enrollment, except cured cervical carcinoma in situ and cured cutaneous basal cell carcinoma.

2. Failure to recover from previously treated adverse reactions to CTCAE 5.0 grade ≤ 1, except for residual alopecia effects.

3. Active, or history of, autoimmune diseases that may recur (eg, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune thyroid disease, multiple sclerosis, vasculitis, glomerulonephritis, etc.), or are at high risk (eg, receiving an immunosuppressive treatment for an organ transplant). however, subjects with the following are allowed to enroll:

• Type I diabetes that is stable after a fixed dose of insulin.

• Only requiring hormone replacement therapy for autoimmune hypothyroidism.

• Skin diseases not requiring systemic treatment (such as eczema, rash accounting for less than 10% of body surface, psoriasis without ophthalmic symptoms, etc.).

4. Planning major surgery during the study, the 28-day screening period included.

5. Requiring systemic corticosteroids (dose equivalent to >10 mg prednisone/day) or other immunosuppressive drugs within 14 days before the first dose of study treatment or during the study. The following are allowed:

• Use of topical or inhaled glucocorticoids

• A brief course of corticosteroids (≤7 days) for prophylaxis or for treatment of non-autoimmune conditions.

6. Currently suffering from acute lung disorders, interstitial lung disease, interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, radiation pneumonitis, etc.

7. Uncontrolled systematic diseases and stable after treatment, such as cardiovascular disorders (unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction 6 months prior to the first dose, etc.) diabetes, hypertension, etc.

8. Arterial or venous thrombotic or embolic events, such as cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack), deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within 6 months prior to first dose.

9. History of infection with human immunodeficiency virus, or other acquired, congenital immunodeficiency diseases, or history of organ transplantation, or history of stem cell transplantation.

10. Patients with a history of pulmonary tuberculosis or pulmonary tuberculosis at screening.
