Dose: 5 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks (Day 1). Infusion: Diluted in 100 mL saline/5% glucose, administered over 20-60 minutes. Duration: Until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, new antitumor therapy, or up to 1 year.

Progression Management: Continuation post-progression permitted after investigator-patient discussion; permanent discontinuation upon re-progression.

6. Study Endpoints

1. Primary Endpoint(s) \& Definitions Safety Evaluation: Adverse events (treatment-related toxicities) assessed using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) Version 5.0.
2. Secondary Endpoints \& Definitions

   1. Complete Response (CR) Rate: Defined as the proportion of patients achieving complete response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.
   2. Objective Response Rate (ORR): The proportion of patients achieving a reduction in tumor size meeting predefined criteria (Complete Response \[CR\]: disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response \[PR\]: ≥30% reduction in the sum of target lesion diameters) per RECIST V1.1, sustained for a minimum duration.
   3. Disease Control Rate (DCR): Defined as the proportion of patients achieving tumor response (partial response \[PR\] + complete response \[CR\]) or stable disease (SD) per RECIST v1.1, sustained for a minimum required duration.
   4. Duration of Response (DoR): The time from achieving an objective response (CR or PR) to disease progression or recurrence. For example, in lung cancer targeted therapy trials, DoR measures the interval from achieving PR to tumor regrowth or new lesion development.
   5. Median Progression-Free Survival (mPFS): Defined as the median time from treatment initiation to the first documented disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
   6. Median Overall Survival (mOS): Defined as the median time from treatment initiation to death from any cause.

      7.Statistical Analysis Descriptive statistics for demographics, efficacy, and safety data. Kaplan-Meier method for survival analysis (mOS, mPFS). 95% confidence intervals for response rates. AE reporting: Incidence, severity, causality, and outcomes.
