Subjects with asymptomatic BM (without neurological symptoms, not using steroids, tumor lesions≤1.5cm) may participate in condition that the tumor lesion should be regularly evaluated using identical imaging modality for each assessment, either MRI or CT scans; At the time of enrollment, patients still had ≥2 toxic side effects (except for hair loss, hearing loss, tinnitus, dry mouth or platinum-induced grade 2 neurotoxicity) caused by previous anti-tumor treatment; Has known serious allergic reaction to study medication or any component of the product, and has known serious allergic reaction to other monoclonal antibodies (NCI CTCAE v5.0≥3); Has received anti-tumor therapy, including chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, and etc. within 4 weeks of the first dose of treatment, except palliative radiotherapy for bone pain; Has received any Chinese traditional medicine for anti-cancer purpose within 1 week of the first dose of treatment; Has undergone important surgery within 4 weeks prior to first dose of treatment or has scheduled an important surgery during the study; Has received immunosuppressive drugs during the study or within 2 weeks prior to first dose of treatment, except for the following situations: Intranasal, inhaled, topical corticosteroids (e.g. intra-articular injections); Physiological dose for systemic prednisolone (≤10mg/d or equivalent); Short-term administration (≤7days) of corticosteroids for prophylaxis or treatment against non-autoimmune allergic disease Has known active, and/ or history of autoimmune disease (systemic lupus erythematous, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, AITD, multiple sclerosis, vasculitis, glomerulonephritis), and is likely to get a recurrence, or is at high-risk (organ-transplanted patients need immunotherapy), except those with stable type 1 DM after fixed dose of insulin administration , or those with autoimmune hypothyroidism only require HRT, or those with skin disorders that does not require systemic treatment (e.g. eczema, rash <10% BSA, psoriasis without symptoms around eyes) Has known interstitial lung disease, such as interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, except asymptomatic drug-induced pneumonitis or radiation pneumonitis Has a known history of HIV Has known active Hepatitis B (e.g. HBsAg reactive) or Hepatitis C(e.g. HCV RNA [quantitative] is detected) has uncontrolled active infections within 2 weeks before enrollment Has received a live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment, except Is with clinical symptoms, required clinical intervention or stable time less than 4 weeks of serous cavity effusion (such as pleural effusion and ascites); Has severe conditions, including NYHA III heart failure, IHD, history of MI within 3 months prior to first dose of study treatment, poorly controlled DM (FBS≥10mmol/L) or poorly controlled hypertension (SBP≥160mmHg and/ or DBP≥100mmHg) Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial Is currently participating in other clinical trials, or has participated in a study of an investigational agent and received study therapy, or used an investigational device, any of whose end date is within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication has alcohol or drug addiction; Subjects who are considered unsuitable for participating in this study for various reasons at the discretion of the investigator，such as inability to comply with study and/or follow-up procedures.
