3. Recurrent (unresectable) or metastatic urothelial carcinoma, Patients with primary urothelial carcinoma, mixed with other tissue components, failed or intolerant to standard treatment, and failed to receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy for 12 months were allowed
4. At least one measurable disease according to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumor (RECIST 1.1)
5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status between 0 and 2
